Inflation isn’t just raising prices—it’s reshaping production schedules, sourcing decisions, and maintenance strategies. Factories that combine automation with real-time data are absorbing cost shocks, stabilizing output, and protecting margins. Below, we break down what works right now—on the line and across the supply chain—and how to start small without slowing...

 Performance and price usually headline PLC decisions, but the real differentiator shows up later—during maintenance. A controller that’s inexpensive to buy can become costly to keep if every fault...
Walk into almost any factory in the U.S., and you’ll likely see a surprising sight: production lines running on programmable logic controllers (PLCs) that are 15, 20, or even 30...
Reshoring isn’t a buzzword anymore—it’s a structural shift. Tariffs, fragile global supply chains, and new incentives are pushing U.S. manufacturers to bring work home. Automation makes that viable by lifting...
As we approach the winter slowdown in late September 2025, many factories are preparing for seasonal shutdowns—whether for holidays, maintenance, or reduced demand. These pauses are useful, but idle variable frequency...
 Two names dominate Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs): Allen-Bradley (Rockwell Automation) and Siemens. Both deliver scalable, durable controllers that run complex factories worldwide. The hard part isn’t whether they work—it’s which...

When a production line goes down, every second counts. Yet too many facilities treat spare parts as an afterthought—leading to costly delays, excessive overnight shipping fees, and production losses that...
Still running legacy drives like the Allen-Bradley 1336 or older Micromaster units? This step-by-step guide shows how to modernize proactively—reducing downtime risk, improving efficiency, and keeping costs under control. Step...
Choosing a variable frequency drive (VFD) or servo drive looks simple on paper: match voltage and horsepower, drop it in, and run. In the field, small oversights turn into nuisance...
On this solemn anniversary of September 11, 2001, Industrial Automation Co. takes a moment to reflect on the profound impact of that tragic day. We pause to honor the extraordinary...
 When your machine slows down, that energy doesn’t have to turn into heat. With regenerative drives, you can push it back to the line—or share it with other axes—and...
In the world of industrial automation, Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) are the backbone of control systems, executing logic to keep processes running smoothly. One critical metric often discussed is scan...
