The leading vendors identified in the global industrial data acquisitions systems market are AMETEK, Keysight Technologies, National Instruments, Spectris, and Yokogawa Electric. This market research study presents a detailed segmentation of this market by product (external chassis and modules, plug-in analog I/O boards, and software), by end user (electrical, automotive, F&B, water and wastewater, semiconductor, and oil and gas), and by geography (Americas, APAC, and EMEA).

Overview of the industrial data acquisition systems market

According to the market research analysts at Technavio, the industrial data acquisition systems market will grow steadily and will post a moderate CAGR of more than 5% over the forecast period. The transition from traditional data acquisition systems to PC-based systems is one of the key factors driving the growth prospects for this market during the predicted period. Technological innovations have led to the development of PC-based data acquisition system. This transition provides flexibility to the end users, along with cost and time reduction. Moreover, in the PC-based data acquisition system, engineers can customize the software, based on the requirement, which increases their overall productivity.

In this industry research report, the analysts have deduced factors such as the development of cloud-based acquisition system to spur the growth prospects for this market over the next four years. With the majority of industries focusing on IoT, most of the devices like sensors are getting interconnected, generating large volume data that will be stored in the cloud. The data stored in the cloud can be accessed anytime from a remote location using a mobile device. It has been observed that the cloud reduces the data storage cost by more than 50%. However, security has been a primary concern for the adoption of cloud-based data acquisition system. With advances in technologies, security standards have been developed, such as Wi-Fi WPA2 encryption and HTTPS secure socket, which is expected to reduce data breach, leading to this market’s growth in the future.
