Industrial Control and Factory Automation Market: Challenges

Factors such as lack of awareness, limited fund generation for re-investment owing to compact working capital cycle, narrow geographical diversity and absence of standardization are restraints for the market. Major number of industrial units function on a compact budget, in particular for small and medium enterprises (SME). This creates limited opportunities for re-investment as profits margins are low. This acts as one of the key restrains for market as not every production facilities can afford to invest in the automation and industrial control systems.

Another restrain for players in the market is less availability of trained professionals who can help the implementation of automation and control processes. Companies in the market are delivering training programs and certifications to the interested individuals so as to overcome this challenge. Although, emerging countries in the area of production, reduction in prices, adoption of latest technology and developing scope of used robots offer immense opportunity for industrial control and factory automation market.
