PMMI Media Group’s Automation World magazine announced the First Team category leaders in the 2017 Leadership in Automation Program on January 11, 2018. Automation World, a leading business magazine serving automation professionals, launched this community-based program in January 2017.
Over the course of last year, automation professionals were invited to vote for their favorite automation vendors in unaided-recall surveys, not multiple choice.
Over two dozen categories were featured, representing the wide variety of automation technologies, products and software in use by today’s manufacturing professionals across the discrete, batch and continuous process manufacturing industries.
