Global Machine Automation Controller Market Size, Trends & Analysis - Forecasts to 2026 By Controller Type (Distributed Control System (DCS), Programmable Logic Controller (PLC), and Industrial PC (IPC)), By Form Factor (IP65, IP20, and Others [IP40, IP67, and IP69K]), By Industry (Oil & Gas, Energy & Power, Food & Beverages, Chemicals, Pharmaceuticals, Metals & Mining, Pulp & Paper, Automotive, Aerospace & Defense, Semiconductor & Electronics, Medical Devices, and Others), By Region (North America, Asia Pacific, CSA, Europe, and the Middle East and Africa), Competitive Landscape Company Market Share Analysis, and Competitor Analysis
The global machine automation controller market is projected to grow from USD 39.3 billion in 2021 to USD 45.8 billion by 2026 at a CAGR value of 4.9% from 2021 to 2026.
Machine automation controller systems are designed and manufactured to provide automation control over motion with features such as networking and sequencing. These controllers are capable of providing synchronized multiple systems to give motion, vision, and safety control as well as data collection and sharing functionalities.
The growing application of automation systems in production processes of various industries and rapid adoption of these systems in routine production process has been one of the prime driving influencers of the growth of the market.
Industries are turning to automation systems to reduce operational costs by streamlining their production processes and working. Increasing productivity through automated systems and robots are enticing companies to adopt such automation systems.
Technological advancements and the development of new products that are capable of integrating IoT, cloud, and other technologies are expected to have a positive influence on the growth of this market from 2021 to 2026.
Industries are increasingly turning to Distributed Control Systems (DCS) to reduce installation costs and to increase reliability with adequate remote monitoring capabilities. The growing adoption of DCS is one of the major drivers of the market.
Automation controllers allow manufacturers to manufacture at a steady and stable rate without compromising on the quality of the products with little human interaction. Many industries like the food and beverages, automotive, and semiconductor industries are increasing their adoption of IoT and automation which has increased the demand for machine automation controller systems in these industries.
The global COVID-19 pandemic has had a major impact on the production capabilities of industries across the globe owing to government-mandated lockdowns and supply chain disruptions. Lower production has reduced investment in increasing production capabilities and adopting new technologies like automation and distributed control systems.
Remote monitoring capabilities have become more pronounced in recent years as working from home and remote monitoring technologies became the norm during the pandemic. The adoption of remote monitoring capabilities will increase the demand for automation controllers during the forecast period.
However, the high cost of implementation of these technologies and the technical knowledge required to use them effectively will hamper the growth of the market.
Based on the type of machine automation controllers, the market is segmented into distributed control system (DCS), programmable logic controller (PLC), and industrial PC (IPC) segments. The distributed control system (DCS) segment held the lion’s share of the market. The continued adoption of distributed control systems is expected to further enhance the market. Distributed control systems offer localized control functions in manufacturing plants that improve reliability, cost, and remote monitoring functionalities. The segment is also envisaged to register better growth rates than other popular machine automation control systems such as programmable logic controllers.
Based on the various forms of controllers, the market is segmented into IP65, IP20, and others. The IP65 segment is expected to hold the most dominant share of the revenues being generated by the companies in this market. IP65 controllers are largely used in industrial applications owing to the rugged nature of these controllers to withstand dust, water, and other contaminants in moderation. The growing adoption of distributed control systems and industrial PCs are also expected to positively impact the demand for IP65 controller systems. The use of automation systems in hospitality industries, BFSI, and other industries are expected to result in the IP20 segment registering greater growth rates during the forecast period.
Based on the various industries adopting these controllers, the market is segmented into oil & gas, energy & power, food & beverages, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, metals & mining, pulp & paper, automotive, aerospace & defense, semiconductor & electronics, medical devices, and others. The automotive industry is expected to generate the highest market revenue owing to the growing demand for automation in automobile manufacturing. Growing demand for energy from the growing population numbers and increasing urbanization is expected to culminate in the energy & power segment to show better growth rates than the other industries.
Based on region, the market is segmented into various regions such as North America, Europe, Central and South America, Middle East and North Africa, and the Asia Pacific. The Asia Pacific region is expected to hold the largest share of the revenues being generated in the market. The growing automotive manufacturing industry in the region has been one of the major contributors to the large revenue being generated in the market within the region. The growing adoption of automation in the food & beverages industries, energy & power industries, semiconductor, and electronics industry, combined with the growing demand for food and beverage products and consumer electronic products are expected to result in the APAC region growing much more rapidly than the other regions during the forecast period. South Asian countries will be the fastest growing regional segment as the growing manufacturing industry in the region is expected to enhance the demand for machine automation controllers in the region.
Emerson, Schneider Electric, Rockwell Automation, Beckhoff Automation, Kollmorgen, Siemens, Mitsubishi Electric, Omron, ABB, Yokogawa, Delta Electronics, Honeywell, Kontron, Advantech, and Robert Bosch, among others are the key players in the machine automation controller market.
