The Department of Electronics & Telecommunication Engineering, Sharadchandra Pawar College of Engineering, Savitribai Phule Pune University, Pune. Organized “four day Workshop on PLC & SCADA during 23/03/2016 TO 26/3/2016.

The main objective of this WORKSHOP was to make the aspiring engineers acquainted with the conceptual as well as practical knowledge of the Industrial Automation & latest technologies being used to achieve industrial automation.

The idea of organizing this workshop was to teach the basic fundamentals of automation in the students and provide them with a platform to work on, In The Near Future. The Most Used Guiding Force Behind an Automated Industrial Plant Is A “Programmable Logic Controller” Generally Known As A PLC. PLCs Along With Certain Other Necessary Ingredients Like Sensors, Motors, Actuators, Valves, Conveyors, Boilers, SCADA Systems, Computers & Many More, Makes A Real Automated Manufacturing Plant.

All the faculty and staff members actively participated in the event to make it a grand success.
