The Evolution of the Programmable Automation Controller: Guest Podcast from Control Intelligence

** Named Best Podcast 3 Consecutive Years! 2022-2024 Apex Awards of Publication Excellence.

In this episode, we’re doing something a little different. Occasionally, we like to share a guest episode from another great podcast. This episode is from our sister publication Control magazine and its podcast called, “Control Intelligence.” Control magazine’s Editor in Chief Mike Bacidore explains the difference between programmable logic controllers and programmable automation controllers, and how PACs evolved from PLCs.

“Control Intelligence” is hosted by Control editors, led by Editor in Chief Mike Bacidore, and provides in-depth discussions with industry experts about important topics in the process control and automation field. They explore underlying issues affecting users, system integrators, suppliers and others.
