OVERVIEW

The main objective of PLC & SCADA (Industrial Automation) Training is to make the aspiring engineers acquainted with the conceptual as well as practical knowledge of the Industrial Automation & latest technologies being used to achieve industrial automation. The idea of organizing this workshop is to inculcate the basic fundamentals of automation in the students and provide them with a platform to work on, In The Near Future.

Programmable Logic Controller or PLC is a computing system used to control electromechanical processes.

SCADA stands for Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition. It is a type of industrial control system that is used to monitor and control facilities and infrastructure in industries.

The Most Used Guiding Force Behind An Automated Industrial Plant Is A “Programmable Logic Controller”. PLCs Along With Certain Other Necessary Ingredients Like Sensors, Motors, Actuators, Valves, Conveyors, Boilers, SCADA Systems, Computers & Many More, Makes A Real Automated Manufacturing Plant.

Advantages  of PLC and SCADA

  • To Increase Labor Productivity
  • To Improve Worker Safety
  • To Improve Product Quality
  • To Reduce Labor Cost
