COVID-19 Impact on the Global IO-Link Market
The outbreak and the spread of COVID-19 have significantly impacted players operating in the IO-Link value chain. Rising demand for Industry 4.0 is one of the key factors fueling the growth of the IO-Link market. However, as the complete shutdown of all manufacturing plants, public places and offices due to lockdowns across the world, the demand for IO-Link solutions decreased dramatically. Also, demand of these electronics have decreased significantly worldwide owing to lockdowns imposed by different governments to contain the spread of the COVID-19, it has impacted the growth of the IO-Link market. Moreover, these lockdowns have also impacted the GDP of countries and the per capita income of individuals across the world. The low disposable income has resulted in reduced purchasing power of masses, thereby resulting in a decline in the y-o-y growth for the whole market.
However, the latter half of the year is expected to witness normalization in the inventory levels and increased demand for IO-Link products owing to stabilization in the automotive vertical. The COVID-19 outbreak affected the production of IO-Link as factories across the world were temporarily shut down to curb the spread of the infection and the demand was also decreased.
Market Dynamics:
Driver: Ability to support all fieldbus protocols
IO-Link is fieldbus-independent and can be integrated into all fieldbus systems such as PROFIBUS, PROFINET, AS-i, CANopen, CC-Link, DeviceNet, EtherCAT, EtherNet/IP, Interbus S, Powerlink, and Sercos III. It relies on standards such as M12, M8, or M5 connectors and three-wire cables. In the IO-Link protocol, data from field-level sensors and actuators is transmitted from the IO-Link master device through fieldbus and Ethernet communication systems to control-level devices, i.e., PLC or SCADA. IO-Link also enables an extended diagnosis of sensors and actuators, and eases parameter setting due to bidirectional communication. Moreover, systems with IO-Link are not dependent on fieldbus. Hence, these can be implemented for production automation across sectors such as automotive, packaging, solar, glass production, biogas production, and woodworking. This, in turn, spurs the demand for IO-Link across industries.
Restraint: Use of compact machines
IO-Link solutions help reduce cables and wiring for industrial machines. Manufacturing industries demand compact and reliable solutions for their operational processes. This leads to the requirement of compact machines on a factory floor. Such compact machines, apart from being small, consume less power and offer better performance as compared with other industrial solutions. Also, the wiring in compact machines is already short. In such cases, deploying IO-Link solutions is costlier for industry players. In addition, these machines are efficient and require lesser space than traditional machines and other industrial solutions. Hence, the use of compact machines for industrial automation is a key hurdle for the growth of the IO-Link market.
Opportunity: Limitations of Ethernet to create lucrative opportunities
A single shared cable can serve as the basis for a complete Ethernet network. However, there are practical limitations to the size of an Ethernet network. Electrical signals propagate quickly along a cable, but they weaken as they travel. Also, electrical interference from neighboring devices disturbs the signal. Hence, the network cable must be short enough to enable devices at opposite ends to receive each other's signals and with minimal delay. Moreover, there is a limit to the number of devices that can coexist in a single Ethernet network. These limitations of the Ethernet network provide a lucrative opportunity for the IO-Link market.
Challenge: Cyber risks associated with automation systems
IO-Link solutions are vulnerable to threats such as cross-site request forgery (CSRF), reflected cross-site scripting (XSS), blind command injection, and denial-of-service (DoS) issues. Also, Other risks associated with IO-Link include spear phishing, watering hole, and database injection. In a phishing assault, a digital criminal can steal the data from devices by deceiving them into sharing the security key for an application. Cyber risks threaten industrial automation and control systems (IACS). However, cybersecurity measures are taken to secure IACS against such risks. These assaults are used to threaten manufacturing industries and gain monetary benefits or critical business information. These dangers begin from the web, corporate systems, programming overhauls, and unapproved access.

IO-Link can help reduce manufacturing costs, speed up commissioning times, reduce the number of network nodes, and lower the downtime of machines or systems. This factor is expected to increase the adoption of IO-Link in discrete industries.
The packaging automation solutions segment is expected to record the highest CAGR during the forecastperiod of the IO-Link market
This growth is attributed to the increasing demand for effective and speedy packaging processes with minimal human interventions. Packaging automation solutions are used in various packaging processes, including product sorting, product handling, product storage, and product shipment. IO-Link solutions help optimize the packaging process by establishing bidirectional communication between sensors and automation systems. Also, IO-Link solutions offer features such as rapid and safe commissioning, reliable and high-quality packaging processes, improved availability of the final packaging machines, rapid returns on investment, and the ability to carry out remote diagnosis. Hence, the continuous evolution of packaging automation and the high adoption of IO-Link-based sensors are expected to boost the demand for packaging automation solutions in the near future.
Europe held the largest share of the IO-Link market in 2020 of the IO-Link market
Europe held the largest share of the IO-Link market in 2020 owing to the presence of automotive, aerospace & defense, and industrial manufacturing verticals in the region.
