PACS Making inroads into Automation: 20 reasons to choose a PAC over a PLC

摘要

System integrators are always looking to do more with less, and there is no exception when it comes to control systems. They want a control system that can not only handle digital I/O and motion, but also can integrate vision and instrumentation for automated inspection and testing. The control system also must be able to handle advanced control algorithms and analysis routines in real time and to stream data back to the enterprise. Wondering if you can achieve PC functionality and PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) reliability at the same time? Programmable automation controller (PAC) is a platform that combines the best of both worlds and is fast making inroads into industrial automation.
