Germany, the global leader in the field of intelligent industry, keenly aware of the development trend of industrial processes, put forward the fourth industrial revolution - "Industry 4.0" high-tech strategic plan to further enhance its own production system in the industrial automation manufacturing industry. The position. Experts say: "Industry 4.0" will make industrial production efficiency by 30%. Traditional industry boundaries will disappear, and will produce a variety of new business and cooperation, the formation of automation, information technology, integration, lean, integrated digital factory.
The rapid development of the economy so that the domestic labor costs continue to rise, the pressure on the survival of enterprises to increase, in order to reduce production costs and improve production efficiency, the development of automation of industrial control has become an irreversible trend. The report shows that in the first half of 2013, China has 797 small industrial automation enterprises, occupying 81.7% of the total number of domestic industrial automation enterprises. Based on the better development prospects of industrial automation control, it is expected that in 2015 the market size of the industrial automatic control system device manufacturing industry will exceed 350 billion yuan.
Although China's domestic industrial automation enterprises still lag behind their foreign counterparts in terms of technology, branding, and product range, the domestic industry possesses certain advantages such as cost, pricing, distribution, segmentation expansion, and personalized service. Currently, the domestic industrial automation and control market is gradually growing. In the first half of last year, the total assets of China's industrial automation sector had reached RMB 212 billion, with an annual growth rate of 14.9%.
Industry insiders say that the industrial automation market is very broad, it may involve any manufacturing industry that uses control systems and automatic processing systems for different production cycles, applied to many different end markets. Today, many manufacturing industries in China that are not the same are using industrial automation in large numbers, but the industrial automation market itself is still in the early stages of development, so there is huge potential and room for growth. From a broader perspective, China's industrial automation market has a bright future, and refined manufacturing with low energy consumption is the future direction of development.
With the introduction of more high-precision sensors and the ability to communicate faster over longer distances, there have been many advances in the industrial control market, such as real-time sensing and response measures on production lines, incorrect placement sensing and corrective response. Today, many operations that were previously not automated due to inaccurate sensing accuracy of sensing components are now automated. Industry researchers analyze, "The transition to an intelligent, connected and responsive world is well underway, and industrial automation is one of the first areas of this diffusion." Ambient light sensors, motion sensors, light sensors, distance sensors, image sensors and other sensors are the primary components. Next is connectivity, both wired and wireless. Finally, there is the control and processing of the data received by the sensors and transmitted through the connectivity solution.
Nowadays, the manufacturing industry is starting to transform to digitalization due to the use of IoT technology and sensors in industrial control. China's industrial automation market is characterized by three main trends: intelligence, improved reliability, and energy conservation for efficient production. According to industry experts, the improved performance of sensors makes the control system's perception of the surrounding environment sharper and more accurate, which ensures the timeliness and reliability of data transmission over long distances and helps the control system send better commands.
The Institute analyzes that industrial upgrading, people's livelihood and energy conservation and environmental protection of the three major factors will give the future of industrial automatic control systems in emerging areas of market development to create more opportunities for development. Therefore, in the current situation of industrial automatic control system traditional demand market slowdown, the Prospect Industry Research Institute that investors may wish to layout in advance of the emerging industries, increase the demand for products in emerging markets R & D investment in the future to obtain.
