The trend of recording instrument development

The use of recorders in the Chinese market is gradually declining. With the development and improvement of functions such as DCS, microcomputer and configuration software, the functions possessed by many recorders have now been replaced by the above-mentioned emerging media, and their functions are much broader and more direct than that of recorders. And easy to operate.

The Chinese recorder market (whether it is domestic brands or foreign brands) still has a certain market in the next two or three years, and will not show the decline in the use of steep slopes. The specific reasons are as follows:

Some small and medium-sized enterprises in China (such as electric power, self-supplying water, pharmaceutical and papermaking) have relatively low production capacity, and the technological process cannot form a technological grade like that of a large state-owned or privately-owned company and form their own large-scale production lines. The important data records of the individual process links in the production process will still be accomplished using the recorder due to cost issues. The process pipelines of some large, established and long-established companies that are still in use will continue to use the original recorder's data recorder for data logging because of some reasons (eg, the service life is approaching the deadline, etc.). .

Some large-scale private and state-owned enterprises have already started using complete sets of process lines in actual production. This means that if relatively low-tech recorders are used to record a certain production process in a large-scale link, the cost of a certain scale must be higher than The use of emerging systems such as DCS, which are nowadays and have a higher level of functionality, is much higher. Therefore, recorders do not have a market in some large companies. Many of the processes that use recorders are bought with the equipment several years ago.

For many small-scale enterprises with high energy consumption and low output in China (thermal power generation, coal mining, water plants, etc.), they adopted the policy of direct closure or merger with large enterprises two or three years ago. For small businesses, which are the main market players for recorders, there is no doubt that the use of recorders will obviously drop.

For some special process links, such as pharmaceutical sterilizers, biochemical incubators, etc., which cannot be connected to the production line, they still need the use of recorders because if only one system is used for a single link If you do, the cost will rise a lot, so the market for recorders in China is not going to show a sharp decline.
