Edge AI Computers & Industrial PCs for Environments That Break Standard Hardware
BITECH manufactures edge AI computers, fanless box PCs, and rugged panel PCs for deployments where standard hardware fails — on vehicles and mobile robots, in outdoor and roadside enclosures, on energy infrastructure, and on factory floors. Isolated I/O, wide-range DC power, fanless wide-temperature construction, and a 10-year lifecycle commitment, engineered and built in Shenzhen.
Most of our work starts with a deployment, not a part number. When no catalogue product fits, we engineer the board to your envelope — custom dimensions, I/O and BIOS — in 1–3 months, from 100 units

Engineering Pillars
Industrial PC engineering: resilience & deterministic architecture
Three measurable criteria drive every design decision in our fanless industrial computers. Full technical depth lives in the linked whitepapers.

Rugged Industrial Panel PCs & HMI
100% Two-Stage Burn-In Testing — 18h + 18h
Failures belong in our factory, not in your field deployment.
Every BITECH industrial computer undergoes a two-stage burn-in process before shipment: 18 hours at motherboard level plus full interface verification, then 18 hours after final assembly. This process is applied to 100% of production units, not statistical samples, with test records linked to each unit’s serial number.
18-Hour Industrial Motherboard Burn-In Test
Board-Level Validation Before Assembly
Before the motherboard enters final assembly, it runs continuously under load for 18 hours. The test verifies CPU stability under sustained load, DDR memory stability, SSD / storage operation, power delivery and voltage stability, thermal behavior of CPU, VRM and memory, LAN, USB, COM, CAN and other onboard interfaces, plus watchdog, RTC and BIOS functions.
18-Hour Complete Industrial PC Burn-In Test
Final-System Validation After Assembly
After the motherboard is installed in the fanless enclosure, the complete industrial PC undergoes another 18-hour burn-in test. This second-stage test verifies sustained CPU and memory load, SSD read/write operation, complete-system temperature monitoring, power stability, final I/O verification, fanless thermal performance inside the enclosure, and automatic power-on and watchdog functions where configured. Only units that complete the full validation process are released for shipment.

Engineering FAQs
Questions engineers ask before they specify
Lead times, isolation ratings, lifecycle, BSPs and deployment limits — answered without the marketing layer.
What is the typical sample lead time?
It depends on the level of customization:
- Standard platforms (AE and AP series) — samples ship within 10 days.
- Custom carrier board — approximately 4 weeks to sample and validate.
- Fully custom mainboard designed to your mechanical envelope — 1–3 months from requirements review to first articles.
Is there an MOQ for OEM or private-label programs?
Yes. Turnkey OEM and private-label programs start at a minimum order quantity of 100 units. Non-recurring engineering costs are quoted upfront, before you commit — so budgeting for bespoke I/O, enclosure and BIOS requirements is transparent from the start.
Do you provide schematic review and integration support?
Yes. Our application engineers provide integration support including 3D STEP models for mechanical fit, Linux BSPs and SDKs, and schematic reviews for customized carrier board designs — so the hardware integrates cleanly into your architecture rather than being handed over at the box.
How do you support a 10-year lifecycle for industrial PCs?
Through strict bill of materials control and a modular System-on-Module architecture. Decoupling the compute module from the carrier board lets us manage component obsolescence proactively: when a component reaches end of life, we provide a pin-compatible upgrade path, so you avoid a full mechanical redesign or re-certification.
Changes are handled under formal PCN with last-time-buy notice issued before anything moves.
What operating systems and BSPs do you support?
Kernel-level support and custom Board Support Packages for Ubuntu, Debian and RT-Linux, alongside Windows 10 / 11 IoT Enterprise compatibility on x86 platforms. Our BSPs include documented APIs for native CAN, GPIO and watchdog timer integration.
One constraint worth knowing early: Arm platforms such as RK3588 run Linux or Android only — if your application requires Windows, the x86 platforms are the path.
How do your fanless computers manage heat in extreme environments?
Through passive cooling engineered per platform. Custom extruded aluminium chassis act as the heatsink, combined with controlled thermal pad placement and thermal simulation during mechanical design.
Systems operate reliably from −40 °C to +60 °C, with selected platforms rated to +80 °C. Because there are no fans, there are no vents to admit dust and no bearings to fail.
What quality assurance tests are performed before shipment?
Every unit — not a statistical sample — passes an 18-hour full-load burn-in before leaving our Shenzhen facility, with serial-number traceability and component lot tracking.
Products are compliant with CE, FCC, RoHS and UKCA, and are tested to MIL-STD-810G methods for shock and vibration for mobile and heavy-industrial deployments.
How do your systems handle ground loops and interface integrity?
Isolated platforms provide galvanic isolation rated to 4000 V withstand on COM, DIO and CAN interfaces — an electrical firewall that stops ground loops and field surges at the interface, before they cascade into the core.
For motion and fieldbus systems we use native hardware CAN / CAN FD controllers with deterministic timing, rather than software-emulated USB bridges, so bus timing stays predictable under load.
Isolation is specified per deployment rather than fixed on every model: a motor-drive network or vehicle bus gets it; a clean cabinet install on a unified ground doesn't need to pay for it.
Can your computers be deployed on vehicles or outdoors?
Yes — both are core deployments for us, not exceptions.
Vehicles and mobile equipment: wide-range 9–36 V DC input with ignition control, low-voltage cutoff to prevent battery drain when parked, and transient protection tested to ISO 7637-2 and ISO 16750-2, together with 4000 V isolated CAN and RS-485 for the vehicle bus.
Outdoor and roadside: sealed enclosures rated IP65 and above, fanless wide-temperature construction, and aviation (circular locking) connectors where standard ports would compromise the seal.
Do I actually need an industrial PC for this?
Not always. If the deployment is a clean, climate-controlled cabinet on conditioned power, with no fieldbus and easy physical access, a commercial machine is often the correct engineering call — and we will tell you so.
The premium on industrial hardware buys thermal design without a fan, a power input that tolerates a factory, isolated fieldbus, and a BOM that doesn't change silently. Whether that's worth paying for depends on your environment and your cost of downtime.
