Today, I will try to teach you about the Automation Pyramid. More specifically, the devices used to make up the automation pyramid.
So what exactly is the automation pyramid? It is a pictorial example of the different levels of automation in a factory or industry.
It also serves as a visual example of how technology is being integrated into industry. So let’s take a closer look and try to break the pyramid down.

Very best automation summary
Glad to hear that, Montes! Thank you!
realpars: makes sure automation students passes their exames. great for a quick recap of the different lectures throughout the semester. specially in these corona times.... only theory no practical trial and error... thanks!
That is amazing to hear! Keep up the learning curve - great that we can play a role in that!
@@realpars well i passed. not in a pretty way. but passed. :) it's hard when you are a practical learner and work with aduino and 3D printers in the spare time. but forced to work with expensive Siemens equipment. and Corona didn't help. because that kept us away from our hardware....
doing marine engineering at SIMAC known for primary Maersk students, officers and marine engineers.
I love your videos. Great Job.
Great to hear that, Mohammed!

I'm recent graduate from the control and automation engineering. However I need to learn more and more tasks and your videos are helping me lots of. Thanks for your collaboration. I'm from México City so, at the same time that I reforce my knowledges I practice the English language
Thanks a lot for your support, Ericka!
What program did you use to make this video? It looks great.
Thank you very much! Glad to hear that. Regarding your question, I am actually not sure about that as our video lessons are created by our Graphic and Animation department.
Very useful video 👌
Glad you liked it, Akash!
Bottom 3 levels are all what I like!
Thanks very good
You're very welcome!
Please, make a video about Automation Roadmap (What is? Purpose? How to do? etc). I´m thanking you in advance!
Thanks for your comment and topic suggestion, I will happily go ahead and forward this to our course developers as a topic suggestion.
Happy learning!
Great video! Can we combine the first two levels in the SCADA level?
Thanks for the feedback! Well, you can think of the first two levels as the subset of the SACADA.
Thanks for the video.. so you mean we can integrate the 1st and 2nd level also in scada.. But ERP systems usually have lot of verticals like finance etc.. could you please elaborate on this
Thank you
You're very welcome!
very informative
Thanks a lot!
thank you so much
You're very welcome!
good video sir , keep on going.......
Thanks a lot!
Hi. Excellent video. Question; Can we take Power BI as one the examples for the Planning Level?
Power BI is a tool that certainly can be used for planning. as well as o0ther data-centric analyses. You will also need to collect the data that is analyzed by Power BI to have a complete Planning level application.
According to the pyramid...Where can I put an DCS (distribuited control system), at the same level of SCADA in the pyramid? What's the main difference between DCS and SCADA?
I would recommand to view at the website ResearchGate, there is a comparision between this both...
To keep it short, SCADA is event driven and data oriented. Its used to monitor and control a whole process.
DCS is more a local control. Its process oriented and state driven. Its controls a concrete process part.
So I would say, DCS is more in Layer 2 - Control Level in use and not at the same level as a SCADA.

I love your videos. Great Job.
Do you know what are the "telegrams" in the MES System?
The MES Terminals are sending the "telegrams" to the Server?
What is a telegram?
Hi there, thanks for your compliment and happy to hear that.
The software systems that run at the level 3 are called Manufacturing Execution Systems or MES. This software communicates with all Level 2 systems at all times through bi-directional telegrams. The term "bidirectional telegram" here means communicating through sending and receiving messages. The type of communication depends on the design of the network structure.
We can say level 4 communicates with Level 3 through bi-directional telegrams as well.
thank you
You're very welcome!
I thought PID stood for piping and instrumentation diagram. It’s ok now as I went back over your videos and found that is P&ID. Very confused for beginners. Starting an Automation and Robotics engineering course next week and these videos have given me a great confidence boost. Thanks
Thanks for your comment and sharing your feedback with us, Stephen! We always appreciate that. Great to hear that it gave you a confidence boost!
If you have any questions or concerns along the way, feel free to reach out.
Happy learning!
really professional
Thanks a lot!
Very good.
Thank you!
Thank you very much for yiyr valuable vidios.
Is there pissible to get one vidii to summarize the avilable protocols use in industry.. Actually i confuse.
Also is there possible to get vidio regarding Modbus TCP / IP... How can connect different protocols into one pc...
Thank you in advance for yiur fast reply..

Hi Osama,
Thanks for your comment and support! I will definitely go ahead and forward your topic suggestions to our creator team. Thanks for sharing.
Happy learning!
The most important topic is automatically collect data and teach employee how to work effeciently. In last years we found out missing competencies so it is very useful to improve employees skills into the level which will be finally integrated and maintained by them.
It would have been nice to have some examples of softwares that are ERP and MES.
Thanks for the suggestion and feedback! I will happily pass this on to our course developers.
Happy learning!
best video there is
Thank you!
the best.
make a video on Field Level Devices
JOHN ALAM. Yes!
Please give more examples of PID then only if cruise control.
Hey Zulfiqar!
Thanks for your comment and your suggestion. I will pass this on to our course developers!
Thanks for sharing and happy learning!
You’re killing me with “SKAH-DUH” but otherwise great content 😊
Perfect explanation, best videos for instrumentation.. need videos that explain measurements and data sheet reading
Hi Rania!
Thanks for your comment and your suggestion. I will pass this on to our course developers!
Thanks for sharing and happy learning!
Accurate informative video. Exactly how it is at my previous employer.
Happy to hear that!
wow nice
Thank you!
What level will you place CPIMS, PI servers e.g Honeywell PHD ?
These historian applications are part of the Supervisory level, and the data stored is used extensively at the Superviory Level to monitor trends and at the Planning Level (MES) to determine inventories, product production schedules, and raw material usage, to name a few.
tkanks you
You are very welcome!
We need a video from RealPars explaining MQTT and Sparkplug B on a simple form just like they do it with everything..
Thanks for your topic suggestion, Milton! I will happily pass it on to our course developers.
Good jod...👍
Thank you!
1 MES can control multiple SCADA in a plant, right?
Thank you for your question, and our apologies for the delay in our response - your comment must have slipped through the cracks.
Absolutely, the answer is a resounding "YES" on both counts. To further enhance your knowledge, here's a link that offers additional learning resources: www.controleng.com/articles/benefits-of-integrating-a-mes-system-with-scada/
Additionally, consider leveraging your RealPars membership for an efficient and accelerated learning experience. Feel free to have a look over at www.realpars.com
does anybody have a good source for a book or paper about the automation pyramid?
google ISA 95
I am waiting for your new video
👍
Its a good video, the only thing I am missing is the new trend to remove the borders between the levels with industry 4.0. At this moment this view is correct, but in near future, even the MES or ERP can access direct the field level (for example via OPC UA).
Hi there, happy to hear that! Thank you. That is a great suggestion, I will pass this through to our creator team. Thanks a lot!
❤
Dear admin I need a video about open loop and closed loop control please do the needfull😁😁😀😎
Hey!
Thanks for your comment and your suggestion. I will pass this on to our course developers!
Thanks for sharing and happy learning!
