Electrical Engineers Rethink Workflows, Automation and COVID-19 Impact

Video of this podcast is available on our YouTube channel at https://youtu.be/DO9rTNyvkbs.

“Automation Chat” is hosted by Theresa Houck, Executive Editor of The Journal From Rockwell Automation and Our PartnerNetwork magazine. In this episode, I chat with Jeff Kilburn, Managing Director of the U.S. Business, and Thomas Michels, Global Director with EPLAN’s Cloud Business Software, with Rockwell Automation Encompass Product Partner EPLAN Software & Service.

We talk about how the COVID-19 pandemic has created a stronger need for electrical engineers to have remote capabilities; ways engineers have used these challenging times to rethink their work and workflows; and how to adapt to producing at a faster pace required by PPE needs and consumer product demands the pandemic has created. Also learn what to do when engineers are hesitant to work in the cloud for electrical design, and what to do if you don’t think you’re ready for a full set of automated processes.

And of course, get your family-friendly, silly Joke of the Day.
