Industry Workshop for Integrated Automation

EFFECTIVE DEPLOYMENT OF INTEGRATED AUTOMATION

Workshop Objectives

Smart machines, supercritical processes and new enabling technologies in industrial automation are reshaping engineering and manufacturing practices.

Machine builders, consultants and plant designers and owners who are keen to modernize and progress towards zero-defect operations, or prepare themselves for Industry 4.0 are expected to integrate multiple technologies into a seamless and reliable automation system.

Keeping this in view, AIA organises customised workshops for Industry personnel to sharpen their skills on contemporary automation technologies through interactive learning and hands-on practice under the supervision of various experts.

The main objective of these workshops is to provide experiential learning while focusing on your own project improvement. The workshop and associated lab exercises are conducted in a modern set-up with latest software tools, smart sensors and advanced controllers.

The foundation module covers Tier 1 and Tier 2 concepts & creates a vision for participants to move upward to Tier 3 & Tier 4.
