“MES segment to grow at highest CAGR in global process automation and instrumentation market“

The manufacturing execution system (MES) helps improve productivity, reduce cycle time, and eliminate human dependency for processing data. MES applications provide cost savings and opportunities in operations, and help deliver high performance of production assets across the supply chain. MES provides information that helps manufacturers understand about the current conditions of a plant floor, which can be optimized to improve production output. MES works in real time to enable the control of multiple elements of the complex production process, e.g., personnel, inputs, machines, and support services.

“Control valves segment to grow at highest CAGR in global process automation and instrumentation market”

The requirement of control valves by the industries for ensuring precise flow control, enabling automatic operation, reduced wastage of resources are the factors driving the control valves segment. The increased use of control valves in oil & gas and growing government initiatives pertaining to flow control projects such as gas pipelines and water distribution is positively impacting the growth of control valves.

“Oil & gas and energy & power continued to be the major markets from 2019 to 2024”
