Market Trends of France Factory Automation and Industrial Controls Industry
This section covers the major market trends shaping the France Factory Automation & Industrial Controls Market according to our research experts:
Programable Logic Controller Expected to Witness Signifcant Growth in the Adoption
- Programable Logic Controller is an industrial digital computer which is designed to operate in tough industrial environment for industrial automation. These computers are mainly used to control manufacturing process in industry, robotic devices, machines, assembly lines can be easily and autonomously controlled with PLC.
- PLCs are pre-programmed with required parameters; they process and analyse the received data and trigger outputs as per need. PLC easily records and monitors runtime data like machine productivity, temperature, automatic start and stop processes, generation of alarms when a machine fails and many more.
- It also provides a function that can check the state of facilities and programs so that if there are problems or errors, it is possible to make repairs quickly compared to other control units. Input and output indicators are easily identifiable in a system.
- The automobile industry in France in growing and with it the need of autonomous manufacturing assembly controlled by robots is also increasing. PLC plays an important role in controlling manufacturing processes due to their rugged, flexible and easily programmable features.
- The advanced features of PLC can communicate data through web browser and connect data with clouds, this enables easy adoption of Industrial Internet of Things and Industry 4.0 in a factory.
