ABOUT THE WORKSHOP
EMPOWER ENERGY SYSTEMS (S.A.E) OFFERS THIS WORKSHOP IS PART OF A SERIES OF PRACTICAL INDUSTRIAL WORKSHOPS THAT ARE DESIGNED TO FILL IN THE MISSING LINKS IN THE MARKET.
THEY ARE DESIGNED TO HELP STUDENTS OVERCOME THE GAP FROM THEORY TO INDUSTRIAL PRACTICE, A GAP THAT IS ENCOUNTERED BY ALL FRESH GRADUATES. FURTHERMORE, SOMETIMES TECHNICIANS DESIRE TO INCREASE THEIR KNOWLEDGE OR IMPROVE THEIR SKILLS AND COULD NOT FIND THE RIGHT PLACE TO DO SO. ADDITIONALLY, ENGINEERS NEED TO LEARN INDUSTRIAL SKILLS CONSTANTLY AND DO NOT ALWAYS FIND THE RIGHT PLACE TO SEEK THE INFORMATION OR DO NOT FIND THE RIGHT INFORMATION.
EMPOWER ENERGY SYSTEMS (S.A.E) BRIDGES ALL OF THOSE GAPS THROUGH THE PROPOSED WORKSHOPS.
INDUSTRIAL AUTOMATION
INDUSTRIAL AUTOMATION IS THE DISCIPLINE OF EMPLOYING HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE TO CONTROL, MONITOR AND MANAGE MACHINES EFFICIENTLY AND REDUNDANTLY WITHOUT HUMAN INTERVENTION. IT ENSURES AN TIMELY, ACCURATE AND SAFE PROCESS WITH MINIMUM OPERATIONAL COSTS.
THERE ARE TWO MAJOR CATEGORIES OF AUTOMATION, NAMELY PROCESS AUTOMATION AND DISTRIBUTION AUTOMATION. PROCESS AUTOMATION IS INVOLVED IN CONTROLLING LOADS, MAINLY MACHINES WHILE DISTRIBUTION AUTOMATION IS MORE CONCERNED WITH THE ENERGY DISTRIBUTION DEVICES SUCH AS THE ELECTRICITY SOURCES AND THEIR APPARATUS.
EES MARKET PROMOTION
EMPOWER ENERGY SYSTEMS (EES) S.A.E BELIEVES IN TEAM BUILDING, MARKET PROMOTION AND WIN-WIN SITUATIONS. ACCORDINGLY, WE HELP ENGINEERING STUDENTS, ENGINEERS, AND TECHNICIANS ACQUIRE THE MISSING INDUSTRIAL LINKS AND EXPERIENCES AND AID THEM THROUGHOUT THEIR CAREERS THROUGHOUT OUR WORKSHOPS AND INDUSTRIAL-LEVEL TAILORED PROGRAMS.
WE TRANSFER THE PRACTICAL EXPERIENCE WE ACQUIRE FORM THE FIELD TO THE KEY MARKET PERSONS TO PROMOTE THE TECHNICAL KNOWLEDGE IN THE MARKET AND ACCELERATE IT’S GROWTH.
BENEFIT TO ELECTRONICS ENGINEERS
THE WORKSHOP IS MAINLY BASED UPON ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING PRINCIPLES, IN ITS CORE ESSENCE IT FOCUSES ON THE PRINCIPLES OF ELECTRONICS AND THE APPLICATION OF ELECTRONIC THEORIES IN THE FIELD OF AUTOMATION AND CONTROL OF INDUSTRIAL PROCESSES.
THE WORKSHOP IS ALSO INTEGRAL TO MECHANICAL AND PROCESS ENGINEERS DIRECTLY INVOLVED IN INDUSTRIAL PROCESSES.
