ARC predicts Motion Control Systems to Reach $7.8 Billion

ARC预测运动控制系统市场将达7千8百万美元
 
August 22, 2007: The globally expanding general motion control market (GMC) is fueled by greater capabilities and regional expansion which will lead to strong growth going forward. The worldwide market for GMC systems is expected to grow at a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of roughly 7.0% over the next five years, according to a new ARC Advisory Group study.

8月22日消息——全球通用运功控制市场的扩张正在受到更大市场容量和区域增长的推动，将带来强大的增长趋势。ARC咨询集团的一份新研究指出，全球普通运功控制系统市场预计在未来的五年多里，将以大约7.0%的综合年均增长率增长。

The market for GMC systems is being driven by new growth taking place in the developing regions of Asia. An expansion, driven in part by a shift of the semiconductor industry, has occurred from industrialized high wage economies to areas where production costs are far cheaper. In addition, new technologies have made older style machines obsolete as new form factors have presented a clear value proposition to upgrade. “Modular drive and motor components have enabled a step change in machine design allowing OEMs to improve on traditional designs in a myriad of ways. This technology has afforded machine builders a great deal more flexibility in design,” according to Analyst Stefan Surpitski, the principal author of ARC’s “General Motion Control Worldwide Outlook.”

通用运功控制系统市场正受到亚洲发展中地区新增长的驱动。扩展一部分是由于半导体工业已经从高工资的工业化国家向生产成本大大便宜的地区转移而推动的，此外，新的技术使老式机器过时，因为新形式的因素，提出了升级的明确价值主张。ARC的《全球通用运动控制前景》一文主要作者、分析师Stefan Surpitski表示：“模块化的驱动和电机组件使机械设计实现了变化的一步，让OEM厂商在许多方面改进了传统的设计。这项技术已经使得机器制造商获得了更大的设计灵活性。” 

Expansion of the Semiconductor Industry
半导体产业的扩展

The semiconductor industry, in particular, did very well with a capital expenditure growth rate of over 11%. GMC systems are a core element in the machinery used to produce semiconductor components. The GMC systems sold in the semiconductor market require and are equipped with higher precision and far greater dynamic performance. A large majority of applications in this sector require custom engineered solutions, which contribute to the higher value of these solutions. The higher rate of growth in this market, when compared to the other industry segments, is attributed to both an increase in volume and sales of higher value systems.

半导体产业发展得尤其不错，资本支出增长率超过11%。通用运功控制系统是应用于生产半导体组件的机器的关键部分。在半导体市场销售的通用运功控制系统需要并具有更高的精度和更大的动态性能。该领域大部分的应用都要求定制设计的解决方案，这有助于给这些解决方案提供更多的价值。该市场更高的增长率，相比于其他行业市场，是因为在数量上的增加以及更高价值系统的销售额的增加。

Multiple Technologies Converge
多种技术接轨

The role of individual packaging machines is broadening as businesses adjust to the real time market pull. This requires machinery to be a flexible resource on the factory floor with a greater purpose in maximizing utilization throughout its lifetime. This flexibility simply creates a greater operational range, which has led OEM machine builders toward solutions that combine automation technology from a wide range of domains. Specifically, packaging lines and individual machines continue to witness the convergence of robotics, general motion control technology, and vision integrated with machinery, making it easier to commission, configure, and adapt to the day-to-day variation in production requirements. Packaging machine solutions that are adaptable to a wider range of manufactured products are increasingly incorporating the latest GMC and robotic capabilities.

随着业务适应实时市场趋势，单一包装机器的任务也正在扩大。这就要求机器在工厂里是一个灵活的资源，在其整个使用周期里得到最大的利用。这种灵活性简单地创造了更大的操作范围，从而使得OEM厂商选择集成了众多领域自动化技术的解决方案。特别地，包装线及单一机器继续见证机器人、通用运动控制技术以及视觉技术和机器的集成接轨，使其更容易调试、配置和适应日常变化的生产需求。适应更多制品的包装机器解决方案正越来越多地集成最新的通用运动控制和机器人能力。
