The industry 4.0 market size has grown exponentially in recent years. It will grow from $167.12 billion in 2023 to $200.77 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 20.1%. The expansion observed in the historical period can be credited to progress in connectivity, automation and robotics, the adoption of big data and analytics, the uptake of cloud computing, and the implementation of cyber-physical systems (CPS).
The industry 4.0 market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $413.22 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 19.8%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be ascribed to the expansion of AI and machine learning, the integration of advanced robotics, the impact of 5G technology, the application of blockchain in the supply chain, and advancements in edge computing. Key trends projected for the forecast period encompass the establishment of smart factories, the implementation of digital twins, collaboration between humans and machines, an emphasis on cybersecurity, and the adoption of remote operations and monitoring.
The industry 4.0 market is anticipated to experience growth due to the rising adoption of industrial robots. Industrial robots, which are mechanical machines designed for automated production tasks in industrial settings, leverage industry 4.0 by integrating advanced technologies such as automation, IoT, and artificial intelligence. This integration enables intelligent, autonomous, and interconnected robotic systems, enhancing productivity, adaptability, and efficiency in production operations. For example, in June 2023, the International Federation of Robotics reported an expected installation of 72,000 industrial robot units in 2022 in the European Union, marking a 6% year-on-year increase from 67,000 units in 2021. The increased adoption of industrial robots is thus a driving force in the industry 4.0 market.
The industry 4.0 market is expected to grow due to the escalating adoption of cloud technology. Cloud adoption involves the migration of computing infrastructure, data, applications, and services from on-premises environments to cloud-based solutions. This adoption is pivotal in enabling Industry 4.0, providing the necessary infrastructure and tools for manufacturers to undergo digital transformation, improve efficiency, and maintain competitiveness in a connected and data-driven industrial landscape. As an illustration, a December 2021 survey by O’Reilly Media Inc. revealed that 90% of 2,834 global respondents have already implemented cloud-based applications in their organizations. Looking ahead, 48% of respondents plan to transition over half of their applications to the cloud within the next year, with 20% aiming for a complete migration to cloud-based solutions. The increasing adoption of cloud technology is therefore a significant driver of growth in the industry 4.0 market.
Technological innovation is emerging as a prominent trend in the industry 4.0 market, with companies strategically incorporating innovations to maintain their market position. For example, in August 2022, Unbox Robotics, an Indian robotic technology company, introduced UnboxSort, a pioneering vertical robotic sortation solution. This industry 4.0 plug-and-play robotics system, driven by Swarm Intelligence, utilizes Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) to efficiently sort parcels vertically into smart racks within limited spaces at e-commerce fulfillment centers and warehouses, enabling merchants to scale up logistics for high parcel volumes.
Major industry players are also launching new products to enhance profitability, such as IoT controllers in the field of Industry 4.0. An IoT controller in this context serves as a device or system responsible for managing and coordinating connected devices, sensors, and machines within smart industrial environments. For instance, in May 2023, NOVUS Automation, a Brazil-based manufacturer specializing in data solutions and process control, unveiled the N20K48 IoT controller. Featuring a robust core controller and expandable micromodules, including a Wi-Fi micromodule for enhanced Industry 4.0 integration, the N20K48 facilitates seamless communication, legacy device incorporation, and centralized data management on a single network. This innovation streamlines real-time monitoring and issue identification in production, showcasing NOVUS Automation's commitment to delivering cutting-edge instruments for control, data acquisition, and SCADA systems.
In November 2022, Lear Corporation, a US-based automotive technology company, acquired InTouch Automation Inc. for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition strengthens Lear’s capabilities in automation and manufacturing flexibility. InTouch Automation's product line aligns with Lear’s Industry 4.0 strategy, focusing on deploying technology to automate the validation and testing of components and finished seats. InTouch Automation Inc., based in the US, is a provider of automated testing equipment and Industry 4.0 technologies.
