Some of the prime factors propelling the factory automation market growth are technological advancements, increasing demand for efficiency and productivity, cost reduction initiatives, and the growing adoption of Industry 4.0 principles.
Factory automation refers to the industry segment focused on the integration of advanced technologies, such as industrial robotics, control systems, and software, to streamline and optimize industrial processes within manufacturing facilities. This encompasses the automation of tasks that were traditionally performed by human operators, aiming to enhance efficiency, productivity, and precision while reducing manual intervention. Factory automation solutions encompass a wide range of applications, from assembly and material handling to quality control and data analysis; ultimately enabling industries to achieve higher production rates, improved product quality, and cost savings.
The market is witnessing multiple collaborations and technological advancements, for instance in July 2023 Audi introduced the server-based factory automation system EC4P, enhancing worker support and data processing for vehicle production. EC4P eliminates industrial PCs, reducing malware risks and enabling flexible software integration. The technology optimizes resource use, speeds application deployment, and aims to expand its implementation to larger production sites by the end of 2023.
