Development of New Generation of Industrial Robotics & Automation Solutions to Complement the Disruptive Rise of Smart Factory Concept Heightens the Dependence on Robust Semiconductors to Support the Evolving Intelligence Index
The
global market for Industrial Semiconductors is projected to reach US$60 billion
by 2022, driven by the growing trend towards digital manufacturing, robust
investments in industrial automation technologies and the growing role played
by electronics in developing intelligent automation solutions. Semiconductors,
the indispensable components of electronics of any type and any kind, represent
an indicator of real-term progress in technological developments. Role of
semiconductors in today’s technology driven world is becoming highly evident,
given their extensive use in wide range of applications from PCs, TVs, and
electronic gadgets such as smartphones to industrial equipment, automated
machinery and defense technologies. Market for industrial semiconductors gained
immensely from upward momentum in core end-use markets including Building
& Home Automation,
Industrial Automation, Medical Devices, and Aerospace, where deployment of electronics-based
modern systems grew massively over the past few years. Further, the market also benefited from rising
demand for high-quality electronic systems for use in Power Tools, Power &
Energy, Video Surveillance, and Automotive/Transportation sectors. Ongoing
shift towards miniaturization, digitalization and high-speed processing and
computing is stepping up the popularity of semiconductors across all industrial
sectors.
Future prospects for industrial semiconductors remain
highly favorable, amid growing importance of process control equipment,
industrial robots, machine vision technologies, and sensor-driven industrial equipment.
New and next generation ‘tech’ trends such as Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communication,
Industrial
Internet of Things (IIoT), the
‘Smart Factory’, and Industry 4.0 are poised to create highly conducive
environment. Inclination towards these latest
‘tech’ trends typically augments the demand for industrial electronics and
equipment, while creating parallel opportunities for semiconductors. Intensified
demand for 3D printing technologies, LED solutions, renewable energy equipment,
climate control systems, digital IP cameras, and wireless devices, is likely to
add to market expansion in the coming years.
Although the prospects remain highly favorable for
industrial semiconductors, certain issues and challenges continue to hamper the
industry revenues. The ongoing trade war, which saw major economies
implementing certain trade actions that substantially affect the electronics
components sector as a whole, prevalence of unorganized players, counterfeit
products and declining margins are some of the key issues that need to be addressed.
