The 118-page exclusive brings optimistic forecasts, suggesting that the industrial automation market could be worth around $54 billion by 2031, with an increasing average annual growth rate of 7.04 per cent.
Analysts predict that the main application areas for this technology will include machinery manufacturing, oil and gas, aerospace and defence, electronics, automotive and pharmaceuticals. Within the types of industrial automation systems, interest is anticipated in SCADA, PAC, PLC, DCS or HMI, among others.
It's good, but...
However, the challenges posed to the industry by changing external factors cannot be ignored. Conflicts around the world, shaky supply chains, economic problems or even inflation are just some of the potential obstacles that could affect the growth rate of this sector.
Despite these uncertainties, there is a strong belief that technological developments and the drive for efficiency will drive demand for automation solutions in the industry. According to experts, in the coming years, we can expect to see a greater focus on the integration of different technologies and a growing role for artificial intelligence in manufacturing processes.
The power of the future
- The industrial automation market will continue its strong growth in the coming decade, driven primarily by the need to optimise production processes and the growing awareness of the benefits of automation, said John Smith, an expert analysing the market.
- We also expect to see a greater interest in new technologies, such as artificial intelligence and robotics, which will be key to the industry's continued growth, he added.
Along with these changes, there will undoubtedly also be new challenges, both technological and social. However, the prospect of dynamic growth in the industrial automation market until 2031 seems promising, offering both manufacturers and consumers a range of opportunities and potential benefits.
