Durability: Balancing MIL-SPEC Standards with Commercial Ruggedness</span></strong></p> <div id="attachment_68741" style="width: 362px" class="wp-caption alignright"><a href="https://systelusa.com/products/raven-strike-ii/"><img decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-68741" class="wp-image-68741" src="https://www.defenseadvancement.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/How-to-Select-a-Rugged-Computer-RS-II-300x225.jpg" alt="How to Select a Rugged Computer" width="352" height="264" srcset="https://www.defenseadvancement.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/How-to-Select-a-Rugged-Computer-RS-II-300x225.jpg 300w, https://www.defenseadvancement.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/How-to-Select-a-Rugged-Computer-RS-II-173x130.jpg 173w, https://www.defenseadvancement.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/How-to-Select-a-Rugged-Computer-RS-II.jpg 450w" sizes="(max-width: 352px) 100vw, 352px" /></a><p id="caption-attachment-68741" class="wp-caption-text">A Raven-Strike II unit being set up on our in-house shock and vibration table to undergo MIL-Composite Two-Wheeled Trailer operational vibration test: MIL-STD-810H, Method 514.8, Procedure I, Category 4</p></div> <p class="p1"><span class="s1">The hallmark of a rugged computer is its ability to endure tough conditions, but not all rugged devices are created equal. Determining the necessary ruggedization level is critical, particularly when weighing MIL-SPEC compliance against commercial rugged standards.</span></p> <ul class="ul1"> <li class="li1"><span class="s1">MIL-SPEC rugged computers are designed to meet stringent military requirements, including MIL-STD-810H (environmental durability), MIL-STD-461G (electromagnetic compatibility), and MIL-STD-1275E (vehicle power systems). These devices are ideal for applications where extreme reliability is paramount, such as battlefield operations.</span></li> <li class="li1"><span class="s1">Commercial rugged computers, while not meeting military standards, adhere to industrial certifications like IEC 60068 (environmental testing) and IEC 60529 (protection from dust and water). These are well-suited for industries like construction, logistics, and emergency services.</span></li> </ul> <p class="p1"><span class="s1">By working closely with customers to understand their Concept of Operations (CONOPS) and environmental challenges, manufacturers can tailor the ruggedization level to the operational demands. This customization ensures mission reliability without over-engineering and inflating costs.</span></p> <p><img decoding="async" class=" wp-image-68742 aligncenter" src="https://www.defenseadvancement.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/How-to-Select-a-Rugged-Computer-Table-300x285.jpg" alt="How to Select a Rugged Computer" width="631" height="599" srcset="https://www.defenseadvancement.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/How-to-Select-a-Rugged-Computer-Table-300x285.jpg 300w, https://www.defenseadvancement.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/How-to-Select-a-Rugged-Computer-Table-768x729.jpg 768w, https://www.defenseadvancement.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/How-to-Select-a-Rugged-Computer-Table-137x130.jpg 137w, https://www.defenseadvancement.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/How-to-Select-a-Rugged-Computer-Table.jpg 792w" sizes="(max-width: 631px) 100vw, 631px" /></p> <p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1">2. Total Cost of Ownership (TCO): Beyond the Initial Price</span></strong></p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1">The upfront cost of a rugged computer represents only a fraction of its true expense over time. A comprehensive evaluation of TCO must take into account a variety of factors, not least longevity and durability which ensures the rugged computer is engineered to minimize failures, reducing downtime and repair costs.</span></p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1">TCO also includes support and lifecycle management, such a costs for warranty, obsolescence management, and technical support must be factored in, as well as regulatory compliance, i.e., the certifications for programs like Trade Agreements Act (TAA) compliance or “Made in the USA” criteria that can affect costs.</span></p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1">Higher levels of ruggedization typically increase unit costs due to advanced materials and testing. However, manufacturers like us emphasize a partnership model, offering long-term support to maximize value while aligning ruggedization with operational needs and budgets.</span></p> <p class="p1"><strong><span class="s1">3.
