How does Automation industry go in the Face of Adversity

Macroeconomic analysis of the National Bureau of Statistics report showed that labor force costs, prices of raw materials, exchange rates, structural adjustment and so on a series of factors, caused the cost of manufacturing enterprises rose. Among them, between 2000 and 2007 the real wages of workers at an average annual growth of 12.3% . In order to reduce the impact of changes in cost, many companies are looking for a solution, and by raising the level of automation to increase productivity is one of them.
　　A large extent, the economic crisis affect the automation industry, in a seminar, one photographer asked a question, the presence of all want to know the answer to the question: which did 2008 economy cause to the company to affect? Finally, they certainly did not get an answer. Like Iceland and Pakistan are not with each other, Like Iceland and Pakistan have refused to take the lead in recognition of national "bankruptcy." In the automation industry, there is no enterprise which is willing to stand up first to talk about "In 2008 to the automation industry's economic impact." of such a sensitive topic.
　　However, we can see that the current financial crisis to the impact of automation:
　　July 11, 2008, One of the world's leading automation company's CEO at an investor conference call, said:" In the current difficult environment, we feel that we have made a very solid performance in the second quarter." This is a solid quarterly performance was the show that local business decreased by 2% year-on-year. Now, the company is to further reduce less profitable parts of the business, including the overall sale of the business in some countries. October 1, 2008, one of the world's leading automation company, announced: lay off 600 employees, which is equivalent to the total number of its global workforce of 3%, and it included with the 50 million U.S. dollars related expenses.
　　Opportunities arising from the restructuring of the manufacturing sector:
　　If you are the purchasers of automation industry, and now you may often fall into this dilemma: On one side is the supplier, the original price did not drop down; the side of the boss's orders to which rises in prices is not willing to sign.
　　Survey shows that the vast majority of suppliers to deal with rising costs is the internal potential responses, nearly half of suppliers began to adjust from the management. But on improving the performance approach, 46% of the suppliers to answer is to upgrade the management system, 20% of the suppliers to answer is to reduce waste, 14% The answer is automation suppliers (Used to deal with rising labor costs), 12% of the suppliers to answer is to reduce the error, 8% of suppliers are vertically integrated to answer.
　　Whether it is to upgrade management system, or the use of automation to deal with the rise in labor costs, it also has brought the new opportunity for the automated profession. MBT magazine in 2006 of manufacturing information management company "Global 100", they include the Emerson Process Management, ABB, Siemens, Rockwell, IInvensys automation vendors, etc.. Information technology to expand the scope of application automation, and information technology also needs the involvement of automation.
　　In the current macroeconomic situation,, the various trades and occupations very much have the pressure, All enterprises are facing the RMB revaluation, rising production costs, energy-saving emission reduction and other related issues, Who can survive gets down, can obtain the development. Strategy to deal with nothing more than to speed up the production rate and shorten the operating cycle, reduce production costs, to vigorously promote energy-saving emission reduction, to reduce all expenditures, and all of which can not be separated from the support of automation.
　　In order to achieve development in a crisis, more and more of the manufacturing sector began to join the ranks of the transition to speed up the upgrading of technical equipment, large-scale mechanization and automation equipment used to reduce the prices of raw materials brought about by the adverse effects - which automation industry has undoubtedly brought great business opportunities. In addition to the manufacturing sector endogenous demand, in recent years, all levels of the government reduced a row of impetus vigorously to the industry informationization and the energy conservation also to bring the huge opportunity for the automated profession.
