„What the machine-builders want to change in the automation

Bochum, Germany, March 29th, 2011 OPENPR - The new Quest study identifies the changes the machine-builders are considering this year in the control technology and the drive technology. It makes the technological change transparent like a voter migration analysis. It identifies the increasing and the decreasing technologies and the connection between both.

In addition the study covers the current implementations of robotics, energy efficient drives, I/O modules, IO-Link and RFID in this year.

The change readiness of the machine-builders achieves with 82% its maximum value in the monitoring of the technology change recorded by Quest TechnoMarketing for nine years.

For 55% of the machine-builders is the focus on the implementation of energy efficient drives in this year. Changes in the drive technology are considering 31% and in the control technology 24% of the machine-builders.

The portions do not add to 100% as several ranges of the automation technology are concerned at the same time.

The new Quest study draws a dynamic and detailed picture of the technology change in the German machinery industry in this year.

The Quest study refers in particular to the manufacturers of automation technology. It supports the product management, the development department, the sales management and the marketing to promote those products and solutions to which the machine-builders will tend this year.

This survey was accomplished in January/February and covered scarcely 250 representative machine-builders with 100 and more employees. Please find highlights, table of contents and budget of the study on the website of Quest TechnoMarketing on http://www.qtm.de/en/headlines.html.

Rising world market shares of the 10 largest automakers
From 2011 to 2012 the worldwide motor vehicle production rose by 5.2%. That was connected with a noticeable change of the world market shares among the 10 largest automakers. Three changes are crucial. Quest TechnoMarketing has investigated the internationalization of the worldwide automobile production since 2000 and published some results in the Quest Trend Magazine. Now this long-term trend analysis has been amended by the actual changes from 2011 to 2012

Compared with large industries such as chemistry or motor vehicle industry the machinery industry is rightly considered as medium-sized. However, it is divided into three groups that shift the medium-size character in the background. Quest TechnoMarketing investigated the industry structure of the German machinery industry and published the result in the Quest Trend Magazine. In particular for the manufacturers of automation technology it may be useful to adjust the products for

The Quest Trend Magazine has analyzed the course of the worldwide industrial production in the last 30 years. Three structural changes became visible. They are forming the economic situation also these days. The industrial production of the USA, Japan, Germany and the European Union showed an altogether continuous growth in the 20 years from 1980 to 2000. Economic crises with a decline in industrial production occurred in an interval of

The still dominating role of the European Union countries for the machine export has dramatically been relativized since 2008. And even the export shares into the BRIC countries show up noticeable shifts. The turnover of the German machinery industry achieved its crisis low with 67.5 index points (value index of the German Federal Statistical Office) at the beginning of 2010. Then started a rapid upward movement slightly exceeding with 137.6 at

Latest Feedback of the German Machinery Industry on Industry 4.0 - New Report in …
Along the market survey from Quest TechnoMarketing about the engineering of the machine automation until 2017 the machine-builders also assessed “what Industry 4.0 is supposed to mean for the engineering of the machine until 2017”. 80% of the investigated machine-builders in the ten sectors of the German machinery industry provided their feedback to this question. The following numbers refer to these machine-builders. The open question without further specifications invited to a
Electric linear actuators have been growing for 10 years
Bochum, July 14, 2010. During the last 10 years from 2001 to 2010 the use of electric linear actuators in the German machinery industry has increased fivefold. So the portion of the machine-builders using electric linear actuators at the machines increased from 3,5% to 19%. Linear actuators produce a straight-line resp. translational motion. So e.g. the hot glue nozzle of a packaging machine can be guided straight-lined across a paper
RFID - constantly and throughout the machinery industry implemented
Bochum, July 5, 2010. This year 14% of the machine-builders intend to implement RFID at the machines. RFID stands for radio frequency identification and provides the wireless identification of goods, semi-manufactures or workpieces in the industrial sector. Last year 15% of the machine-builders wanted to implement RFID at the machines. So RFID shows a constant implementation during the last two years. This implementation is taking place with all or almost all of
Intensified interest in application-optimised I/O modules
Bochum, June 15, 2010. The machine-builders are intensified interested in application-optimised I/O modules this year. This confirms the trend to fine-tuning the control and drive technologies that determines the changes in the automation technology this year. With 11% each tenth machine-builders intend to change to application-optimised I/O modules this year. That is an increase in relation to the previous year by more than one third as this value was 8%. What application-optimised
Panel PC benefits from the current trend to fine-tuning the control technology
Bochum, 7th June 2010. Machine-builders prefer fine-tuning the control technology this year. This means to improve the consisting control technology at the machines instead of changing the control technology. The Panel PC benefits from this current trend. Panel PC means operator panel with integrated control system. Compared with other control technologies such as PLC, PC, microprocessor control, CNC or contactor-based control technology the Panel PC shows the highest portion with new

Bochum, May 25, 2010. The Quest Trend Magazine has recently published the first part of a three-part series of articles to the topic „automation, supplier structure, economic crisis“. It concerns the connection between automation technology, its suppliers and the economic crisis. By now two main trends in the automation technology have been appearing. The first main trend of the automation substituted the electro-mechanics by microelectronics. The second main trend consists of
