Programmable logic controllers (PLCs) are one of the main components of any automated system. A typical control system has inputs, outputs, controllers (i.e., PLCs), and some type of human interaction with the system, a human machine interface (HMI), for example.
June 23, 2026 Physical AI — the convergence of artificial intelligence with robotics and autonomous motion systems — is reshaping how Canadian industries operate. Across sectors from healthcare to mining, AI-enabled machines are performing tasks that were once entirely dependent on human intervention. But deploying Physical AI effectively requires more than sophisticated algorithms: it demands… Read More…
June 22, 2026 Segment and Application In a municipality, wastewater treatment plants typically stand out as the main consumers of electricity. The operational processes exhibit significant load variations throughout a 24-hour cycle, necessitating the use of AC drives to regulate pumps, blowers, and other motorized equipment in response to fluctuating demand. In one wastewater treatment… Read More…
