The project our team has been tasked with is the development of a controls engineering training cart specifically for Siemens applications. This cart will function by training controls engineers who already have industry-standard experience with Allen-Bradley PLCs. The training cart incorporates common automation practices such as bin picking and barcode scanning, along with lab training documents designed to address specific challenges in Siemens PLC programming.

Siemens PLCs and components are becoming increasingly prevalent in the automation industry. Once predominantly a European brand, Siemens has gradually become a direct competitor to established U.S. brands such as Allen-Bradley. As a result, customers are now beginning to request Siemens PLCs and components for their projects.

This project aims to address a need at Mission Design & Automation, where most controls engineers are highly experienced with Allen-Bradley PLCs but have limited exposure to Siemens systems.

Deliver great experiences and solutions through a culture of innovation and teamwork.
