ARC Advisory Group has just completed fresh market analysis research on Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC) and PLC-based Programmable Automation Controllers (PAC). This ARC market research explores current and historical market performance and related technology and business trends, identifies leading technology suppliers, and provides five-year global forecasts for the PLC and PLC-based PAC market. This new research is based on ARC’s industry-leading market research database, extensive primary and secondary research, and proprietary economic modeling techniques. The research includes competitive analysis, plus five-year market forecasts by region, industry, machinery segmentation, sales channels, and customers.
Florian Gueldner, Director of Research, ARC Advisory Group Europe and principal author of ARC’s PLC and PLC-Based PAC Global Market Research Study says, “Engineering tools in particular have become a key differentiator for PLC suppliers. Future trends might include a supplier-independent universal programming tool. While ARC is not likely to see this emerge in the current generation of PLCs, it does expect interoperability among PLCs to improve.”
This new research is available in a variety of formats to meet the specific research and budgetary requirements of a wide variety of organizations. These include:
- Market Intelligence Workbook (Excel) - personalized spreadsheet includes up to five years of historical data in addition to the current base year market data and five-year market forecast.
