About The Customer
The CPC Corporation is a state-run enterprise in Taiwan, responsible for the development and supply of petroleum and natural gas. As a cornerstone of Taiwan’s petrochemical industry, CPC is the leading enterprise in the country, employing approximately 14,977 employees and operating various functional units across the island. As the number one gas supplier in Taiwan, CPC gas stations are expected to provide speedy and comprehensive services.
The Challenge
CPC Corporation, Taiwan's leading enterprise in the development and supply of petroleum and natural gas, faced a challenge in ensuring operational efficiency in semi-outdoor environments. The company needed a high-performance POS system that could withstand environmental challenges associated with gas stations, including resistance to water, dust, shock, and oil. Additionally, the company needed to protect their customer database from unauthorized employee access, making traditional POS systems inappropriate.
The Solution
Advantech recommended its ABox computer with diverse I/O for connecting an external monitor and keyboard to provide a system that could function as a POS terminal. This strategy would enable managers to lock the computer in the checkout counter and thereby prevent unauthorized access to confidential financial information. The ABox Series computers are equipped with the latest Intel processor to deliver the extreme performance required, and their ultra-compact design saves installation space. The system’s fanless aluminum housing ensures not only ruggedness and increased heat dissipation, but also water, dust, shock, and oil resistance/tolerance, making it the ideal solution for outdoor environments.
Operational Impact
  • The ABox solution provided powerful computing performance, facilitating the provision of excellent customer service.
  • The fanless design of the ABox ensured sufficient water, dust, and oil resistance for outdoor applications.
  • The aluminum housing of the ABox increased ruggedness and heat dissipation, extending the product's life.
  • The rich I/O of the ABox supported various media outputs for diverse applications.
