What Are The Current Leading Growth Drivers For Discrete Automation Market?
The increasing demand for efficient manufacturing is expected to propel the growth of the discrete automation market going forward. Efficient manufacturing refers to the ability to produce goods with the lowest possible total cost while minimizing waste of materials, time, and energy and increasing the effectiveness and quality of the work done. Rising labor costs, fluctuating raw material prices, and escalating energy expenses compel manufacturers to seek methods for process optimization and cost reduction, thereby driving the pursuit of efficient manufacturing practices. Discrete automation technologies, including robotics, PLCs (programmable logic controllers), and conveyor systems, streamline production processes by enabling automated assembly lines to operate continuously at consistent speeds, thus enhancing productivity and reducing cycle times. For instance, in September 2023, according to a publication by the International Federation of Robotics (IFR), a Germany-based non-profit organization, industrial robot installations reached a new record level of 553,052 units in 2022, marking a 5% increase from the previous year's high of 526,144 units installed in 2021. Therefore, the increasing demand for efficient manufacturing is driving the growth of the discrete automation market.
