Size overview
Use screen size as the entry point, then confirm the full industrial configuration.
Screen size is only the first filter. Buyers still need to confirm OS, CPU, ports, front protection, and installation method before sampling.
Buyer needs and pain points
- A 21.5 inch panel pc can be the right display size, but buyers still need to confirm touch type, resolution, brightness, and operator viewing distance.
- Cabinet cutout, VESA position, cable exit direction, and front-panel sealing can affect whether the unit fits the machine.
- Software load, OS, serial ports, LAN ports, storage, and power input should be confirmed before choosing the exact hardware platform.

FAQ for this size category
What information should I send for a fast quotation?
Send screen size, OS, CPU level, required I/O ports, mounting method, quantity, target market, certification needs, and expected delivery time.
Do you support OEM or private label projects?
Yes. We can support logo, packaging, boot screen, labeling, accessory kit, and model naming after the specification is confirmed.
What is the typical lead time?
Sample and mass production lead times depend on configuration and quantity. Standard models are usually faster than custom mechanical or OS projects.
How do I choose between Windows, Android, and Linux panel PCs?
Choose Windows for SCADA, MES, vision software, and legacy industrial applications. Choose Android for terminals, kiosks, and simple UI workflows. Choose Linux when the project already has a Linux control stack or needs embedded customization.
What does IP65 mean for an industrial panel PC?
IP65 usually means dust protection and water jet protection for the rated area. Many panel PCs are IP65 on the front panel only, so buyers should confirm whether the requirement is front-only or full enclosure protection.
