Industrial automation refers to the technical means and process in the industrial production process that uses automation technology (such as machinery, electronics, computers, communications, sensors, etc.) to realize automatic detection, control, adjustment and management of production links and reduce manual intervention, thereby improving production efficiency, reducing costs, ensuring product quality, and improving labor conditions.
The development of the industrial automation industry has received strong support from the national level.
From “Made in China 2025” to the relevant plans of the “14th Five-Year Plan”, policies cover many aspects such as technology research and development, industrial structure adjustment, energy-saving applications, etc., clarify the development direction of the industry, guide resource investment, promote the integration of industrial automation, information technology, and energy-saving technology, promote the development of the industry in the direction of intelligence and greening, and provide the industry with broad development space and a good policy environment.

my country’s industrial automation market will reach 254.9 billion yuan in 2023, a year-on-year increase of 6.25% from 239.9 billion yuan in 2022, continuing a steady growth trend.
Under the trend of domestic substitution, the penetration rate of local brands in the mid-to-low-end market continues to increase, injecting new momentum into industry growth and demonstrating the strong development resilience of industrial automation as the core support for manufacturing upgrades.
The competitive landscape of the industrial automation industry is diversified.
European and American brands such as Siemens and Rockwell have taken the lead in the high-end market with their profound technological accumulation and brand influence.
Japanese brands such as Panasonic and Yaskawa have obvious advantages in the fields of servo and robots.
Domestic enterprises have developed rapidly in recent years, with the rise of leading enterprises such as Inovance Technology and SUPCON Technology, and they continue to seize market share.
The industry concentration is low and there are many small and medium-sized enterprises.
From a regional perspective, companies are mostly concentrated in developed manufacturing regions such as the Yangtze River Delta, Pearl River Delta, Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, etc., and competition is fierce.
