Industrial Automation Projects with Raspberry Pi: Build Real-World Industrial Control System for Manufacturing, Process Automation, SCADA, Building Automation, Energy Monitoring, and Smart Factories - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

Turn industrial automation concepts into practical, connected systems.

Discover how to design, build, integrate, and maintain Raspberry Pi-based industrial automation projects for manufacturing, process control, smart buildings, energy management, and modern factories.

Industrial automation is evolving through connected devices, intelligent monitoring, data-driven operations, and Industry 4.0 technologies. Raspberry Pi offers a flexible platform for developing industrial monitoring applications, edge computing solutions, communication gateways, and automation prototypes. When combined with suitable industrial interfaces, sensors, actuators, and carefully designed software, it can help engineers explore practical solutions to real operational challenges.

Industrial automation requires more than working code. It demands sound engineering decisions, reliable communication, careful hardware selection, risk assessment, thorough testing, and attention to safety. This book emphasizes system architecture, industrial interfaces, commissioning, troubleshooting, documentation, and lifecycle management. It also addresses the limitations of Raspberry Pi and the importance of appropriate industrial equipment and independent safety systems where required.

Industrial Automation Projects with Raspberry Pi is a practical guide for readers who want to apply embedded computing and Python programming to real-world industrial applications. Progress from project planning and hardware selection to process automation, machine monitoring, SCADA integration, industrial networking, energy analysis, and Industrial IoT.

Explore applications involving environmental sensors, HVAC monitoring, smart lighting, tank-level measurement, pump control, flow and pressure monitoring, conveyor systems, production counting, and equipment condition monitoring. Learn how Modbus, MQTT, and OPC UA can connect industrial devices and supervisory systems, while dashboards and data logging help make operational information easier to understand.
