According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Programmable Logic Controller Market is accounted for $14.6 billion in 2022 and is expected to reach $22.8 billion by 2028 growing at a CAGR of 7.7% during the forecast period. Programmable logic controllers (PLCs) have greatly improved in terms of capability, usability, communications, and programming flexibility. To meet the demand for harsh industrial environments, these controllers are designed to be extremely robust, often capable of withstanding extreme temperatures, humidity, vibration, and electrical noise. Furthermore, several languages are used in PLC programming that are sequential function chart, ladder logic, and functional block diagrams.

According to the International Federation of Robotics (IFR), China's manufacturing robot density is now 9th in the world (246 units), up from 25th (49 units) five years ago. According to IFR, the operational stock of industrial robots is expected to reach 3,788 (in thousand units) by 2021, from 2,731 (in thousand units) in 2019.



Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Ease of use

Manufacturing operations, including assembly lines and robotic equipment, as well as any activity that requires high-reliability control, convenient programming, and process fault identification, are controlled by PLCs. Due to their extensive use and reliability, they offer consistent, precise, and adaptable control while being easy to use. Hence, these elements are fuelling market expansion.

Restraint:

Demand for customization of products

Industries have been shifting away from mass production and towards mass customisation as a result of modern consumers' need for customised items. Innovation has led to a dramatic increase in the complexity, personalization, and sophistication of products. Modern technology is revolutionising the way that parts are made for both industrial and automotive applications. Thus, these factors are restraining the growth of the market.

Opportunity:

High Usage of PLC

The programmable logic controller is useful in a variety of industries, including power, energy, automotive, oil & gas, and pharmaceuticals, due to its ability to work with high-voltage equipment. Furthermore, factors like the desire for compact automation solutions, the uptake of building and home automation systems, an increase in the market for IoT-connected home appliances, and the requirement for compact automation solutions will all contribute to the market's expansion.

Threat:

Risk of Security

The various vulnerabilities that plague programmable logic controllers have a significant impact on overall security. Thus, it is projected that the market will face a considerable challenge from the numerous security issues. A further significant barrier to the market's overall expansion is the higher expense associated with PLC expandability.

Covid-19 Impact

The demand for programmable logic controllers (PLC) from various industries has reduced as a result of the pandemic's effects on several industries, including oil and gas and automotive. The need for micro and nano programmable logic controllers (PLC) from industries including the pharmaceutical industry will, nonetheless, also support market growth throughout this period.

The Small PLC segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

The Small PLC segment is estimated to have a lucrative growth, due to usage of industrial robots. It is predicted that the increased usage of industrial robots for production automation would present profitable business opportunities. These tiny PLC units are frequently utilised in a variety of specialised applications, such as small machines with an emphasis on fundamental serial connections, and they are significantly less expensive than standard-sized PLCs. Hence, these are driving the growth of the segment.

The automotive segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The automotive segment is anticipated to witness the fastest CAGR growth during the forecast period, due to the increasing automation in the manufacturing industries. Automobile manufacturers are focusing on a sharp increase in demand and are struggling to meet the demand as their operations are being hampered by longer turnaround times. The manufacturers are using automation in the production facilities to reduce turnaround times, which is driving the market growth.

Region with highest share:

Asia Pacific is projected to hold the largest market share during the forecast period owing to the rapid growth of the industrial sector and increasing investment in automation solutions across various sectors. Process and discrete manufacturing automation have historically been built on these PLC systems. The market's rise was aided by the increasing adoption of Industry 4.0 across all industrial sectors.

Region with highest CAGR:

North America is projected to have the highest CAGR over the forecast period, owing to the increasing demand for automation across the industries like automotive, food and beverages. The dominance is also maintained by smart manufacturing projects, which also make it easier for factory automation and intelligence to be widely adopted. The government is concentrating on the construction of smart cities, and over the projection period, there will be a considerable demand for industrial digital computers.
