Canadian manufacturers have been exploring opportunities to shorten time to market, improve machine performance, and uptime. This includes implementing advanced automation solutions to develop robust automation software that minimizes development and startup timelines while reducing hardware costs.

In this webinar, Andy Burleigh from Beckhoff Canada and special guest Brent Lekx-Toniolo from Sodecia GTAC presents the following educational topics about how to build your automation advantage with software driven design:

• Reducing hardware components and costs by streamlining communication into a centralized architecture
• Optimizing development and testing time by implementing modular, re-usable code, and extensible PLC software
• How Sodecia GTAC increased time to market and throughput when standardizing on software driven automation
