The Best Automation Basics Crash Course!
Never implemented automation before? New grad, new job, new expectations? No technical experience? No Problem! In this course for beginners, we will cover how a machine works, the basics of automation electrical & fluid power systems. As we dive into some of the most common technologies available in the market, we will discuss how the technologies work and why to pick one technology vs the other.

Automate, Integrate, and Facilitate
Many times, shop flow is fractured as businesses grow reacting to market trends and manufacturing levels. The idea of integrating processes and automating routing of materials; raw stock to finished parts costs a company multiple times more as an afterthought. This paper will discuss the smarter/brighter side of integrating the process flow of automation to facilitate higher margins as a plan, because a goal without a plan is just an idea.
