Control & Automation

Control & Automation refers to the use of technology to control and monitor processes, machinery, and systems with minimal human intervention. In industrial settings, it involves integrating various control systems such as PLCs (Programmable Logic Controllers), DCS (Distributed Control Systems), and other automation technologies to optimize production, increase efficiency, and improve safety.

Control systems are responsible for managing variables such as temperature, pressure, speed, and flow in industrial processes. These systems collect data from sensors, process it, and send commands to actuators or machines to maintain desired conditions. Automation takes this a step further by using advanced algorithms, robotics, and AI to perform tasks without direct human input, from simple tasks like opening a valve to complex ones like managing entire manufacturing lines or power plants.

Together, control and automation provide enhanced reliability, precision, and consistency, driving productivity, reducing costs, and improving safety in a wide range of industries, including manufacturing, oil & gas, pharmaceuticals, and utilities.
