Opportunity: Use of IIoT and Industry 4.0 in industrial valves

Valves are critical components of various industrial equipment. The failure of valves could lead to disruptions in plant processes. Traditional, schedule-based maintenance methods fail to alert manufacturing companies about impending valve failures. Due to this, technicians often inform about faults while inspecting valves, which, in turn, results in unplanned downtime that could have been avoided by the implementation of Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). However, recent developments in data science, communications, and computing power have enabled companies to leverage IIoT technology for reducing unplanned downtime due to valve failures.

IIoT enables valve experts to monitor the health of valves in a plant remotely and track the efficiency, life cycle, and potential chances of failure of these valves, thus ensuring better valve performance and a secure work environment. Valves equipped with sensors and connected through IIoT can help industry players reduce maintenance and shutdown costs.

Challenge: Rise in collaborations among industry players.

The Industrial Valves Market is highly fragmented. Mergers and acquisitions are expected to help manufacturers enhance their product portfolios and acquire a larger market share. Due to declining oil prices, the oil & gas industry is focusing on the implementation of efficient processes. To fulfill this requirements, big market players are acquiring small companies having innovative solutions to ensure sustainable growth and profitability.
