Development prospect of PLC intelligent engineering in China

1, China is still a big manufacturing country and a world production and processing center. There are a large number of manufacturing industries, and all kinds of production equipment must be used, most of which are related to PLC, and a large number of employees who are proficient in PLC control are needed.

2. The industrial structure has been adjusted, gradually changing from labor-intensive to technology-intensive, and a large number of new equipment has been adopted, many of which are related to PLC control, requiring a large number of high-tech talents.

The shortage of PLC intelligent engineers in China

At present, China's industrial manufacturing industry is undergoing automatic production transformation, and the demand for all kinds of automatic production equipment is rising. China PLC market scale and growth trend in 20 12 years Analysis of the reasons for the decline of growth rate Due to the downturn of OEM industry, the decline of small PLC is very obvious, and even the decline of large manufacturers is above 30%. Although the sales volume of PLC this year is the same as that of last year, due to the price drop, the sales volume has dropped obviously, and the price of PLC single product is only 1/4- 1/3 of last year. According to the preliminary estimation of relevant data, at present, the total sales of PLC in China is RMB 3-4 billion (excluding PLC matched with imported main equipment), with an annual growth rate of 15-20%.

After entering 20 13, with the upsurge of automation industry heating up, the PLC market is favored by relevant market research institutions. With the improvement of equipment automation level in the Twelfth Five-Year Plan, the industry predicts that the PLC market will be in a state of continuous growth, and the market scale is expected to reach 9 billion yuan by 20 13. In the next five years, the comprehensive annual growth rate of China PLC market is expected to reach 14. 1%. The China market of PLC is expected to have a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 65,438+02.4%, and its market share in 2006 is close to 750 million dollars. 20 1 1 year reaches1300 million USD; According to the forecast of relevant authorities, this market will exceed1600 million USD in 20 15 years.

At the same time, PLC talents are in short supply, and many enterprises urgently need talents who understand PLC applications. The data shows that there are only 6.5438+0.7 million PLC employees in China, which is obviously far from the needs of enterprises. From the recruitment market, "intelligent engineer" is the position with the greatest demand. Even if you just entered the business, it is easy to find a job as long as you can program with PLC. If you have one or two years of work experience and practical project experience, it is easy to find a well-paid job. Therefore, many fresh graduates go to training in order to find jobs, and those who have already worked in factories, such as electricians, will also choose training in order to keep up with the trend and get better career development.

In China, intelligent control engineering started late, but it developed rapidly. Programmable controller, single chip microcomputer, etc. It has penetrated into all areas of our lives and changed our lives. Products realized by intelligent control can be seen everywhere, such as digital products, security monitoring, instruments and meters, home appliances, electromechanical integration, automobile unit control, industrial control and so on. It can be predicted that the intelligent control industry will be the most promising sunrise industry in China in 2 1 century. At the same time, intelligent engineers have become a shortage in the market. In order to meet the market demand,
