Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) are the backbone of modern industrial automation, orchestrating critical operations across diverse sectors. As these controllers become increasingly complex, ...

We’re all used to general purpose microcontroller boards such as the Arduino or its many imitators, but perhaps we don’t see as much of their industrial cousins. A programmable logic controller (PLC) ...

are process and control implementations that cover everything from test labs and fabrication plants to military and medical electronics to basic data acquisition. They leverage various sensor types ...

This file type includes high-resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. One of the key parts of automation is observing variation, and a process’ ability to control it. Reducing variation ...

The modern programmable logic controller (PLC) is at the nexus of two debates that are taking place daily at opposite ends of the control-system spectrum. At one end is the debate over the ideal ...

Engineers and developers looking for a programmable logic controller (PLC) might be worth checking out the new CANADUINO Arduino MEGA 2560 compatible PLC which has been created by Universe Solder ...

Providing Unprecedented Connectivity through All Levels of Process and Business Operations, Now with Support for Honeywell’s Industrial Internet of Things Honeywell Process Solutions (HPS) today ...

When electronics release the Magic Smoke, more often than not it’s a fairly sedate event. Something overheats, the packaging gets hot enough to emit that characteristic and unmistakable odor, and ...

How PLCs enable automated systems to be altered via software rather than hardware changes. Why PACs are often used when integrating capabilities such as safety, motion, distributed I/O, and network ...
