Two major development trends in the industrial control market under the background of intelligent manufacturing
Industrial automation refers to the application of all available advanced technologies and methods to industrial production to achieve self-control and regulation of the manufacturing process. The development of industrial automation is to improve production efficiency on the one hand, and to complete the production of fine and harsh environments that cannot be achieved by humans on the other hand.
Two major development trends in the industrial control market under the background of intelligent manufacturing
The importance of Industry 4.0:
1. Manufacturing is a key industry in the national economy. Governments of all countries have deeply felt the importance of manufacturing in the national economy. China, as a major manufacturing country in the world, attaches even greater importance to it.
2. The combination of "Internet" and industry is expected to become a means of industrial innovation. "Internet" is the catalyst of the most obvious technology currently seen. In the industrial revolution, the innovation process of the industrial revolution has changed from quantitative change to qualitative change. With the help of "Internet", the popularization of industry will be conducive to the introduction of some emerging applications, such as big data, cloud computing, VR, etc.
The economic benefits of industrial Internet are unlimited
With the popularization of the Internet, various emerging applications such as cloud computing will be launched on a large scale in the manufacturing field. Using the means of the Internet, the industrial Internet will penetrate into other mature fields of commercial and civilian use. To realize industrial interconnection, not only the basic information needs to be further improved, but also various automation infrastructure investments are needed. At present, the global industrial automation market size is about 400 billion euros. GE predicts that the market size of industrial interconnection will reach 32 trillion.
Industrial automation is the basis for realizing industrial interconnection
Industrial automation refers to the application of all available advanced technologies and methods to industrial production to achieve self-control and adjustment of the production and manufacturing process. The development of industrial automation is to improve production efficiency on the one hand, and to complete the production of fine and harsh environments that cannot be achieved by humans on the other hand.
The traditional industrial control system is divided into four levels: the detection execution layer and the control execution layer form a closed loop through sensing-control-execution; the advanced application layer provides optimization for the control layer; the enterprise management layer is a management information system such as ERP; and industrial communication runs through it. At present, under the trend of "Internet", a series of emerging applications related to industry have been spawned, which can be called the collaborative layer.
The characteristic of the Internet as the largest technical catalyst determines that the implementation process of Industry 4.0 will not replace the previous automation system, but load it onto the current application platform in an extended application mode to achieve the platform extension of "Internet Industry".
Under the current background of developing intelligent manufacturing, the industrial control market is showing the following development trends:
1. Traditional automation products strengthen digital or networking functions. Industrial interconnection enables information to be coordinated, and digital control systems are no longer a closed network. The use of standardized industrial protocols and data platforms makes the interaction between control systems and the outside world more convenient.
2. Suppliers rely on their own advantages to build integrated management and control and big data platforms. At this stage, domestic and foreign manufacturers are on the same starting line, aiming to seize a place.
