Obsolescence costs industry big time. Obsolete #ControlSystems can lead to increased maintenance costs, downtime & energy waste. Cyber attacks are a risk on unsupported systems. #RepairDontWaste works for some, but maintaining obsolescence long term can far exceed upgrade costs.

The food and beverage industry #Automation market is experiencing significant growth, driven by the increasing demand for operational efficiency, food safety, and innovative production techniques. #ControlSystems #UKmfg

Top PLC Manufacturers by Global Market Share: Siemens: ~30% to 33% Rockwell Automation: ~22% Mitsubishi Electric: ~10% to 12% Schneider Electric: ~8% to 10% #ControlSystems #Automation

Manufacturing accounts for the largest share of PLC installations, with 52% of global PLCs deployed in this sector as of 2022. Siemens is the largest PLC manufacturer, holding a 23% global market share in 2022, according to Statista. #ControlSystems #Automation #UKmfg

Production Lines across the world rely on #Automation and #ControlSystems. Often, Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) are at the heart of the process. These 'brains' of manufacturing work away day in day out, completely unnoticed, ensuring reliable production 24/7 #UKmfg

China is buying #Robots From $12.46 Billion 2025 to an est. $26.40 Billion 2034. That's what you do when you're SERIOUS about Manufacturing. Policies prioritising #Automation & Robotics investment are non negotiable, if Andy Burnham is serious about Reindustrialisation and #UKMfg

RFID Systems can be a game changer when it comes to accurately tracking parts and products throughout the production process. They're often hugely beneficial to Manufacturers and #Automation users who integrate RFID technology within their #ControlSystems.

Human Machine Interfaces (HMIs) reliably Control and Monitor Industrial #Automation & Machinery. They contain bespoke software that's been designed for that specific application - sometimes the only working version of the software in the entire world 👊 #ControlSystems

Human Machine Interfaces (HMIs) are a great way to monitor and control #Automation. However, once they become obsolete, like some Rockwell PanelView Plus HMIs, carful consideration is needed to mitigate the risks of potentially lengthy downtime should they fail. #ControlSystems

Bench testing PLC code is a great way of trying out new elements and functionality within the code. It allows PLC Programming to be carried out by the programmer away from live automation and often the pressures that go with it. #Automation #ControlSystems #PLCProgrammer
