Industrial automation's main aim is to reduce the necessity of people in manufacturing processes. This allows production to speed up, increase in safety, and better utilize their resources and industrial analytics in manufacturing. Achieving this goal is accomplished by fully mapping out the industrial process and understanding sub-process relationships so machines can be assigned to work and automate certain process tasks. PLC and DCS are the two automation approaches used for the purpose of controlling processes or machines. Technologically after advancements, the two are not much different nowadays, however, this does not mean that these are not dissimilar. The significant difference between PLC and DCS is that a PLC is a central controller designed with the aim to control processes or machines.
