What B2B Buyers Look for in Computing Hardware
B2B companies buy computers for production lines, kiosks, fleets, digital signage, back-office operations and embedded systems. These buyers usually need a fixed configuration that stays the same across many units, a stated operating system, and hardware that runs continuously in offices, factories and public spaces. The Thinvent range is built for this use. It covers industrial PCs, mini PCs, a panel PC, an all-in-one style Industrial Panel PC, and thin clients, with processors from Intel, AMD and ARM.

Use Cases for Business Deployments
Industrial PCs such as the IPC5 and IPC3 suit factory automation, machine control and data acquisition. The IPC5 with Dual LAN supports networks that need two wired connections. Mini PCs such as the Aero and Treo fit reception desks, meeting rooms, point-of-sale and office work where space is limited. The 15" Industrial Panel PC combines a display and computer in one unit for kiosks and operator panels. The Micro 5R thin client runs a single task from a central server and uses little power. Models with 64 GB of memory and 1 TB of storage suit data-heavy workloads.
Thinvent Products for B2B Buyers
The Thinvent range gives B2B buyers a choice of form factors, processors and operating systems.
