The EMEA Market for Industrial PCs - 2006 Edition

SUMMARY

The EMEA market for industrial PCs is expected to experience a CAGR of 8% through to 2010 with an estimated market size of nearly €750 million. A contributory factor is the drive for increasing machine efficiency and flexibility by end-users, as they call for newer and more sophisticated industrial PCs.

"The recent introduction of dual core processors will have a significant impact on the future market for industrial PCs. These processors which deliver considerably more processing capacity without a comparable increase in power consumption will allow a more efficient use of industrial PCs. Benefits to end-users include reduced cooling requirements and lower running costs."

This is one conclusion of the latest IMS Research study on the EMEA market for industrial PCs. The report analysed four different product types and found that panel industrial PCs was the largest market accounting for over 47% of the market in terms of revenues. This product type was also expected to maintain its position as the leading contributor in the industrial PCs market by 2010.

The report contains a wealth of industry data including market size estimates with forecasts to 2010, and further market breakdowns by industrial PC type, geographic region and end-user sector. Also included is an analysis of the competitive environment and further market segmentations for the panel industrial PC sector by screen size and input method.
