Improves productivity
Manufacturers are constantly looking for solutions that can help them raise productivity with little assets, driven by the constant demand to improve profitability. In this case, industrial automation catalyses increased dependability and efficiency, resulting in a higher return on investment (ROI). By adopting innovative and integrated technologies, industrial automation improves production rate and quality while also lowering production costs. It takes mechanization a step further by substituting computer programming and automation devices for human labour, resulting in a performance that is superior to manual operation.
Initial Cost
The Industrial automation and control system has several drawbacks including the initial cost of design and installation and the complexity of integrated systems and technology which require hiring or training experts to operate and maintain the system which adds up the cost of labour. The primary drawback that majorly everyone has to deal with is the initial cost. Implementation of automation can be economically challenging. Most of the initial money is spent on automation-required facilities such as infrastructure, technology, and installation.
Industrial Changes
The industrial market is anticipated to advance more towards smarter tech such as artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning. A noticeable difference will be observed in the integration of smart manufacturing systems and Internet of Things (IoT) devices. Businesses are demanding more efficient work which encourages them to use predictive maintenance and better ways to collect data. The popularity of automation will rise continuously as plenty of companies are investing in automation for better decision-making and to increase productivity.
Based on the component the market is classified as HMI, industrial robots, control valves, sensors and other components. The control valve type is the most dominating in the year 2024 due to the rapid growth in the technologies and it is expected to continue in the forecast period. Environmental, economic, and competitive issues are becoming more prevalent in modern process facilities. As a result, an increasing number of industrial enterprises are investing in cutting-edge technology and instruments in order to obtain a competitive advantage. Technology advancements have resulted in creative solutions that can help process facilities become more productive by optimizing their operations. Control valves and valve automation solutions suppliers will continue to create products and procedures that solve these new issues as industry requirements evolve and change.
The industrial robotics is gaining immense popularity due to the adoption of industrial internet of things (IIOT) technology which provides profitability and productivity. These smart sensors and actuators at the edge of production to capture data that was previously unavailable to manufacturers are used by robots. This trend is currently under progress, and it will result in new levels of efficiency and production. Apart from capturing and analyzing data in real time, the driving principle behind IIoT is that smart devices are better than people at transmitting crucial information that can be used to make accurate and faster business decisions.
The DCS segment contributed the highest market share of 46% in 2024. The DCS has the most prominent share in the industrial automation and control system market due to its advantages in the automation and control system.
