Custom Ace Mini PC Products & Factories

Deep-dive technical architectural configurations, global procurement pipelines, and industrial-grade customized small form factor (SFF) computer platforms.

Global Trends in the Custom Mini PC Industry

Understanding the shift from massive workstations to compact, high-efficiency micro-computing nodes.

Edge AI Integration

Modern mini computers are no longer simple office terminals. With the emergence of integrated NPUs (Neural Processing Units) in Intel and AMD processors, local AI computation is driving real-time inferencing on mini hosts in industrial setups.

Thermal Architecture Optimization

Thermal management is the bottleneck of SFF design. High-performance custom units leverage passive fanless configurations or liquid-metal dynamic cooling loops, assuring sustained clock speeds over long-term operation.

Zero-Down-Time Reliability

Industrial sectors demand continuous 24/7 runtimes. System integrators require hardware designed with custom solid-state caps, wide-voltage inputs, and strict ESD protection profiles.

Brand Story: Jinghong

Empowering Visionaries and Emerging Brands

In Shenzhen, the core engine of global electronics manufacturing, tech innovation marches at an intense pace. While standard market products target bulk deployments, unique ideas and tailored specifications from growing companies are often neglected due to massive factory minimum order requirements.

Jinghong was founded in 2014 to eliminate this barrier. For 12 years, we have been deeply involved in the field of custom computational hardware. From compact desktop micro-hosts to complex fanless industrial controllers, we build technology designed to fit your creative requirements.

"No matter how small the demand is, it deserves to be taken seriously."

Our engineering lines have custom-configured palm-sized medical computer terminals for clinics in Germany, built military-grade reinforced notebooks for rugged desert terrain in the Middle East, and developed cost-efficient educational setups for classrooms in Africa. Behind our annual output of 100,000+ units, we support over 100,000 unique design challenges.

Technical Roadmap & Future Outlook

Engineering the Future of Small Form Factor Computing

At Jinghong, our design roadmap is built around efficiency and high computing power. Over the next three years, we are integrating next-generation architecture upgrades to keep our OEM/ODM partners competitive:

  • Thermal Design Advances: Introducing graphite sheet dissipation and optimized vapor chambers, allowing 35W+ TDP operation in sub-0.5-liter enclosures without thermal throttling.
  • Expanded High-Speed I/O: Adopting USB4 and dual 2.5G/10G RJ45 LAN setups to match modern industrial data collection and network standards.
  • Firmware-Level Security: Providing custom secure boot setups, customized PXE settings, and BIOS customization to align with specific hardware protection requirements.
  • Environmental & Green Standards: Shifting to post-consumer recycled alloys and low-halogen PCBs to meet strict European carbon compliance and circular economy regulations.

Answers to Common OEM/ODM Customization Questions

Frequently asked questions regarding order management, hardware modification, and shipping compliance.

What options do you offer for custom BIOS modification?

We provide deep BIOS modifications, including custom splash screen logos, pre-configured power states (such as Auto-Power-On when electricity is connected), PXE network boot configurations, and custom system-level identifiers (UUID/DMI parameters) to ensure smooth integration with client software suites.

How does your factory ensure the heat management of fanless mini PCs under stress?

Our WG1 and related fanless models use custom-milled aluminum alloy enclosures that serve as direct heatsinks. Thermal interface materials (TIM) connect high-heat processors directly to the outer casing, allowing passive convection cooling that supports stable 24/7 runtimes without dust build-up or fan failures.

Can you accommodate hardware changes (like adding interfaces) for low MOQ runs?

Yes. While structural chassis modifications require setting up custom injection tooling, we can modify I/O plates, adjust component layouts, and customize internal connection headers for low-volume orders. This flexibility helps partners test new designs without substantial upfront tooling costs.

What environmental and region-specific certifications do your systems carry?

Our manufacturing processes follow ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 guidelines. Our core computer configurations can be certified with CE, FCC, RoHS, and CCC compliance marks. We work closely with testing agencies to help partners secure region-specific certifications during development.
