On this Careers Podcast we look deeper into the role of Controls Engineer at Kasa Controls, hearing from Justin Ryan, Engineering Training Manager, on what makes the position an essential piece of the Kasa puzzle.

The position, based out of Salina, Kansas, is tasked with providing detailed industrial control system drawings, including electrical schematics, power circuit sizings and loadings, thermal calculations, and more. Additionally, the engineer would have to travel to the installation site to make sure that the automation hardware is correctly installed and ready for the client to use, so the job does provide a wonderful travel opportunity both within the United States and abroad.

With Kasa Controls, the intrigue comes from not only the projects but the people. With top clients like General Motors and Chrysler, servicing industries from automotive to agricultural, Ryan says the thrill of seeing automation work through to the end is what makes every day on the job a fresh experience. But even beyond that, what keeps people at Kasa Controls is the culture. Like the company so neatly puts it: When you work at Kasa, you know each other, you know each others’ families, you know each others’ kids. It’s a community.

For more information about working for Kasa and how they make the employee experience second to none, what the coolest part of the job is, the potential impact on the company, and why being a controls engineer is kind of like being MacGyver, give this podcast a listen. To apply, click here.

MarketsandMarkets sees cloud MES leading by 2032

MarketsandMarkets sees cloud MES leading by 2032

Manufacturers are adopting MES for real-time monitoring, traceability and quality management, while forecasts differ on market size. MarketsandMarkets expects cloud to hold the largest deployment share by 2032 and outlines where hybrid matters most. The article also highlights six integration practices plants tend to overlook and what budget owners should scope beyond licenses.

  • 01The harder part of linking MES to PLCs, SCADA and DCS is a shared data model and clear ownership of control logic. Connectivity is the easier part, and plants that skip the modeling end up building translation layers.

ORAFOL halved lens inspection time using Zebra AI machine vision

ORAFOL halved lens inspection time using Zebra AI machine vision

ORAFOL Fresnel Optics automated Fresnel-lens inspection with Zebra AI machine vision, and Zebra reports inspection time fell by half. Zebra says Aurora works with any camera and that a standard camera was sufficient, while the bespoke work was an optical turret for the microstructures.

  • 01Zebra says Aurora works with any camera and that a standard camera was sufficient; the bespoke work was a custom optical turret for the microstructures.
  • 02Writing tolerances into the inspection system turns accept-or-reject into a fixed rule. That rule drives the consistency gain, which matters as much as the speed.
  • 03The sharper scoping question for small, finely structured parts is who designs the fixture and lighting, and how that is priced separately from software and camera hardware.

The company is building a Cloud Remote Device Management platform so it sells managed devices along with the hardware. That puts a fleet console on the buyer's checklist.

  • 01One booking panel outside a conference room is a gadget; every panel, door reader and sign across a building is a fleet, and Qbic wants to be the one watching it.
