In demanding industrial and embedded computing applications, standard consumer-grade computing boards are insufficient. The nature of factory automation, edge computing, and AI applications requires a different class of hardware—one built for reliability, performance, and a long operational lifespan. Westward Sales specializes in providing these mission-critical computing components. Our comprehensive line of industrial ATX motherboards from industry leader Axiomtek can serve as the rugged computing core of your system.
An industrial ATX motherboard is a sophisticated piece of engineering, built to withstand the punishing environments that would quickly impair a standard desktop motherboard. Unlike their consumer counterparts, industrial ATX boards are designed for continuous 24/7 operation and are built with high-quality, long-life components.
This commitment to durability directly translates into enhanced reliability and a lower total cost of ownership (TCO) over the product's lifespan.
Our selection of industrial ATX motherboards encompasses a diverse range of performance tiers, catering to various applications. They provide the flexibility and expandability needed for complex systems, from server-grade solutions to high-density computing platforms. ATX boards are a perfect fit for a diverse set of applications, including industrial automation, AI inferencing, and high-performance edge computing.
The heart of our industrial ATX motherboards lies in their powerful and versatile processors. They host a broad spectrum of Intel processors, including the energy-efficient Intel Celeron and Pentium for basic computing and Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) applications. The powerful Intel Core i-series is available for intensive data processing and machine learning tasks. For applications requiring maximum throughput and computational power, ATX boards support server-grade Intel Xeon processors, making them ideal for high-performance computing (HPC) and complex AI workloads at the edge.
Industrial ATX motherboards offer extensive expandability. They include a combination of PCIe (x16, x4) and legacy PCI slots for GPU and I/O expansion cards. For connectivity, they feature a rich set of I/O ports, including multiple Gigabit LAN, various USB types, and numerous RS-232/422/485 serial ports for industrial equipment. For example, the Axiomtek IMB541 ATX motherboard is equipped with a PCIe Gen4 x16 slot to support high-performance graphics processing.
Industrial ATX motherboards support a wide range of Intel chipsets, including the H110, Q170, Q370, C246, H310, R680E, Q670E, C621A, and C741, ensuring seamless compatibility and high performance across various system architectures. These chipsets provide a solid foundation for industrial-grade systems, offering enhanced security and management features.
In addition to their rugged design, ATX motherboards are engineered to provide the high-speed connectivity required for modern industrial applications. They are built for fast data transfer and communication, supporting seamless integration of factory devices and networks. We understand that in industrial settings, every minute of uptime is critical, and these ATX motherboards deliver precisely that. Choosing an ATX industrial motherboard, you are investing in an architecture that will withstand the test of time, reduce maintenance costs, and accelerate the development cycle. One popular industrial ATX motherboard is the IMB530. It delivers high performance with multiple connectivity options and is ideal for applications requiring high data transfer. Another option is the IMB541 ATX board, which features a PCIe Gen4 x16 slot to accommodate high-end graphics cards.
