We have used the D510MO and now the D525MW with good latency and fine parallel port operation. These boards dissipate less than 12 W (actually, I think more like half that with EMC running), and have no fan. You can get a SATA SSD for the disk. There are a variety of "car computer" LCD monitors, and some have USB touch screens that can be used. We have used them with the touchy interface. For this, you need a red button (stop), a green button (go) and a jog encoder. The older D510 could use a pico-psu to run from 12 V. I don't know, but I suspect Pico-PSU also has a power supply model for the D525, but it would be a slightly different model.
I just built a system with the D525 that is totally fanless, using a commercial case with built-in PS. It is not hermetic, however.
