Current Scenario of the Global Industrial and Factory Automation Market

Industrial automation is the use of control systems, like machines or robotics, and information technology for the management of various processes and equipment in manufacturing to replace human beings.

The advent of business partnerships and the need for bulk creation of goods, favorable government initiatives to encourage automation systems, implementation of evolving technologies like IoT and AI in industry applications, insistence on automation technology and optimized resource consumption and financial policies framed by local financial firms to retain production facilities during the COVID-19 emergency are among the factors responsible for the growth.  This is the second step after mechanization in the area of industrialization. Such automation allows most industries to work with versatility and improved efficiency.

MARKET DRIVERS

The upsurge of the notion of a business partnership is propelling the global industrial & factory automation market forward.

The productive flow of information throughout various units in enterprises is critical for efficient manufacturing operations. It allows businesses to grasp the method of transforming resources into products by utilizing IoT and IP systems. Internet-of-things systems can be used to monitor the position of field devices, ensure the correct flow of materials, maintain track of the inventory status, and notify goods as they move through the supply chain. Integrated companies can also quickly obtain the flow of data through the production chain, making it more straightforward for them to react to changes in the business environment. Real-time data assists producers in lowering operational costs, recognizing cyber theft risks, and producing following market demands. The elevated demand for improved productivity and the production of high-quality product lines is fueling the growth of innovative equipment and software systems. This requirement can be met by deploying advanced manufacturing strategies and applications provided by industrial and factory automation.

MARKET RESTRAINTS

The introduction of a new automated production facility necessitates the use of cutting-edge automation innovations and technologies. Data collection with them aids in reducing calculation errors while improving product quality and manufacturing plant efficiency. The establishment of these production facilities necessitates significant capital investments in machinery, operating systems, and instruction. For new companies who are establishing their first facility, investing such a substantial amount is challenging. As a result, before implementing industrial and factory automation systems, these businesses must conduct a thorough analysis of their return on investment.

Furthermore, due to the high costs of new and advanced systems and the lack of interoperability in legacy systems, several companies cannot replace their existing legacy systems. These legacy systems communicate using proprietary protocols, making connecting them to systems based on new technologies complicated. As a result, manufacturers incur high additional costs when upgrading their existing systems. Furthermore, the automation software systems used in industries necessitate ongoing maintenance and upgrades. As a result, small businesses cannot afford such costs. As a result, the charge is a significant impediment to the growth of the industrial & factory automation market. Following the initial capital investments, there is a need to maintain and upgrade industrial and factory automation systems and solutions. Maintaining and upgrading industrial and factory automation systems and solutions necessitates significant capital reinvestment. As a result, the need for substantial initial investments and maintenance reinvestments limits the growth of the industrial & factory automation market.

Impact of COVID-19 on global industrial & factory automation market

COVID-19 harmed the industrial & factory automation market in 2020, resulting in lower consignments of industrial & factory automation components and solutions and profits made from them. As a consequence, the industry's overall growth slowed in the first half of 2020. This momentum is projected to reverse in the second half of the year as demand rises due to more profound concern for intelligent automation, improving energy efficiency. The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on the value chain of the industrial & factory automation market. The United States, China, South Korea, and Japan have been hit hard by the pandemic, accounting for a sizable share of global industrial and factory automation manufacturing. The discrete and process industries are experiencing low demand, which is expected to persist in the short term due to the worldwide slowdown.

SEGMENTAL ANALYSIS

Global Industrial and Factory Automation Market By Solution

The market is segmented into SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition), PLC (Programmable Logic Controller), DCS (Distributed Control System), MES (Manufacturing Execution System), Industrial Safety, and PAM (Plant Asset Management).

In 2019, the Distributed Control System (DCS) captured the largest market share. A distributed control system (DCS) is a digital automated industrial control system with spatially separated control loops across a production plant, device, or regulation zone, instead of being centralized. DCSs are placed so that each element of a production facility is governed by one or more controllers, enabling different parts of the plan to receive instructions.

Global Industrial and Factory Automation Market By Component

The market is categorized into Sensors, Industrial Robots, Machine Vision, Control valves, Industrial PC, Control devices.

Sensors captured the largest market share in 2019. Sensors are growing in popularity in the industrial automation control market due to their widespread use in automotive, medical services, consumer devices, and armed services. In addition, makers are heavily automating these tasks with robotics, thanks to advancements in technology, force/torque sensors, and end-effectors. Polishing is an example of a repetitive and strenuous activity that can be automated for effective results.

Global Industrial and Factory Automation By Industry

The market can be categorized into Process Industry and Discrete Industry. In 2019, the process industry dominated the global market. Additives, food, beverages, petroleum, base metals, paper and paper products, drug companies, and other sectors illustrate process industries. The process industry is the primary end-user of DCS (Distributed Control System) because it typically involves monitoring and managing fluids such as oil, milk, and water. Throughout the manufacturing process, the DCS, in conjunction with valves and other tools, constantly regulates and controls the liquid flow and the blending of these industrial components.
