1. Project Background & Pain Points

A provincial power dispatch center oversees the operation of 50+ substations, requiring 24/7 real-time monitoring of grid data. Its old console faced critical mechanical issues:

• Low Load-Bearing: Supporting 8 24-inch monitors caused the tabletop to warp in 6 months, misaligning data displays;
• Poor EMI Shielding: Electromagnetic interference from nearby transformers disrupted cable signals, leading to 2-3 data lag incidents monthly;
• Inflexible Layout: Fixed structure made it hard to add new monitoring devices, hindering grid expansion.

The center needed a console with strong mechanical performance to ensure uninterrupted dispatch work.

2. Console Mechanical Solutions

A customized steel structure console was deployed, with key mechanical features:

• High-Strength Frame: 2.5mm Q345 steel frame (compressive strength 600MPa) and 18mm fire-retardant composite tabletop, bearing 100kg/m² without deformation;
• EMI Protection: 0.5mm aluminum alloy shielding layer in cabinets, blocking 1kHz-1GHz interference, reducing signal lag to zero;
• Modular Design: 1.2m-wide detachable modules, allowing easy addition of 2 monitors in 30 minutes, fitting future expansion.

3. Implementation Results

After 8 months of use:

• Stability: No tabletop warping or frame displacement, ensuring accurate data display;
• Reliability: Zero EMI-related incidents, improving dispatch efficiency by 25%;
• Flexibility: Smoothly added 4 new monitoring devices, adapting to grid expansion.

This console has become a go-to choice for local power departments, proving mechanical robustness is key for critical dispatch scenarios.
