Industrial Automation - It Doesn't Have To... Be Unfamiliar

Industrial Automation – It Doesn’t Have To…

Are you ready for some GOOD news?!? Unless you've had your head in the sand, you've heard of elliTek's new Automation Partner, so this company shouldn't be unfamiliar to you.
Over the past many months, we have been working closely with a fantastic company. It's a huge, behemoth company. It's the largest industrial manufacturing company globally and one in which elliTek is extremely privileged to partner.
This is the official announcement that elliTek is now an authorized distributor for Siemens Digital Industries and Controls products!
Our special guest is Ryan Wood. Ryan is the East Region Partner Sales Manager for Siemens.
We talk with Ryan about Siemens technology including what Digital Industries is and the products it encompasses.
Why did Siemens sign elliTek as a Digital Industries and Controls partner?
What impressed Brandon about Siemens? Hint, cybersecurity! They are way ahead of their competition when it comes to cybersecurity, and Ryan explains how.
We explore Siemens PLCs and the advancements made by Siemens TIA (Totally Integrated Automation) Portal. TIA is Integrated engineering software from the Enterprise to the field level with all devices programmed and communicating within the TIA engineering platform.
Stay tuned to hear what Siemens does that outpaces its competition!
