You’ve always known Rockwell Automation to be known as a trusted source of control products and solutions. Typically, your mechanical engineering department had little involvement in these control system discussions, and machines were designed with handoffs between the different engineering groups. Design, build, and test seemed to work fine. Today, industries demand machines with higher throughput at lower costs while also demonstrating energy efficiency and higher reliability. This is only possible with a system-­‐wide, mechatronic approach – where cross-­‐functional data can be shared between the th controls, electrical and the mechanical engineers. Join us on March 29 to learn how from our motion experts.

Your automation system is only as good as the components that make it up. Let us show you how to correctly apply industrial components so that you can SUPPLY, PROTECT, COVERT and CONNECT to your critical assets. This seminar will take students through several application examples, detailing how you can; SUPPLY reliable and cost effective control power to your computers, networks, controllers, and I/O devices; PROTECT your production critical assets from power disturbances and electrical faults; CONVERT digital and analog signals and give you the ability to standardize your controller’s I/O while having the flexibility to adapt to a variety of signal types; and CONNECT field devices to your I/O cards with simple and secure terminations.
