Market Overview 

Industrial Automation Control market was valued at 150 billion US$ in 2022 and is projected to reach 358.3 billion US$ by 2030, at a CAGR of 11.5% during the forecast period. Industrial automation control refers to the use of control systems, such as programmable logic controllers (PLCs), supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems, and distributed control systems (DCS), to automate industrial processes and machinery. It involves the use of sensors, actuators, and other devices to monitor and control various aspects of industrial processes, such as temperature, pressure, flow, and other variables.  Industrial automation control systems are used in a wide range of industries, including manufacturing, oil and gas, chemical, food and beverage, and many others. They are used to improve efficiency, reduce costs, and increase safety in industrial operations.  The control systems used in industrial automation are designed to be robust and reliable, able to withstand harsh industrial environments. They also have the ability to communicate with other systems, such as enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems, and can be integrated with other technologies such as IoT and AI for improved performance.  Industrial automation control systems can be classified into two types, namely, discrete control systems and process control systems. Discrete control systems are used to control specific, individual machines or processes. Process control systems are used to control continuous processes, such as chemical reactions or fluid flows.  The industrial automation control market is divided into several segments such as Systems & Solutions, Services, and Application. The systems and solutions segment is further divided into hardware, software, and services. The services segment is further divided into professional services and managed services. The Application segment is divided into various industries such as automotive, food and beverage, oil and gas, chemicals and many others. 

Market Dynamics 

The government initiatives to promote industrial automation and shortage of skilled labor in many industries,  such that automation can help businesses to fill this gap, are key driving factors of the market. The necessity to expand industrial activities to uplift annual industrial output for the generation of increasing revenue would further stimulate adoption and integration of industrial automation control solutions in the upcoming period. However, fluctuation in end-use industries and industrial automation systems connected to networks and vulnerable to cyber attacks might hamper the market growth. The requirements of high initial investments for incorporation of industrial automation control machinery might also hinder market growth. The increased safety of machinery and human workforce through industrial automation integration of the product would provide lucrative opportunities for the market in coming years.
