In recent years, the rapid development of industries such as power, metallurgy, petrochemicals, environmental protection, transportation, and construction in China has led to a gradually increasing demand for industrial PCs. The industrial PC China market size has been steadily expanding, with an average annual compound growth rate of around 10% by 2019. From the perspective of application fields, industrial PCs are mainly used in industrial sectors, with significant portions in robotics, packaging, semiconductors, etc. China's industrial PC supply channels mainly come from manufacturers in mainland China and Taiwan, with a market distribution that is uneven, where some companies hold absolute market shares. Due to the high complexity of industrial PC products, low price sensitivity, and high gross profit margins, which are generally around 30%.
In recent years, China's macroeconomic situation has been quite severe, and industry structures are facing adjustments, significantly impacting the industrial automation industry. Although the downturns in key application industries for industrial PCs such as petroleum, petrochemicals, and metallurgy have caused a decline in the market size of industrial computers within the industrial automation industry, the increasing demand from other application sectors such as transportation, medical, finance, and communications has supported the growth of the industrial PC China market.
Industrial PC China began in the 1950s and 1960s. After years of accumulation, China's industrial PC enterprises are undergoing a transition from "Made in China" to "Created in China". With the continuous deepening of social informatization, key tasks in many industries of the national economy will increasingly rely on industrial computers. Low-cost industrial automation, based on industrial computers as common technology and fundamental platforms, is becoming the mainstream technology route for upgrading and transforming traditional industries. Industrial PC China manufacturers are receiving increasing attention. With the rapid development of industries such as power, metallurgy, petrochemicals, environmental protection, transportation, and construction, from digital home set-top boxes and digital televisions to bank ATMs, highway toll collection systems, gas station management, and manufacturing production line control, the informatization demands in financial, governmental, and defense sectors continue to rise, resulting in significant demand for industrial computers. The future of the industrial PC China market looks very promising.
Industrial PC China is mainly used in fields like robotics, packaging, and semiconductors. Among them, semiconductors account for 11.7%, packaging 11%, and industrial robots 10.5%, while other fields have a lower application share of less than 10%.
Intelligent computers possess functions such as problem-solving, logical reasoning, knowledge processing, and knowledge base management. Future computers will be able to accept natural language commands, have vision, hearing, and tactile senses, but might no longer have the current shape of computers, and their architecture will be different. Robots already developed can replace humans in dangerous environments and even play chess with humans, fundamentally expanding the capabilities of computers, enabling them to increasingly take over human cognitive activities and mental work.
