Explore our leading custom small desktop components, business laptops, and industrial mini computing platforms built to high standards of reliability.
An Analysis of Market Integration, Structural Demands, and the Evolution of Small Form Factor (SFF) Micro-Hosts and Embedded Terminals.
The global demand for Small Desk Top computing—including Mini PCs, Fanless industrial hosts, and micro-computers—has experienced exponential growth over the past decade. Industrial facilities, smart clinics, commercial offices, and educational institutes are shifting away from traditional bulky chassis. Modern businesses demand high-density computing that maximizes spatial efficiency while maintaining high thermal performance.
Key drivers of this transition include the maturity of low-power high-performance micro-architectures (such as Intel Core i7/i5/i3 platforms with Iris Xe Graphics) and the rise of edge-computing frameworks. Because small desktop computers operate in environments ranging from commercial offices to desert fields, factories must focus on custom design capability, reliability under thermal stress, and broad mechanical adaptivity.
"Miniaturization is no longer a luxury; it is a structural necessity of modern digital infrastructure. Designing and manufacturing at this scale requires deep system-level integration."
In Shenzhen, a city where technology and innovation intertwine, countless entrepreneurs set out every day with the dream of changing the world. They may want to subvert the home audio-visual experience with a mini host, use customized laptops to give wings to education in remote areas, or utilize industrial computers to promote the intelligent transformation of factories... But the reality is often: the needs of small brands are always overwhelmed by the standardization of the big market.
So, Jinghong was born.
In 2014, we started with a simple belief: "No matter how small the demand is, it deserves to be taken seriously." For 9 years, we have been deeply involved in the field of customization. From mini hosts to industrial computers, from laptops to fanless embedded devices, Jinghong has never stopped exploring how to use technology to "reduce the burden" of entrepreneurs' creativity. We understand the unique challenges faced by growing hardware enterprises:
At Jinghong, these are solved challenges. Our production line has customized palm-sized medical terminals for rural clinics in Europe, built reinforced notebooks for desert environments for start-ups in the Middle East, and designed cost-effective all-in-one computers for African educational institutions. Behind our annual sales of 100,000 units, there are 100,000 unique stories.
How we guarantee long-term stability and absolute hardware reliability at the component level.
We work as a close engineering partner, rather than a disconnected outsourcing supplier. Our integration process covers mechanical, electrical, and thermal engineering, ensuring that customized micro-hosts perform exactly as expected in challenging target environments.
We offer absolute design freedom. There is no rigid minimum order quantity (MOQ) barrier—1 unit can be customized. From initial technical drawings to component layout designs and finalized industrial compliance, our R&D team works directly with you.
Our status as an Intel Strategic Partner allows us to incorporate advanced x86 core architectures at highly competitive rates. You obtain enterprise-level, high-bandwidth processing and advanced Iris Xe media controllers with a lean development budget.
Each custom chassis design undergoes a minimum of 72 hours of burn-in testing inside our specialized environment chambers. This process monitors system performance across temperature shifts, operational vibrations, and prolonged high-load configurations.
Real-world integration instances showing the versatility and performance of our small desktop platforms.
We build lasting collaborative relationships. Our systems are engineered to evolve alongside our clients' businesses, adjusting configurations as application needs shift over time.
Case Study: Gas Station Automation (Russia)
Alex began with a trial batch of 10 customized fanless industrial computers to run automation and payment terminals at outdoor fuel pumps. Due to the high thermal resilience and reliability of our custom passive cooling structure, these systems operated continuously through sub-zero winter temperatures. This success led to regular annual deployments of 2,000 units across regional network stations.
Case Study: Ergonomic Education Solutions (Spain)
Maria developed specialized education courses for children with physical mobility challenges. She required lightweight, customizable laptops with customized single-handed input configurations, reinforced display frames, and long-lasting battery configurations. Jinghong redesigned the chassis framework and input layout, enabling Maria to roll out accessible education centers throughout the region.
Our specialized design capabilities allow us to adjust motherboards, layout profiles, and port arrays to meet the specific requirements of any sector:
The engineering path for next-generation SFF (Small Form Factor) desktop systems and edge computing units.
Transitioning custom systems to 10-layer HDI PCBs. This layout structure allows for tighter integration of components, supporting dual-channel DDR5 and PCIe Gen 5 storage in compact casings.
Developing vapor chamber heat-spreaders and high-conductive aluminum alloys. These materials improve passive heat dissipation by 35%, allowing fanless mini PCs to handle up to 35W TDP processors without throttling.
Incorporating dedicated Neural Processing Units (NPUs) into customized motherboards. This allows edge systems to run complex computer vision and automation models locally with low power consumption.
Adapting manufacturing processes to utilize recycled aluminum alloys and modular components. This simplifies future hardware upgrades and reduces electronic waste at end-of-life.
How our custom small desktop systems integrate into larger industrial ecosystems.
We assist enterprises in replacing space-consuming tower computers with mini PCs. These compact systems mount directly behind monitors using VESA brackets, reducing workstation space requirements and lowering office power consumption.
Our fanless computers serve as rugged controllers on active factory floors. Built-in COM, GPIO, and dual gigabit ethernet ports allow these systems to bridge local machinery sensors with remote cloud-based SCADA systems.
We provide educational institutions with customized, space-saving computing setups. These reliable systems are configured with custom OS images and bios settings, simplifying management for IT staff in large school networks.
