Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) and Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems are both crucial in industrial automation but serve different roles. PLCs are used for direct control of machines and processes, operating in real-time, while SCADA systems manage data collection, monitoring, and high-level control across multiple operations. Recognizing the differences between these technologies is vital for enhancing automation and system performance.
