Industrial PC Market Size:

The industrial PC market is expected to grow from USD 6.916 billion in 2025 to USD 8.827 billion in 2030, at a CAGR of 5.00%.

Industrial PCs are computers specifically made for use in industries and are highly reliable and efficient. The computers are designed to operate in harsh environmental conditions like extreme temperatures, high humidity, high shock, and vibration, among other conditions, and have a longer product life cycle. The rise in industrial automation worldwide is a major factor anticipated to drive the industrial PC market growth. This is increasing the demand for industrial PCs to handle numerous processes in the industrial sector. Additionally, its advantages, such as increased productivity, reduced operational costs, and improved quality of products, are expected to propel the market growth. Industrial PCs are expensive initially and require high maintenance costs, which is anticipated to negatively impact market growth during the forecast period.

The Industrial PC market has been classified based on type, end-user, and geography. By type, the market has been classified based on Embedded IPC, DIN Rail IPC, Panel IPC, Box IPC, and Rack Mount IPC. By end-user, the segmentation has been done into IT & Telecom, chemical, aerospace & defense, semiconductor & electronics, energy & power, automotive, and others. Geographically, the Industrial PC market has been categorized into North America, South America, Europe, the Middle East and Africa, and the Asia Pacific.

Industrial PC Market Growth Drivers:

• Rise in automation in the manufacturing and industrial sectors.

One of the key factors supplementing the Industrial PC market growth includes the rise in industrial automation worldwide. Various companies are moving towards the use of IoT technology. Industrial automation includes the use of industrial PCs and robots to handle several processes. The demand for industrial robots has witnessed significant growth in the global market. The Association for Advancing Automation, in its global report, stated that the sale of industrial robots during the third quarter of 2024 witnessed significant growth. The association stated that during the timeframe, the sale of robots grew by 8.8% in the North American region compared to the same timeline in 2023. The association further stated that the automotive sector contributed to about 44% or 3,216 units of the total industrial robot sales. Meanwhile, the sale of industrial robots in the non-automotive sector was recorded at 4,113 units.

According to the Government of Canada, industrial automation provides advantages such as increasing production output rates, improving quality and consistency, increasing product manufacturing flexibility, improving working conditions, reducing material waste and increasing yield, saving space, and reducing costs. Due to the various advantages provided by industrial automation, companies are adopting it at a fast pace. This rise in industrial automation is expected to grow even further and propel the industrial PC market during the forecast period.

Industrial PC Market Restraints:

• Industrial PCs are highly expensive.

Along with the numerous advantages that an industrial PC provides, it comes with the disadvantage of a high initial investment. The additional features and many other components in industrial PCs that the traditional computer does not possess make them more expensive, which prevents companies from adopting industrial PCs, hindering their market growth. Industrial PCs require high repair & maintenance costs, along with occupying a large space, which is inconvenient for smaller firms. Moreover, operating an industrial PC requires a person to be skilled in it; therefore, further costs and time are necessary to train people to manage it. Hence, until the price of industrial PCs is reduced, these factors are anticipated to obstruct its market growth in the coming years.
