_ = Average
number of PLC techs per industry
_ = Average number of PLCs per industry Analysis: Its amazing to find out how many don't know exactly how many PLCs are in their facility. Injection Molding was the lowest in our survey. But with just about every Molding machine and extruder having some flavor of PLC in it, I suspect the numbers are a lot higher than surveyed. TIPS: 1. Take an inventory of all machines. 2. Insure you have manuals and preferably software on hand, for each brand. |
