ACC Automation 2020 Yearly Review - What's Next
Each year we like to take a few minutes and reflect on the past, current, and future of ACC Automation. The 2020 yearly review will show the direction of ACC Automation. You have helped us to build the site that you see today through questions, comments, and suggestions. Thank you. What a difference a year makes! Social distancing, mask-wearing, hygiene, social circles, etc are just a few of the terms we hear every day in this Covid-19 world. Video conferencing with Zoom, Teams, and Google Meet are the norm in business today. Information is knowledge, and everyone wants to be able to see, control, and summarize production data on a regular basis. Technologies are merging and communicating like never before. What was impossible is now possible for the industrial plant floor. We are looking forward to the New Year and new possibilities for implementing your control solution. More information can be obtained on our website. This includes all of the links mentioned in this video. https://accautomation.ca/acc-automation-2020-yearly-review/ Currently, we are in the process of the Automation Direct Productivity Open P1AM Arduino and Arduino Super Starter Kit. We will continue in the New Year with these Arduino controller units. 2021 will prove to be an exciting time. Here are some of the items that we have planned. Node-Red – flow-based development tool for visual programming developed originally by IBM for wiring together hardware devices, APIs, and online services as part of the (Industrial) Internet of Things. We will also continue by looking at the MQTT communication protocol used with the IIoT. More examples of Factory IO – 3D simulation of your process - This will be used in conjunction with the Productivity Suite Simulator. The simulator has been a great addition to the productivity line of programmable automation controllers (PACs). As always we will be answering your questions and applications so you can quickly implement your control solution. Once again we thank you for supporting this site. https://www.accautomation.ca
