Measurement for AutomationThe NI programmable automation controller (PAC) platform delivers 20 years of measurement experience from NI to industrial applications. PACs programmed with NI LabVIEW are ideal for adding high-speed, high-resolution measurements and advanced analysis to existing programmable logic controller (PLC) and automation systems. You can implement applications such as machine condition monitoring, thermal monitoring, and high-speed control in existing machines and production environments.
