Abstract

 Automation has become a prime contributor when productivity of an Industry is concerned. This paper tells
about the Programmable Logic Controllers and their applications in Industries to reduce the wastage of resources. In
this paper the perspective of small and medium scale industries about incorporating new technologies to their industrial
processes is discussed. What they think of technology is extra burden that requires more handling which they cannot
afford. What they are not aware is that most of it includes a onetime cost only. Further, the paper discusses the technical
as well as financial aspects of the PLC technology. A Case study is provided to support the importance of Automation
and PLC in any Industry.
