Question and Answer

3. PLC Trends
PLC Trends

4. Global PLC Market Trends
Global End Users outsourcing design work to OEMs and SIs
PLC Buying Power is moving to OEMs and SIs
OEMs tend to use many small PLCs instead of one large PLC
Global OEMs now building Machines in China
Previously machines were imported into mainland China
Lower costs by sourcing Components (PLCs) inside China
Global OEMs purchase PLCs as Components
Buy best component for the job at the best price
Pay for only the necessary performance and features
Do not standardize on one brand for all components
Consequently no PLC supplier has more than 26% of the China PLC market
