The OPC server
market is consolidated, and the number of suppliers is large in counts.
Considering the aforementioned factors, the Degree of Competition is Moderate
to High. However, the demand for OPC server is analyzed to grow which is
boosting the market growth rate increasing government initiative for OPC server
production units Thus, anticipating the growth in demand for OPC server in the
forecast period.
Machine-to-Machine Communication is one of the
most prominent sectors using OPC server for better enhancement of the products. The rising M2M connections in various industries and the growing adoption of
new connectivity technologies will accelerate machine-to-machine (M2M)
connections market growth. Furthermore, the substantial penetration of cellular
services globally and increasing adoption of 4G, and emerging 5G cellular
technology is further driving the growth of the wireless connectivity
technology in the machine-to-machine (M2M) connections. OPC server for M2M
communications is used for various industrial applications such as automated
maintenance and data collection. It is also used for intelligent stock control
and implementation of just-in-time systems which forces more and more companies
to start using this type of connectivity to improve the efficiency level and
address great production challenges which are easy to solve.
Europe holds a major share of the OPC server market owing to the manufacturing industry. The rapid adoption of factory
automation and industrial control across the region has revolutionized the
digital and physical aspects of manufacturing sectors for offering optimum
performance, resulting to drive the OPC Server market. As automation has become
the ultimate phenomena in the enterprise across Italy, which deals with
low-code tools, RPA, no-code and several other technology, IBM announced the
acquisition of myInvenio, a process mining software company, in Reggio Emilia,
Italy. The acquisition was formed in April 2021 to provide organizations with data-driven
software, and enable them to automate business processes using AI, and also
provide a comprehensive suite of AI-powered automation capabilities. Such
factor will drive the market growth in the forecast period 2022-2027. In
November 2021, Aptean, a global provider of enterprise software solutions
acquired Objective Holding, Belgium based provider of innovative manufacturing
execution systems (MES), workforce management (WFM) solutions as well as
warehouse management systems (WMS). The acquisition was developed to offer
strong presence of Aptean across the Benelux region and serves industries, such
as heavy equipment, food and beverage, plastics and furniture manufacturing.
Increased use of OPC server in various
end-use industries such as oil and gas, manufacturing, automotive, power and
others are expected to boost the demand for the OPC server market during the
forecast period. Manufacturers are embracing the standard’s ability to
implement OPC in a non-Microsoft environment, along with its enhanced signing
and encryption of all messages for better security assurances. These security
upgrades have eliminated callbacks and the use of DCOM for remote connections.
Its extensible data stack and ease of setup are permitting manufacturers to
push service as a solution directly to the controller via manufacturing
execution systems (MES) to drive plant efficiencies. Thus, the increasing
development and investments in the manufacturing sector will drive the market
growth of the overall OPC server. According to India Brand Equity Foundation,
India has potential to become a global manufacturing hub and by 2030, it can
add more than US$ 500 billion annually to the global economy.

OPC Server Market Growth
Drivers:
Emergence of Industrial robots are
set to drive the market growth forward
The emergence of Industrial robots requires secure, standardized exchange of data and information between its integrated robot systems and their components to provide a comparison of the statuses and parameters over many installed systems and allows for the identification of anomalies which in turn is set to propel the growth of the OPC Server market in coming years. Additionally, the increasing demand for unified interface standard for robots to address asset management and condition monitoring is driving the growth of the OPC U/A server market. In 2019, VDMA, the Germany-based Mechanical Engineering Industry Association, launched the OPC Robotics Companion Specification that covers asset management and condition monitoring to enables organisations to surface information on the operational status of their robot systems, down to the individual component level. Companies can monitor the condition of their robot systems against given parameters such as motor temperature, load or time cycle. This information collected can be integrated into applications pertaining to use cases such as predictive maintenance, thus helping manufacturers to plan maintenance, thus mitigating expensive production downtime.
