Hello Mates,
National USB 6000 Series DAQ could be very useful for a bunch of industrial applications but they're quit expensive when a panel PC is included on the system. Is there other vendors alternatives?

What are you looking for? You mention the PC is a large part of the cost. I don't think $200ish is very expensive for an industrial device. Would something with a wired or wireless Ethernet interface save on the number of computers you need?
Look at
LabJack
. Their prices will probably not be much, if any, lower, but they have some features like Ethernet connectivity and Lua scripting (in the T-series) that might cut down on the number of computers you need. Obviously you could make something with an Arduino, but I wouldn't mess with that in an industrial environment.

Actually NI Hardware is quite expensive, a USB-6009 is at $524 at newark, the importing costs in Brazil is often ridiculous so this could almost double.
I'll check labjack, tks!
