With the continuous development and advancement of digitalization and Internet of Things technologies, industrial automation will be further advanced. The continuous emergence and development of new technologies such as robots and artificial intelligence will also greatly promote the development of industrial automation.
Industrial automation industry status and development trend analysis
Industrial automation is the various parameters in industrial production for the purpose of control, to achieve a variety of process control, in the entire industrial production, to minimize the operation of manpower, and to make full use of energy and various information other than animals to carry out production work, that is, industrial automated production, and the process of industrial automatic production is called industrial automation.
Industrial automation refers to the application of automation technology in the machinery industry manufacturing link, to achieve automatic processing and continuous production, improve the efficiency and quality of mechanical production, and release productivity means of operation. The development of industrial automation relies on the deep integration of information technology, computer technology and communication technology, and automation technology has reversed the traditional operation mode to a large extent and accelerated the transformation of traditional industrial technology. Industrial automation technology is now widely used in the production, control and management of industrial enterprises, which effectively improves the daily operation efficiency of industrial enterprises and the scientific nature of industrial production.
Industrial automation is the trend of widely using automatic control and automatic adjustment devices in industrial production to replace manually operated machines and machine systems for processing and production. Under the conditions of industrial production automation, people only indirectly take care of and supervise the production of machines.
Industrial automation not only appears in the manufacturing links of energy, steel, chemical, automotive, electronic information, medicine and other industries, but also in the mature application of automation equipment and technology in non-manufacturing links such as logistics, warehousing, commercial retail and even home services.
China's industrial automation industry has been attached great importance to the national government and the key support of the national industrial policy. In recent years, the state has introduced a number of policies to encourage the development and innovation of the industrial automation control industry.
With the heating up of robots and artificial intelligence, economic globalization has intensified market competition, and the intelligent, flexible and unmanned manufacturing industry has become a development trend, and the industrial automation industry has obtained a broad space for development.
With the continuous progress and application of technology, as well as the need to achieve intelligent manufacturing, industrial automation will become an important support for the rapid development of the future industry.
In recent years, with the deepening of national trade frictions, there has been an urgent demand for the "autonomy, safety and controllability" of core components in relevant fields in China, and improving the localization rate has become the consensus of enterprises in all links of China's industrial chain, and also provides a good development opportunity for industrial automation equipment to achieve import substitution.
With different demands for product output and quality, industrial automation has so far gone through three periods of development. The first stage: the popularization of automation equipment for single variety production on automatic production lines; the second stage: computer-controlled processing equipment for small and medium-sized batch flexible production; the third stage: computer-integrated manufacturing system suitable for complex production scheduling. Now we are in the fourth stage, which is the stage of high-speed penetration and popularization of intelligent manufacturing systems.
Overall, industrial automation follows the development path from automation to digitalization, informatization, and then iteration to the current intelligence. That is, from the early simple replacement of labor force to achieve production and processing to the overall planning and management system progress of the whole process of production and processing.
Intelligence is one of the development directions of industrial automation. With the help of artificial intelligence, Internet of Things, cloud computing and other technologies, the establishment of intelligent factory control system, so that the production line can autonomously perceive, judge and control, improve the degree of intelligence, reduce labor management costs, improve production efficiency and quality.
Intelligent, flexible, networked and green is the main development trend of industrial automation, these trends will further promote the intelligent, efficient and sustainable development of the production process.
