There is intense competition among the vendors in the Automation market in China. Moreover, the profitability of vendors has been continuously declining over the years due to the intense competition and price wars. Automation vendors have started developing new customized solutions to fulfill the needs of a particular industry.

Customization assists companies to have greater profit margin compared to other generic automation equipment.”
