MISSION
Dedicated to serving the automation information needs of industrial machine builders—the original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) that build the machines that make industry work.
We focus exclusively on the OEM market for industrial controls and provide insight and information to those machine builders who are embedding automation and control functionality on machines that will ultimately be used by industrial enterprises.

MARKET
The original equipment manufacturing (OEM) market for industrial manufacturers represents over $350 billion in annual sales. From makers of packaging machines to oilfield equipment, these companies are a unique market in that many of them don’t use much automation technology—but, according to surveys by the Freedonia Group, they purchase more than 60% of all industrial controls deployed in industry, a percentage that continues to grow relative to the maintenance/repair/operations (MRO) portion of the machine automation market.
