The Internet of Things (IoT) has made Today’s manufacturing processes a lot more Intelligent, efficient, Automation, Advanced Robotics and other Smart Factory initiatives. PLCs play an important role in manufacturing and act as a central processor for all real-time decisions. For instance, a PLC sends robust data, including sensor performance and other data that can be integrated with cloud computing to give a more holistic picture.
PLCs have adapted well to modern manufacturing and automation systems. With no competitor on the horizon and solid fundamentals, PLCs and PLC programmers will continue to play an integral role in the manufacturing process.
