What Are the Critical Driver Fuelling The OPC Server Software Market's Growth?
The growth of the OPC server software market is anticipated to be driven by the increasing utilization of industrial robots for industrial automation endeavors. These robots, which are essentially programmable robotic arms with high degrees of movement flexibility, can perform assorted tasks across diverse conditions. They're capable of interfacing with other OPC UA-compatible devices and apps via the OPC server software, by using a standardized data exchange method. It helps to control and connect the robot's data with the factory's control center. The introduction of Industry 4.0 has also amplified the demand for industrial robots. For instance, the International Federation of Robotics, a non-profit organization based in Germany, reported in October 2023 that the sales of service robots for professional use soared to 158,000 units in 2022, reflecting a 48% increment. Firms are progressively adopting automation as a solution to employee scarcity issues. Thus, the escalating use of industrial robots for industrial automation is expected to fuel the growth of the OPC server software market.
