  1. INSTRUMENTATION @sageautomation

  2. What is instrumentation? Automation is the driving force behind modern manufacturing and testing. Processing and manufacturing times are drastically cut, reducing overhead and increasing ROI. Instrument is defined as tool for execution. Imagine your body as an automated system, then your muscles are executing devices (output) while your senses are input. Instrumentation is the eyes and ears of the industry ➔ ➔ ➔

  3. What are the benefits? Industrial automation instrumentation provides a range of benefits, including: Improve workplace safety by protecting workers from hazardous machine motion Reduce labor costs by automating manual processes Achieve better traceability with sensors and computer-based tracking Optimize processes by providing wireless communication throughout your factory Decrease part cycle times through more efficient operation Use predictive analytics to prevent defects and improve process efficiency ● ● ● ● ● ●

  4. Now, for the sensors: Controllers and data acquisition: Data acquisition stations and controllers gather and digitize measurement signals for control and/or storage and analysis. This process collects data for monitoring and analyzing testing and manufacturing processes. The visualization of data enables easier analysis and allows you to monitor multiple stations across multiple areas of a facility. ➔ ➔ ➔

  5. Encoders: Rotary, incremental, and absolute encoders monitor the position of a shaft and convert the data into an analog or digital signal to measure changes in position, speed, or linear distance. Options include optical encoders for high resolution and operating speed and magnetic encoders for dusty and dirty working environments. Human machine interface (HMI): Industrial HMI touch panels provide a textual or graphical interface between industrial automation systems and users. They can display data, graphics, and animation to provide control and monitoring of automation systems. Industrial computing: Controls and automation instrumentation require software, HMIs, ethernet switches, data stations, and other equipment to provide communication between different devices and users. Machine safety: Facilities that utilize industrial automation are required to adhere to guidelines aimed at preventing workplace injuries and related economic consequences such as equipment downtime and fines related to non-compliance.

  6. To conclude: “Instrumentation plays an important role in gathering information from the field and in changing the field parameters. It is an interdisciplinary branch heading towards Intelligent sensors, smart transducers, MEMS technology and bluetooth technology”
