Analysis of Development Direction of China's Automation Industry in 2012

Market research survey shows: In 2011, China's automation market grew by 13.8% year-on-year. Among them, the demand for the OEM industry shrank in the second half of the year, the wind power industry contracted seriously, and the overall demand for automation greatly affected. Under such a market background, whether or not the overall automation market is optimistic in 2012 has become a hot topic of concern for Chinese automation vendors. In 2012, the increase in China's automation market was around 8%.

In March 2012, the first exhibition of automation industry opened in the year - Guangzhou International Industrial Automation Technology and Equipment Exhibition (SIAF Exhibition) was held in Yangcheng. This exhibition brought together more than 400 automation exhibitors from 15 countries and regions, including Siemens, Phoenix, Rittal, Leuze, Pepperl+Fuchs, Bonner, Weidmüller, Lenze, and Bonner. , covering a comprehensive solution for industrial automation, production and process automation, electrical systems, robotics, industrial IT and manufacturing informatization.

Most companies believe that the automation market will slow down in 2012. From the display of exhibitors' booths, more than half of the automation vendors focused on "industry solutions", and the appearance of new products is also aimed at perfecting solutions. This move will mean that automation companies have moved from a single product supplier to an automated service provider role.

The solution used to be the most classic service model in the field of FA and process control, or can be directly called the sales model. Its characteristics are based on project requirements, using standardized product units, and customized software based on understanding the production process or process. The system is composed of customization, rather than standardization, to complete the project requirements and to efficiently complete the customized market requirements.

US Bonner is a professional sensor and inspection expert. Since the company entered China in 1994, it has provided automation products for China's industrial sectors including industrial controllers, human-machine interfaces, photoelectric sensors, industrial wireless networks, machine vision, and industrial security products. , industrial intelligent indicators, rotary encoders and laser readers and other products. Since 2008, the company is committed to further providing tailored, comprehensive and in-depth professional solutions for Chinese customers. During this exhibition, Bonner introduced BMD-A series and BMD-AL series inverters in the perfect factory automation solution, which can connect Profibus, DeviceNet, TCP/IP and other communication interface. Products are widely used in OEM fields, such as textile, weaving, dyeing and finishing machinery, metal processing machinery, welding and cutting machines, simple machine tools, food packaging machinery, woodworking machinery, fan pumps, and cable machinery. At the show, Bonner demonstrated a miniature model of the automated operation of a simulated factory, which signifies that Bonner has become a veritable expert in automation technology and an overall solution provider.

Phoenix Contact made its debut at the show with its newly acquired automation software KW-Software. At the same time, for the needs of the Chinese market and Chinese customers, a high-performance and redundant programmable controller - RFC460RPN3TX was introduced to help the industry to provide the first solution. The product integrates WEB functionality and programming tools use PCWorx. The customer can connect redundantly with any SCADA system through OPC. When the system switches, the standby PLC takes over the system and the OPC server automatically detects and immediately obtains data from it. Every year, Phoenix will have thousands of new products. From the exhibition point of view, the products displayed by Phoenix are all reflected in its transition from a connection technology expert to a real automation expert.

Since the early 1970s, when automation has just begun to be accepted, the integration of control systems, instruments, and enterprise systems has gradually become an inevitable choice. The trend and demand for control system integration continued to grow in the 1980s, with explosive growth in the 1990s. Today, with the expansion of the European and American market for automated services, revolutionary changes have also been brought about in the entire Chinese manufacturing industry. Siemens has pioneered the "fully integrated concept" in the automation field. Siemens Totally Integrated Automation (TIA) products can help customers in all industries to efficiently use automation systems throughout their entire plant life cycle. Behind the TIA Portal project architecture is Siemens' comprehensive product line that is perfectly coordinated, technologically advanced, and innovative.

During the current SIAF show, Siemens released the Simatic ET 200SP for distributed I/O in China for the first time. At the same time, aiming at the needs of Chinese customers, the cost-effective industrial control computer specially designed and produced for the Chinese market: Simatic should control the series. These innovative products are all suitable for building an interconnected automation network, easy to integrate and transfer information to a higher level system. At this point, Siemens is facing the field of industrial automation, and its automation solutions can more easily meet the needs of more Chinese customers.

In addition, professional automation product suppliers have also shown signs of "automation solutions." As a professional cabinet manufacturer, Rittal has thousands of invention patents for its cabinet products, which can provide customers with energy-saving and environmentally-friendly "Rittal-The System" system solutions. Cabinet cooling solutions and temperature-regulated cabinet cooling solutions, IT infrastructure solutions for data centers, and Ri4Power low-voltage power distribution systems tailored for the industry are popular novel solutions.

Focus on local manufacturers, automation solutions manufacturers are also in the minority. Hexin is a PLC brand in Shenzhen, and the company is committed to the world's leading supplier of industrial automation solutions. At the show, its Copanel human-machine interface, CO-TRUST PLC, HANYING servo system, and motion controllers and other automation products were displayed to provide users with products and solutions that "make control easier".

Shanghai Buco's background board at the booth directly slogans with the eye-catching “Automation Solutions for Chinese Customers for Global Customers” to show people the mid-end human-machine interface MT4000 series and bus-type high-end MT5000 series for mainstream applications. The full range of products such as ED Intelligent, CD Universal Servo Series, PLC, etc., demonstrated their ability to solve the solution through the Clipping Demonstration System and Fieldbus Solutions, and also introduced its inverter products at the site.

Whether it is a foreign automation brand or a domestic manufacturer, enterprises have now realized that the automation solution will bring convenience to users. It is also a bigger and stronger market opportunity for enterprises. After all, it is a complete and powerful automation solution. Series of automated product combinations. For a long time to come, "smart, energy saving, and security" are the main melody of the development of China's process industry. The transformation of manufacturing industry is consistent with the development of the process industry. Therefore, the automation solution will become a booster for the transformation and upgrading of China's manufacturing industry.
