Innovation and cost savings are now the key growth drivers for industrial companies worldwide. Introducing more and more electronics and intelligence into their products is mandatory to survive.
As a result, the global industrial and medical electronics production will start a new growth cycle, which is forecast to reach 6.5% in average over the period 2012-2017.
Demand today is outweighed by major energy concerns. This modifies the expected technological road-map and the renewal demand routines. A growing part of the market will turn towards smart energy saving systems.
Industrial and medical electronics can be divided into the following 5 segments.
1. Transportation: electronics equipment for railways, marine and off-road vehicles applications, (excluding automotive electronics, aerospace, and defense systems).
2. Power electronics: includes UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply), labs and industrial power supplies, solar inverters, and power distribution networks as a first segment, solar panels and electronic lighting as two other ones.
3. Automation: control equipment for factory and utility automation on one hand, and building and home automation for the second one.
4. Medical electronics: imaging systems, implants, other diagnosis and therapy equipment.
5. Instrumentation, measuring and test equipment: Automatic Test Equipment (ATE), general instrumentation, telecommunications instrumentation, metering.
Industrial electronic equipment production breakdown by segments in 2017:
