The Impact of Ethernet on Industrial Communications

Transcription

1 The Impact of on Industrial Communications Tim Dawson Research Director & Senior Market Analyst IMS Research Industrial Technology & Development Conference - 28 th August 2008

2 Company Overview Founded in the 1980s Leading supplier of market research, business intelligence and consultancy services to global electronics industries Over 75 analysts based in UK, USA and China Privately-owned & independent Recognized for detailed, in-depth, highly analytical reports

3 Research Expertise IMS Research is expert in the field of industrial automation producing WW and regional specific reports on a complete range of markets The company has been gathering industrial communications market data for over 10 years Dedicated studies produced on industrial networking, industrial and wireless technologies in industrial networking

4 What is Industrial? developed in the 1970 s Industrial variants of developed in 1990 s in Industry taken seriously from A communication technology for all industry s needs?

5 Structure of the Market Nodes installed by technology (Installed base and new nodes annually) connectivity of industrial devices: PLCs Operator Terminals (HMIs) I/O Modules Variable Speed Drives Motion Controllers Industrial PCs networking infrastructure components (industrial quality) Converters Hubs Unmanaged Switches Managed Switches Routers

6 TCP/IP in Industry Installed Base TCP/IP was the most common form of used in industry in 2006 and is forecast to maintain this position in TCP/IP TCP/IP Industrial Variants Industrial Variants Total Installed base at the end of M nodes w/w Total Installed base at the end of M nodes w/w

7 TCP/IP in Industry Annual New Nodes TCP/IP was the most common form of used in industry in 2006 and is forecast to maintain this position in TCP/IP TCP/IP Industrial Variants Industrial Variants Number of new nodes installed w/w during M Number of new nodes estimated to be installed w/w during M

8 Industrial Technologies Industrial technologies tend to fall into 2 main groups General industrial control High speed applications (e.g. drives, motion control) 1400 New Nodes (thousands) Powerlink EtherCAT SERCOS III PROFINET /IP Modbus TCP/IP HSE FL-Net Others

9 Enabled Devices The percentage of industrial devices that are enabled will continue to grow 80% 70% 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% 0% PLCs (Hardware) Operator Terminals I/O Modules Variable Speed Drives Motion Controllers Industrial PCs % of Devices that are Enabled

10 Industrial Regional Differences The variants of used in industry are influenced by: Region Company EMEA Germany Siemens PROFINET Americas USA Rockwell /IP Asia-Pacific China -?

11 Industrial Components Great variations in the growth rates of networking infrastructure components. Hubs vs. Switches Unmanaged vs. managed switches Reveues ($K) Converters Hubs Unmanaged Switches Managed Switches Routers

12 Components Market Influences New lines and build Increasing availability of industrial components The need to improve determinism Price pressure from increased competition, particularly from Far Eastern manufacturers Conflict of interests between industrial and IT departments Familiarity with existing Fieldbus technologies & options Availability of trained staff

13 Industrial Component Suppliers Top 12 Suppliers of Industrial Components - Worldwide (In Alphabetical Order) Advantech Beckhoff Digi International GarrettCom Hirschmann Electronics Korenix Moxa Technologies Phoenix Contact RuggedCom Schneider Electric Siemens Sixnet

14 Conclusions Node shipments of industrial are forecast to grow with a CAGR of nearly 22% until 2011 Shipments of PROFINET, /IP and Powerlink will increase rapidly to be a significant proportion of node shipments in 2011 The market for industrial components will grow at a similar rate to new node shipments (over 20% per annum until 2011)

15 Thank You Tim Dawson Research Director & Senior Market Analyst IMS Research
