HMS Report: Industrial Ethernet and wireless growing fast in 2017
HMS報告：工業(yè)以太網(wǎng)和無線技術(shù)在2017年快速增長

February 21, 2017 - HMS Industrial Networks now presents their annual analysis of the industrial network market, which focuses on new installed nodes within factory automation globally. As an independent supplier of products and services for industrial communication and the Internet of Things, HMS has a substantial insight into the industrial network market. Here are some of the trends they see within industrial communication in 2017.
2017年2月21日——HMS工業(yè)網(wǎng)絡(luò)公司發(fā)布了其工業(yè)網(wǎng)絡(luò)市場的年度分析，重點是全球工廠自動化中的新安裝節(jié)點。作為工業(yè)通信和物聯(lián)網(wǎng)產(chǎn)品和服務(wù)的獨立供應(yīng)商，HMS對工業(yè)網(wǎng)絡(luò)市場具有極強的洞察力。以下是他們對2017年工業(yè)通訊一些趨勢的觀察。

Industrial Internet of Things is boosting Industrial Ethernet growth
工業(yè)物聯(lián)網(wǎng)促進(jìn)工業(yè)以太網(wǎng)增長

According to HMS, industrial Ethernet is growing faster than previous years, with a growth rate of 22%. Industrial Ethernet now makes up for 46% of the global market compared to 38% last year. EtherNet/IP and PROFINET are tied at first place, with PROFINET dominating in Central Europe, and EtherNet/IP leading in North America. Runners-up globally are EtherCAT, Modbus-TCP and Ethernet POWERLINK.
根據(jù)HMS所言，工業(yè)以太網(wǎng)的增長速度比往年更快，增長率為22％。工業(yè)以太網(wǎng)現(xiàn)在占全球市場的46％，而去年為38％。 EtherNet / IP和PROFINET份額最大，其中PROFINET主要市場在中歐，EtherNet / IP在北美占主導(dǎo)地位。緊跟其后的是EtherCAT、Modbus-TCP和Ethernet POWERLINK。

“We definitely see an accelerated transition towards various industrial Ethernet networks when it comes to new installed nodes,” says Anders Hansson, Marketing Director at HMS. “The transition to industrial Ethernet is driven by the need for high performance, integration between factory installations and IT-systems, as well as the Industrial Internet of Things in general.”
HMS市場總監(jiān)Anders Hansson表示：“看看新安裝的節(jié)點，我們看到的無疑是加速向各種工業(yè)以太網(wǎng)網(wǎng)絡(luò)過渡。大體上，向工業(yè)以太網(wǎng)過渡主要是受到對高性能、工廠設(shè)備和IT系統(tǒng)集成，以及工業(yè)物聯(lián)網(wǎng)的需求驅(qū)動。”

Wireless is redefining the networking picture
無線正重新定義網(wǎng)絡(luò)場景

Wireless technologies are growing quickly by 32% and now accounts for 6% of the total market. Within Wireless, WLAN is the most popular technology, followed by Bluetooth. “Wireless is increasingly being used by machine builders to realize innovative automation architectures and new solutions for connectivity and control, including Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) solutions via tablets or smartphones,” says Anders Hansson.
無線技術(shù)迅速增長32％，目前占總市場的6％。對于無線技術(shù)，WLAN最受歡迎，其次是藍(lán)牙。“無線技術(shù)越來越多地被機器制造商用來實現(xiàn)創(chuàng)新自動化架構(gòu)以及新的連接和控制解決方案，包括通過平板電腦或智能手機的自帶設(shè)備辦公（BYOD）解決方案，”Anders Hansson說道。

