Global Factory Automation and Industrial Controls Market Size (2023 to 2028)

The global factory automation and industrial controls market is expected to be worth USD 221.5 billion by 2028 from USD 149.4 billion in 2023, growing at a CAGR of 8.2% from 2023 to 2028.

Factory automation and industrial control facilitate cost efficiency and quality of production; and standardize manufacturing, reliability, and adaptability within the process of production. Factory automation and industrial controls offer a perfect mixture of mechanical components and devices and knowledge Technology. Digitization and the Industry 4.0 revolution have significantly stimulated the expansion of automation among various industries by necessitating the utilization of smarter and automatic solutions, like robotics and control systems, to enhance production processes. The increasing adoption of intelligent systems, components, and smart machinery and equipment, for the development of processes through automation and self-optimization has resulted in the development of smart factories for planning, supply chain logistics, and merchandise development. 

Factory Automation and Industrial Controls Market Drivers:

The global industrial control and factory automation market is being propelled forward by the growth of the linked business concept for improved production activities; effective information transfer between different units in industries is critical. With the use of IoT and IP networks, it allows manufacturers to better comprehend the process of converting raw materials into completed commodities. With the help of IoT-enabled systems, field instruments can be tracked, raw material flow can be ensured, inventory status can be tracked, and commodities can be reported as they move through the supply chain. Companies that are connected have simple access to data flowing throughout the supply chain, allowing them to react quickly to changing market conditions. Manufacturers can use real-time data to lower inventory costs, detect cyber-threat issues, and produce in response to market demand.

The demand for advanced equipment and software systems is being driven by an increased need for increased productivity as well as the manufacture of high-quality products. Industrial control and factory automation can help meet this demand by providing contemporary production systems and methods.

Factory Automation and Industrial Controls Market Restraints:

Initial capital inputs and reinvestments for maintenance are significant. When constructing a new automated manufacturing facility, the use of the latest automation technologies such as SCADA, DCS, RTU, PLC, and HMI is essential. SCADA data collection helps to reduce calculation errors while also enhancing product quality and industrial plant performance. To build up these manufacturing units, large financial investments in equipment, software, and training are required. As a result, before installing industrial control and factory automation systems and solutions, these businesses must conduct a thorough analysis of their return on investment, which hinders the global factory automation and industrial controls market growth.

Factory Automation and Industrial Controls Market Opportunities:

Humans can be harmed by a variety of industrial manufacturing processes. Human errors or mechanical faults can result in deadly occurrences throughout the production process. As a result, the industrial sector must implement safety measures in order to avoid workplace accidents. Accidents are less likely when products that automate safety compliance are used. Safety automation devices, for example, alert operators in the event of an emergency and take pre-programmed procedures to reduce the risk to human life. They uncover flaws in various gear and processes and run diagnostics to find cures as rapidly as possible. As a result, these safety instrument systems are designed to react swiftly and reliably (SIS). According to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), the occurrence of significant occupational injuries and illnesses has reduced dramatically from 4.6 per 100 workers in 2019 to 1.6 per 100 workers in 2020, thanks to the deployment of safety components and industrial automation.

Factory Automation and Industrial Controls Market Challenges:

The market for factory automation and industrial control systems is quite competitive, with several prominent manufacturers. The market appears to be divided to a degree. The market's top companies are focusing their efforts on expanding their consumer base to encompass new countries. To enhance their market share and profitability, these companies rely on strategic collaboration ventures. Industry players are also buying start-ups working on factory automation and industrial control systems to increase their product capabilities.
