Taipei, Taiwan, 20th March 2025 – Advantech (TWSE: 2395), a global leader in industrial edge servers and GPU solutions, has officially introduced the new SKYRack L11 Rack Solution, designed to provide high-performance, high-reliability integrated computing platforms for customers in industries such as semiconductors, healthcare, and smart factories. This launch aims to accelerate digital transformation for industrial clients.
Addressing Industry Challenges with Enhanced Computing Efficiency
With the rapid growth in semiconductor production and increasingly sophisticated processes, demand for higher data processing performance has risen significantly. At the same time, limited space presents challenges for higher-density deployments. Advantech’s L11 Rack Solution integrates computing, storage, and GPU capabilities with high performance, high-density design, and high reliability to meet diverse industrial needs, making it an ideal choice for intelligent manufacturing.
Partnership with KEMMEC for Advanced Thermal Solutions
To address the high-power cooling challenges posed by high-performance computing, Advantech has partnered with KEMMEC (TPEX: 6125), a leading thermal solutions provider, to develop thermal solutions. KEMMEC ‘ CDU offers efficient heat dissipation without the need for external chillers, achieving a cooling capacity of 12KW to 80KW per unit. Magic Pao, AVP Advantech Edge Server Group commented: “Compared to traditional cooling technologies, this solution not only delivers superior performance but also effectively reduces energy consumption and noise while ensuring easier maintenance, significantly enhancing operational stability. Our collaboration with KEMMEC makes the L11 rack an ideal solution for rapid deployment and stable operation, helping clients build a more reliable computing environment.”
Shawn Huang, VP of KEMMEC Cooling Solution added, “Advantech’s industrial-grade servers provide high performance and reliability for clients in increasingly precise technological fields. Through this partnership, we are offering better solutions to meet diverse industry needs. KEMMEC has already launched several projects in domestic and international data centers. In the future, our collaboration with Advantech will not only focus on product development but also leverage both parties’ strengths to create a new AIDC (Automatic Identification and Data Capture) solution for end-user data center customers. We have already completed the deployment of 480KW, 600KW, and 1400KW water-cooled products in the overseas AIDC market and integrated Red Fish architecture into the CDU. In order to provide more R&D resources for client collaboration, KEMMEC has recruited three PhD experts in the fields of servers and thermal solutions to enhance our R&D capabilities, offering water-cooled data center solutions to Advantech and other server clients.”
Industrial-Grade Design for Long-Term Operation
In semiconductor manufacturing, yield stability and rapid adoption of new process technologies are critical. The Advantech L11 rack Solution is designed to meet Copy Exactly standards, offering at least a 2-year product warranty and up to 5 years of long-term supply assurance. Strict version control is applied to key components of the host system, ensuring stable hardware operation.
Advantech’s industrial-grade design supports the rigorous demands of 24/7 high-load operation in semiconductor plants, meeting stringent industry standards for high utilization and low failure rates. Additionally, the SKYRack rack complies with SEMI S2, S8, and S15 semiconductor specifications, ensuring international safety and performance standards.
Global Service of the L11 Cabinet Solution
Advantech is expanding its system integration services globally. The company has already successfully launched assembly services for the L10 system in the U.S., China, Taiwan, and the Netherlands. Future plans include assembly, integration, testing, and pre-configuration services for the L11 cabinet.
Leveraging Advantech’s hardware expertise in edge computing and AI software integration, the SKYRack offers diverse smart application solutions. By collaborating deeply with clients and global ecosystem partners, Advantech is committed to delivering innovative solutions that drive business upgrades and transformation.
Continuous Innovation to Lead Industry Advancements
Looking ahead, Advantech will continue investing in high-performance computing and cooling technologies, focusing on customer-centric optimization of product design and service capabilities. The rack Solution showcases Advantech’s technical integration capabilities in industrial computing and further solidifies its position as a global market leader.
