Industrial control and automation have been historically dependent on hardware devices and proprietary, vertically integrated systems. Shifting the centralization of logic and intelligence from hardware into software that can run on any capable device is a key step in improving productivity and flexibility in manufacturing. This shift also addresse...

This study explores industrial robotics' potential growth opportunities. The global workforce shortage and customers' growing interest in automation are significant drivers for the adoption of robots, which are being deployed across several industries, including retail, manufacturing, healthcare, food and beverage, and agriculture. A few countries ...

Software-defined automation (SDA) represents a paradigm shift in industrial and manufacturing control systems that addresses traditional operational technology (OT) architectures' limitations. As proprietary, hardware-intensive automation systems reach the end of their life cycles, they increasingly hinder innovation, scalability, and adaptability ...

Welding is a versatile and essential fabrication process that uses heat to join metals together, either similar or dissimilar metals. Unlike brazing and soldering that use a lower temperature to metal fusion, welding technologies operate at very high temperatures. Welding is the most-used fabrication technique across all industry verticals. With f...

Increasing focus by end-users on reliability and safety is expected to mobilise the industrial compressor services market. Repairs and maintenance activities have assumed greater significance post the 2008-09 economic recession, which diminished the capital expenditure for new projects. The impact of European Union sanctions (on account of the geo-...

This study explores the potential growth opportunities presented by industrial robotics in the food and beverage (F&B) and pharmaceutical industries. The inclination toward robotic automation is increasing in both sectors as workforce scarcity remains a significant issue. Robots are being deployed across various applications within the F&B and phar...

In 2024, a new multipolar world will emerge, reshaped by digital industries that have become mainstream following the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic. This shift signals an accelerated push toward digitalization, unveiling eight novel growth opportunities in digital industries, each marking a significant step in industry progress and offering vast potential...

In the last couple of decades, the valve manufacturing industry was focused on identifying low-cost manufacturing destinations as ‘Outsourcing’ had huge pricing benefits. Despite the pricing benefits, low quality and late delivery were serious concerns to the manufacturers and end users. Has the situation changed in recent years? Are valve manufact...

This study provides an overview of the merger and acquisition (M&A) trends in the industrial machinery/automation and sensors industry. Some of the key industry trends that drive M&A activity are identified and substantiated with quantitative analysis. The approach to quantitative analysis of M&A activity is two-fold. Firstly, analysis is carried o...
