How crucial the summer training is, in the life of an engineering college student?

Dear Engineering students,

We, Sofcon India Pvt. Ltd. has always played a role of mentor for the students who want to make a career in the core engineering specifically in the domain of Automation, whether applicable to Industry, Factory, Building or Home.

It is vital that any student should think twice before selecting the technology and organization where they like to spend their summer to learn new skills or else it will be a waste of money and more importantly time.

Sofcon will provide a certificate to the engineering students mentioning NSDC on it as we are the affiliated training partner of NSDC since 2014 and executing many government projects of NSDC.

Sofcon India tries to bridge the gap in the area of skilled training. The available technologies are:

1.      Industrial Automation

2.      Building Automation

3.      Embedded System

4.      VLSI

5.      Pneumatic and Hydraulic System

6.      Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning: Designing and Drafting

7.      Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning: Control

8.      Solar Technology

9.      Internet of Things

10.  Access Control System

11.  CCTV/Surveillance System

12.  Fire Detection and Alarm System

13.  Design Courses of Mechanical and Civil Engineers like Auto CAD 2D, 3D, STADD PRO, Revit etc

Sofcon India avers to help the student in making their final year B.Tech project on the basis of what they have learned here in their summer training.

Global Industrial Automation Control & factory Automation Market

As people are moving away from traditional systems towards integrated networks, global industrial control and factory automation market has been witnessing growth. Global Industrial Automation Control & factory Automation Market by 2021 is expected to reach 257 billion USD.  Integrated networks include both hardware as well as software consisting of PLC SCADA, Variable Frequency Drives, Instrumentation, Motion & robotics systems, DCS Systems, industrial networks etc.  Currently Global Industrial Automation Control & factory Automation Market size in 2016 is approximately 200 Billion USD and is witnessing 12.6% year on year growth. The increasing trend is penetrating across society and global economy. All types of process & manufacturing industries, aerospace, defense, transportation, Electrical, electronics, food & Beverages, Oil & Gas, Pharmaceuticals, Chemicals and water management are all focusing towards complete automation.

Nuclear power plants and control & Automation, Surveillance and Communication

Nuclear power plants deploy cutting edge advanced instrumentation and advanced automation control systems for regular operations, special inspections and maintenance activities. Most advanced surveillance and communication systems are deployed to ensure safety and security of sensitive nuclear installations. The centralized control room in nuclear power plant is vital location housing highly sophisticated state of art display panels, operating consoles, plant lay outs, SCADA Consoles, video coverage of critical locations and plant emergency communication systems.

As part of security and surveillance requirements inside the plant areas, access control systems are installed to prevent unauthorized entry. Entire plant is provided with graded security monitoring and access control systems. 

Job opportunities in the area of automation instrumentation surveillance and communication

The existing and future nuclear power plants provide enormous job opportunities especially in the areas of Instrumentation, automation, surveillance and communication sectors. These systems deployed in plants are acquired from suppliers on engineering, procurement, construction, commissioning basis package contracts. Thus skilled automation person will have job opportunities at different stages starting at the manufacturing, assembling, testing stage at suppliers location, at the site while erection of the equipment, calibration and commissioning activities and later on in support system for operation and maintenance.

Due to strict regulations & safety instructions, there is a periodic replacement of equipments takes place. There is a sustained enormous employment opportunity for Industrial Automation, surveillance & communication trained engineers.

Market for IAE Expected to Show Strong Growth

The market for industrial automation equipment is expected to show strong growth in 2014, with global revenue reaching $185.3 billion.

So says a recent report from information and analytics source IHS Technology.

The $185.3 billion represents a 7% increase over the $173 billion racked up in 2013. This year marks the return of more vigorous activity after the industry managed only middling revenue increases of 1.2% in 2012 and 3.4% in 2013. Prior to those two years, expansion had been in the double digits in a heartening show of force after the recession. Healthy expansion is set to continue after this year, says IHS, with industry revenue forecast to hit $225 billion by 2017.

Motors and motor controls will be the largest segment in 2014, accounting for 40% of total industrial automation equipment revenue. Automation equipment is next with 31%, followed by power-transmission equipment with 29%.

The automation equipment sector will be affected substantially this year by technological innovation, says IHS. Specifically, demand for more communication and more sophisticated machine control will drive technical advancements, especially in the discrete controller markets. Controllers overall are at the hightest risk of cybersecurity attacks, and this will prompt product development seeking solutions to forestall or prevent unauthorized incursions altogether.

Three distinct market developments will help the industrial automation equipment market continue to grow in the future. First, manufacturing will be transformed from a productivity-driven process to one that is controlled by digital information; IHS refers to this trend as "convergence." Second, 3-D printing could also represent another turning point, offering possibilities likely to alter the manufacturing landscape in sweeping ways. And third, the combination of an aging workforce of skilled engineers along with low rates of replacement will pose a significant concern for manufacturers, particularly in the West. Increasing levels of automation and semiautonomous robots will ultimately drive a transition to more and more automation.
