Control Engineering’s top 5 pieces of content over the past week include includes TSN, HMIs, and system integration.

1. How to use TSN to improve machine design performance, precision

An original equipment manufacturer (OEM) that specializes in pad printing and hot stamping machines used time-sensitive networking (TSN) to improve overall performance, accuracy and precision for its motion control applications. See video.

2. Improving efficiency through automation with SCADA

A steel pipe maker implements supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA), manufacturing execution (MES) and statistical process control (SPC) at their facility to improve operations.

3. What makes an HMI excel on the plant floor

A human-machine interface (HMI) can offer engineers different benefits depending on the industry and setting it’s being used in.

4. How to protect and safeguard critical OT infrastructure

Operational technology (OT) is at greater risk from cybersecurity attacks than ever and it requires a good, holistic plan that keeps workers educated and vigilant.

5. The worth system integrators bring to industrial automation

A supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) system upgrade at water authority addressed challenges.
