Based on end user, the industrial automation control market is bifurcated into process industry and discrete industry. The discrete industry segment held the largest Industrial Automation Control Market share in 2024. Discrete industries, including semiconductor & electronics, automotive, aerospace & defense, manufacturing, and others, produce distinct products defined by bills of materials and routing processes that outline lead times and costs. These industries require end-to-end manufacturing solutions to efficiently produce and deliver final products. Industrial automation plays a key role in reducing operational costs and maximizing productivity in these sectors. In discrete manufacturing, products are produced sequentially by skilled workers based on production orders that frequently change according to demand. Discrete manufacturers produce finished goods such as nuts, screws, handles, and other components, which are either used in further manufacturing processes or can be disassembled for reuse.
