IO-link Market Drivers



Increasing Penetration of Automation:



Increasing adoption of automation across industries is one of the major drivers for IO-Link, triggering the growth for this technology. Integration of automation system across industries offers greater efficiency, higher reliability, enhanced asset management, production boost, better process speed and cost effectiveness, which is accelerating the amount of investments made by organizations to remain productive. This in turn, drives the growth of IO-Link technology, as this technology is a point-to-point serial communication protocol, which is highly being used for communicating with sensors and actuators in industrial automation processes. In July 2020, for digital industrial transformation, Carlo Gavazzi announced the launch of its new IIoT-enabled IO-Link Masters, YL212 and YN115, that supports leading industrial Ethernet-based system protocols including EtherNet/IP, PROFINET IO and MODBUS TCP access. This product has advanced features such as embedded web interface and OPC UA, which offers full remote access, control of the IO-Link masters and connected devices. This product also offers reliability, transparent process data transmission into the cloud-based systems from the sensors and actuators along with access to the data, attached to the smart devices through the Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) and OPC UA clients. This type of product with such unique features fuels the growth of his market. PI Organization’s recent research report shows that, the performance of Profinet RT fulfills 95% timing requirements of industry-based automation. Hence, the adoption of automation will drive the growth of IO-link market during the forecast period.



Fieldbus Integration:



IO-Link is an open source interface, which makes this technology a Fieldbus independent solution. It can be integrated into all the fieldbus systems including PROFINET, AS-i, CANopen, CC-Link, PROFIBUS, EtherCAT, EtherNet/IP, DeviceNet, Interbus, Powerlink and others. Different organizations use different networking protocols for their systems, which make the fieldbus-independent IO-Link more suitable for the companies, as it allows the businesses to connect their products to different systems and control level devices including Programmable Logic Controller (PLC), Supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) and others. This in turn, saves the investments that are already made by the manufacturers, plant operators, machine builders and others, on the systems. Even when the organizations decide to migrate from one technology to other technology, IO-Link makes the process cost effective, by reducing the overall cost. In January 2019, Korenix introduced a new cost-effective Profinet supported, Fieldbus gateway, JetLink 1302, which can transmit the data faster among the devices and provide seamless communication between fieldbus and industrial Ethernet communication protocol. Hence, the fieldbus independency of IO-Link is one of the major growth drivers of this market.



IO-link Market Challenges



Security Issues:



IO-link technology is vulnerable to various security threats such as cross-site request forgery (CSRF), reflected cross-site scripting (XSS), blind command injection, denial-of-service (DoS) issues, spear phishing and others, which hinders the growth of this market. Furthermore, in February 2020, OTORIO security researchers discovered a security weakness in PROFINET-IO stack, which is responsible for handling the packets that is used in device management. If a device is overloaded with multiple diagnostic packets, it may create a security threat that allows the attackers to send the devices into a denial-of-service (DoS) condition, which can create disruption in operational processes. Many industrial devices such as devices produced by Siemens, MoxaEDS Ethernet switches and others; that rely on Siemens PROFINET-IO stack are highly being affected. Hence, the above mentioned factor creates security-related issues that will hinder the growth of this market during 2021-2026.