Fieldbus is still growing, but the growth is slowing down
現(xiàn)場總線仍在增長，但增長放緩

Fieldbuses are still the most widely used type of networks with 48% of the market. Fieldbuses are still growing as many users ask for the traditional simplicity and reliability offered by fieldbuses, but the growth rate is slowing down, currently at around 4% compared to 7% last year. The dominant fieldbus is PROFIBUS with 14% of the total world market, followed by Modbus-RTU and CC-Link, both at 6%.
現(xiàn)場總線仍然是使用最廣的網(wǎng)絡(luò)類型，占據(jù)48％的市場?，F(xiàn)場總線仍在增長，因為現(xiàn)場總線傳統(tǒng)的簡單性和可靠性是許多用戶看重的，不過增長率正在放緩，目前為4％，而去年為7％。占主導(dǎo)地位的現(xiàn)場總線是PROFIBUS，占全球市場的14％，緊跟其后的是Modbus-RTU和CC-Link，均為6％。

Regional facts
地域情況

In Europe and the Middle East, PROFIBUS is still the leading network while PROFINET has the fastest growth rate. Runners up are EtherCAT, Modbus-TCP and Ethernet POWERLINK.
在歐洲和中東地區(qū)，PROFIBUS仍然是領(lǐng)先的網(wǎng)絡(luò)，而PROFINET的增長速度最快。其后是EtherCAT、Modbus-TCP和Ethernet POWERLINK。

The US market is dominated by the CIP networks where EtherNet/IP has overtaken DeviceNet in terms of market shares.
美國市場由CIP網(wǎng)絡(luò)控制，其中EtherNet / IP在市場份額上已經(jīng)超越DeviceNet。

In Asia, a fragmented network market is very visible. No network stands out as truly market-leading, but PROFIBUS, PROFINET, EtherNet/IP, Modbus and CC-Link are widely used. EtherCAT continues to establish itself as a significant network, and CC-Link IE Field is also gaining traction.
在亞洲，網(wǎng)絡(luò)市場碎片化，沒有作為真正主導(dǎo)性的網(wǎng)絡(luò)，但PROFIBUS、PROFINET、EtherNet / IP，Modbus和CC-Link應(yīng)用較廣。EtherCAT繼續(xù)自成一種重要網(wǎng)絡(luò)，而CC-Link IE Field也在獲得關(guān)注。

More and more devices are getting connected
越來越多的設(shè)備實現(xiàn)聯(lián)網(wǎng)

“The presented figures represent our consolidated view, taking into account insights from colleagues in the industry, our own sales statistics and overall perception of the market,” says Anders Hansson. “It is interesting to see that industrial Ethernet and Wireless combined now account for more than half of the market at 52%, compared to fieldbuses at 48%. The success of a series of industrial Ethernet networks and the addition of growing Wireless technologies confirms that the network market remains fragmented, as users continue to ask for connectivity to a variety of fieldbus, industrial Ethernet and wireless networks. All in all, industrial devices are getting increasingly connected, boosted by trends such as Industrial Internet of Things and Industry 4.0. From our point of view, we are well-suited to grow with these trends, since HMS is all about ‘Connecting Devices.’”

“這些展示的數(shù)據(jù)代表了我們統(tǒng)一的視野，將我們業(yè)內(nèi)同事的見解、我們自己的銷售數(shù)據(jù)以及市場的總體預(yù)測均考慮在內(nèi)，”Anders Hansson說。“有趣的是，工業(yè)以太網(wǎng)和無線合計現(xiàn)在占據(jù)了一半以上的市場，達(dá)52％，而現(xiàn)場總線占48％。一系列工業(yè)以太網(wǎng)網(wǎng)絡(luò)的成功以及日益增長的無線技術(shù)的增加，證明了網(wǎng)絡(luò)市場仍然分散，因為用戶繼續(xù)要求連接到各種現(xiàn)場總線、工業(yè)以太網(wǎng)和無線網(wǎng)絡(luò)?？偠灾?，受到工業(yè)物聯(lián)網(wǎng)和工業(yè)4.0等趨勢的推動，越來越多的工業(yè)設(shè)備實現(xiàn)了聯(lián)網(wǎng)。從我們的角度來看，基于HMS的座右銘‘Connecting Devices,’ 我們將順應(yīng)這些趨勢持續(xù)成長。”
