1. Technical barriers and early development challenges
Technical barriers are mainly reflected in the development and production of industrial control computers and systems, which require a high degree of professional knowledge and technology accumulation. In the early stage of development, China’s industrial control computer industry is faced with the problem that the technology starts late and the core technology is subject to people. For example, global industrial computer technology is growing, but China may still be playing catch-up in some key technologies.

This requires a lot of research and development investment and long-term technology accumulation, which is a big challenge for some emerging enterprises.
Technical barriers are also reflected in patented technology. According to patent data, although China leads the world in the number of patent applications in the industrial computer field, there may still be room for improvement in the quality of patents and the mastery of core technologies.
2. Industrial ecology and market barriers
Industrial ecological barriers mainly refer to the need to build a complete industrial chain ecosystem in the industrial control computer and system industry, including the collaboration of upstream and downstream enterprises, the unification of technical standards, and the stability of the supply chain. For example, in the process of development, the domestic operating system faces competition with the existing Windows operating system ecosystem, and needs to build its own ecosystem moat.
Market barriers are reflected in the difficulty of marketing and application popularization of industrial control computer products. Because industrial control computers and systems often need to be closely integrated with specific industrial application scenarios, the development of market acceptance and user habits is a long and complex process.
In addition, the downstream application field of industrial control computer and system industry is wide, and how to customize and optimize products according to the needs of different industries is also one of the market barriers that enterprises need to face.
3. Policy and regulatory barriers
350022M Policy barriers mainly refer to the government’s regulatory policies, standards, and safety requirements for the industrial control computer and system industry. For example, the safety of industrial control systems has been highly valued at the national level, and relevant regulations and standards are constantly improving and strengthening, which puts forward higher compliance requirements for enterprises.
Policy support and incentives are also important factors affecting the development of the industry. The government’s supportive policies can promote technological innovation and industry development, but they may also bring risks of policy dependence and market distortion.
In addition, changes in the international trade environment may also have an impact on the industrial control computer and system industry. For example, international trade frictions may lead to unstable supply of key raw materials, affecting product costs and market competitiveness.
V. Industrial chain
Industrial computer industry chain upstream including semiconductors, printed circuit boards, chipsets, power supplies and other raw materials and related parts; The midstream is the manufacturing link of industrial computer industry; Downstream includes power, robotics, packaging, logistics, rail transit and other application fields. In the industrial chain structure of China’s industrial control system, the upstream is power electronic components, mainly IGBT, DSP chips, resistors, capacitors, permanent magnet materials, silicon steel sheets, structural parts, plastic parts, etc. The midstream of the industrial chain is the industrial control system, which can be divided into three parts: control layer, drive layer and execution layer. The downstream of the industrial chain is the application scenario, mainly for OEM industries and project-oriented industries.
