Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2019–2026.

Industrial PC Market Outlook - 2026 

Industrial PC is a computing platform, which is designed to operate in extreme environment such as high fluctuation in temperature, humidity, moisture and aggressive dust.  Industrial PCs are similar to desktop PCs, which are used personally and commercially in terms of processing, storage, and communications, and offer flexible interface. These PCs are comparatively more expensive, reliable, efficient, and less power-consuming devices, which have a long service life. Other major factor which differentiate industrial PCs for commercial PCs is that commercial PCs operate in a safe and clean environment. On the contrary, industrial PCs are capable enough to work under conditions such as high-range temperature, moisture, dust, and shocks & vibrations.

Industrial PCs are majorly applicable in industrial automation, aerospace, transportation management, solar power, and wind generators. Consistent and efficient performance in challenging environments delivered by these PCs is the primary consideration, as they can operate within the range from —40°C to +80°C. Industrial PCs consume low power, as they operate on batteries such as nickel cadmium, nickel metal hydride, or other renewable power sources such as solar power or wind energy. Crystal International Group a Hong Kong based company provides embedded computer system consist an extreme high application and operate in harsh environments named “RE0412” it is designed in such a manner that meets with both requirements and specifications of user and PCs.

The growth of the global industrial PC market is expected to be driven by factors such as emergence of IoT in various industries such as manufacturing, oil & gas, automotive, food and beverages. Integration with IoT technologies makes the operation convenient & automated, minimizes the chances of errors, and helps in data acquisition & process control. Hence, increase in demand by various industries for energy-efficient manufacturing operations boost the growth of the industrial PC market.

In addition, increase in trend of digitalization in various manufacturing sectors, surge in adoption of IoT among various industries, and high investment in R&D to provide customization services are the key drivers of the industrial PC market. However, this process requires huge investment; thus, the initial cost for installation of industrial PCs is high, which hampers the market growth. In addition, security issues due to operation in harsh environments limits the growth of the industrial PC market. On the contrary, surge in demand for smart energy solutions such as computerized numerical control (CNC) machines & panel PCs and increase in emphasis on robust IT Infrastructure are anticipated to offer lucrative opportunities for the industrial PC industry globally.
