Industrial Automation Sensors Market Dynamics

Industrial Automation Sensors Market Driver

Adoption of Wireless Connectivity in Manufacturing Units

  • Industrial applications for sensors primarily rely on wireless communication. The manufacturing facilities’ battery-powered wireless sensors and nodes can readily scale to hundreds of sensing points per site. They do away with the requirement for specialised or qualified individuals to supervise or manage processes. Companies are heavily investing in the newest sensor and networking technology as they search for methods to improve their operations, boost productivity, save costs, and run more profitably. Manufacturers are seeing an increase in demand for wireless connectivity solutions, particularly for applications involving robots and factory automation.

Industrial Automation Sensors Market Restraint

High Installation Costs May Cause Reluctance in the Adoption of Sensor Technology

  • Sensors’ specifications change depending on the use, which raises their cost. OEMs put further pressure on sensor manufacturers’ prices by expecting them to provide the best sensors at cheaper prices. In some instances, the lack of mass production makes it impossible for the makers to lower the price.
