Control Engineering anniversary insights

  • Control Engineering celebrates its 70th anniversary by providing subscribers with more information, Automated Warehouse and Packaging OEM supplements, along with links to other engineering information that could help.
  • WTWH Media resources of interest to those interested in automation may include 3D computer-aided design (CAD), digital manufacturing, engineering design, electronics engineering, fluid power and research and development.
  • Link to instructions on how to contribute articles or other resources to the Control Engineering community.

Happy anniversary, Control Engineering, providing 70 years of information about automation, controls and instrumentation as of September 2024. Thank you to all who have contributed knowledge along the way, and those continue to do so in many formats: Online, digital edition, printed edition (U.S. and Control Engineering international), supplements, webcasts, eBooks, newsletters, videos, podcasts, events and social media. This edition introduces two topical WTWH Media supplements to Control Engineering subscribers, Automated Warehouse on Page 37 and Packaging OEM on page 53.

Since September 1954, Control Engineering has helped those who design, implement, integrate, maintain and manage control, automation and instrumentation systems, components and equipment, and, in 2024, adds related resources through WTWH Media. Courtesy: WTWH Media
