April 22-23,, 2008 - Rockwell's Complete Automation on the Move (CAOTM) in Gwinnett County, Georgia. Brent Stromwall, V.P. Business Development and Adam Almas, Senior Electric Engineer will co-present from 9:30 to 10:20 AM on both days. They will be speaking on "Improving Control System Improvement and Startup using simulation on both days. They will also demonstrate how PolySim models are used to test and optimize control system programming. Code for PLCs, HMIs, and your information System can be fully tested and validate.
PolySim is a suite of modeling and simulation tools that allow us to predict outomes and create effective designs. We make estimates of line operating efficiency, identify design "pinch points" and evaluate the performance of new or existing lines.
Our team is looking forward to welcome you to Gwinnett County
