Programmable Automation Controllers PAC ISBN 978-83-89529-35-0 K. Pietrusewicz, P. Dworak Nakom Publishing House, Poznań, 2007: The main goal of this book is to objectively present a new class of programmable control devices, so-called Programmable Automation Controllers (PAC). Their high-technology advantages and increasing industrial application volume pushed the authors to summarize the information about them. The book discusses the main aspects of automation (control system design, Human Machine Interface design, Motion Control systems) solved with the use of Programmable Automation Controllers. In the book there are two representatives of PAC controllers: B&R and GE Fanuc PACSystems discussed. In the book one can find the answer for the following questions:
"What is the difference between this new class of control systems and the classical PLCs, how to practically use them, what are the areas of utilization, how they faciliate our work, what are the main advantages offered for the users - about all those things and much more one can read in our book. Presented here information can help you during the selection of your control system. A lot of people asked about the future of industrial control systems point the Programmable Automation Controllers as a next generation of control systems - in our oppinion - the next step, already made..."
