Man I just found your Chanel here and I’m definitely going to increase my knowledge in Robotics if you teach it anyway I am DCS and Scada programmer now I have to get into industrial robotics so I think I can use some tips from you… thanks in advance sir ❤🙏🏽
Welcome aboard! Looking forward to sharing some more insightful content with all the lovely people out here.
I used Inventor, Solidworks, Ansys, NX cad, CNC fanuc control denford etc.,
Very nice!
My goal is to become a Controls Engineer and I also want to dabble with robotics because it seems interesting. To give you a background: I have a AAS in Electrical Technology (Controls and Automation) and I have been a Controls Builder for five years and have tried advancing, but the companies I have been working for are giving me empty promises. I do have collegiate experience with PLCs for AB and Siemens Software, we learned briefly everything you can think of involving them. Also I have learned basic electrical mathematics (Engineering), that being calculating parallel-series circuits and their Capacitance and Inductance for an example. What do you suggest I do to advance in my career?
I am looking forward to making more money and living comfortably.
Shift to another position might be the easiest and best solution.
Sometimes it feels like a hard shift but if your not getting anywhere it has to be done. I would assume if you can demonstrate your capabilities you should be able to get a position.
I would add basic computer networking and protocols (Modbus TCP, Profibis, Ethernet CIP, etc).
OPC principles (eg Kepware).
If you plan to work in the pharma industry, GxP. Specifically GAMP.
Ya those are definitely good ones. And especially if you want to become a programmer.
Thanks for share you knowledge.
No problem. Any thing I can do to help!
Interesting. Thank you for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Hi I’m a fan from Taiwan also in IPC industry. Will you attend the Automate show in Chicago in May as well? Great videos 🙌🏻
Awesome. I'm glad you enjoy the content. I'm planning to be there at automate. You going?
Am currently on entry level PLCs and SCADAs, hearing robots are easier than PLCs sounds yummy
Thanks for the video bro. I’ve a question? I just take over a position at work. I’m the new automation specialists . I was wondering if there’s any course related to the automation that I could take to develop my skills. Any advice? Thanks in advance
Ya absolutely. Tim Wilborne has training, Solic PLC, RealPars those are all good sources
Great to see you....Iam also a Mechanical engineer....worked with govt of india as a Research engineer and want to start my own company.....Can you pls suggest a better Factory automation software??Rockwell automation factory talk or Delmia??also if you know more softwares pls let me know...thanks...
Rockwell is definitely the winner in the US, Siemens in other places. But India has less of these two. They generally go for lower budget items
I would like to hear about what kind of formats the robots work with, if that is possible.
Formats Meaning? Types of applications, PLCs they interface with, etc?
Hi "By 'formats,' I'm referring to the file types or data formats that are commonly used for offsite automation processes. These formats dictate how information is structured and exchanged between different software systems or components involved in the automation workflow. I am curious to know the formats specific to certain applications or equipment in order to automate manufacturing.@@EliteAutomation . Many thanks
Thanks for the video :) Inventor has the fusion version, which is free and allows for 10 active drawings at a time. :)
Very good mention. A few of the people on my team use fusion and then convert to inventor to do the final drawings. Fusion is super user friendly in comparison.
Sir are CAD skills usable in Industrial Automation??Plz reply 🙏
Absolutely. Most things are a custom design that is created in a CAD software.
Can you go over a more overarching principles based video. Im self taught, but im struggling to have the confidence in using my coding knowledge to implement esp32 based relays into my manufacturing buisness. Im planning on finding free/cheap alternators and utilizing my lease agreement that includes free eletrical. 😂😅. I feel writing this comment i already can do it, but everything you mentioned was new too me, can you please help bridge the gap. I apreciate the reality check 😂🎉
I don't know too much about esp32. We do have some general videos. What specific are looking for or generally
I'm looking to build automated systems from scratch, and I'd greatly appreciate your help with this endeavor. An ESP32 developer board is essentially an affordable Wi-Fi and Bluetooth-capable computer that you can easily connect components to, making it a great choice for creating automated solutions. These boards are only $5 each.
My idea is to combine these small 5V devices with relays and larger components to construct a complete automated production line. While I'm aware that building a Wi-Fi-enabled line with features like an automated concrete mixer and hopper will require more time and effort, I believe it will ultimately save me a significant amount of time and effort in my business.
I admit I'm a bit apprehensive about taking the step toward automating various aspects of my business since it's my livelihood, and I'm not a wealthy individual. Moreover, the line is always operating, and making edits to it as "the grandson" in the family company is a huge social and professional risk for me. However, I see the potential benefits in terms of efficiency and productivity. Any guidance or advice on how to get started with this project would be invaluable to me. Thank you for your support!
Hi,
In your opinion, what is the impact of artificial intelligence on our work + or - ?
Thank you
I recorded 3 videos on the topic! Stay tuned. It may take them a few weeks to get out. Editing team has a pretty big back log.
Does automation engineering cover both robotics and PLCs?
Majority of courses will cover both but it depends on the college and the particular degree. For example food processing automation doesn't generally include robotics. So some schools may have the program tailored towards something like food process automation.
Any recommendations for Computer Science majors moving into automation?
Anything that involves computer programming. Or maybe networking
hello
how can I learn all about sensors like calibration.........
To calibrate sensors or....?
As electrical engineer i finished since 2005 my master i like Scada programming and Aitomation what's free programme or center institute do u suggest for me as pratical Training.thank you
Alot of community colleges offer courses in the exact discipline. You may have better luck with an online course. SolisPLC has one. Tim Wileborn has one. They also have some free stuff on YT.
I work in the oil and gas industry... I deal with Istruments, but I want to get into automation what course would it be the best or the easiest to learn? Any tips or recommendations will be greatly appreciated!!!
If you are already doing programming then the transition should be easy. Programming seems like an easy entry point.
@EliteAutomation I don't program but I want to learn programming and Automation what would you recommend what software to get familiarize?
Sir i am installing fanuc cnc system at one of the OEM INDUSTRY in India but want to go out for more anyway to work for u in India plz let me know sir.
We really don't do cncs we primarily do robotics and automation
Which is the High paying countries for automation engineers
That’s a good question. I would assume it’s probably the country with the highest wages in general.

ETO ERP software for Industrial Automation?
Honestly can't advise. We don't really get into that side of things internally.
In industrial automation which one is better python or c/c++
Python is more used.
Thx love it!
Thank you!
What about TIA V17 ?
That’s Siemens
Good Point!
I just graduated in industrial production engineering and do not know where to start
Time to get to work my man! If you have time be selective and apply for all the positions you would like to have.
I think Gazebo and Webots are best.
Think so?
How I get connected with you?
Hi there! You can reach out at:
LinkedIn: @malachigreb
Email: malachi@eliteautomationusa.com
probaby could save money using a VM for the trial
Ya that's definitely a work around. We just can't advise it lol
Networking
Definitely a good one.
should i learn python?
Python is definitely an up and coming language in automation. UR robot back end is Python.
Was looking for this very question! I just started learning Python today
Python is the main language for creating SCADA’s in Ignition. So I would definitely recommend it.
@@deviousengineer8398 I am learning ignition and python as well, I’m going to attempt to learn both by using inductive university for ignition and python throigh W3 school. Do you have any other suggestions?
@@deviousengineer8398what about C++ ?
