Industrial Automation
Basic Industrial AutomationCourse type
Other Industrial AutomationIntroduction
With this course module the course participant gets an overview of the most important components and their functions within the automation technology. Based on practical examples, these are explained. The following questions are addressed: What is a PLC? What is an HMI, switchboard? What is meant by the SCADA system? Profibus and Profinet? Industrial networks? Inverter? Servo technology? What is robotics suitable for and what is behind SIL 1, 2, 3 and 4?Target group
Who is interested in industrial automation, for example: buyer, sales representative, project manager, process and system designer, production manager or project manager.Foreknowledge

-
Sekisui AlveoRead moreFoam producer Sekisui Alveo has a large factory in Roermond. To support production and maintenance, warehouses and distribution points with thousands of different items are spread across the various halls. Think spare parts, personal protection equipment and consumables. The company cooperates intensively with itsme for management, such as recently with the step-by-step introduction of vendor managed inventory (VMI) for the grab stock of mechanical items.
-
IECRead moreTo control the expansion of a silo park, engineering & construction company IEC called on Breemes. Being involved in the engineering from the beginning, the electrical service provider was able to make smart proposals for both the low-voltage part and the PLC control. ‘We have always been able to find each other well and when changes occurred, we were quickly on the same page with Breemes.’
-
Heliox - Charged for DeliveryRead moreHeliox, a developer and manufacturer of charging systems for electric buses and trucks, was already working with itsme when production still took place in the Netherlands. Today, production has shifted to Slovakia, Portugal, and Moldova, and is also happening in the US. itsme remains the “irreplaceable” partner for the supply of electrical components and cable harnesses.
-
BLOK System SupplyRead moreBlok System Supply and itsme have maintained an intensive relationship for many years. Early last year, this was further deepened with electronic data exchange via the Smart Connected Supplier Network. ‘It saves an enormous amount of time and reduces errors. We always have real-time information automatically.’ However, time for personal contact is not saved. ‘That is precisely what makes itsme a very nice party to work with.’

Schneider Electric - Schneider Electric – Harmony Tower LightsRead moreThe comprehensive Harmony signaling range from Schneider Electric includes a variety of beacons, tower lights, and multi-tone sounders. These signaling devices feature status indication, voice guidance, and configurable light and sound patterns to provide timely alerts for faults and abnormal conditions. They are known for easy installation, low maintenance, and high protection rating.
-
nVent ERIFLEX - Advanced technologyRead morenVent ERIFLEX provides solutions for optimizing the design of electrical connections and grounding applications in low-voltage environments for OEMs, panel builders, and related industries. You can choose from standard connections made with copper braid or copper laminates, but made-to-order (MTO) customization is certainly also possible.
