With more than 18 years experience manufacturing industrial automation and computer-based products, Advantech's Industrial Automation Group (IAG) has been consistently providing the most comprehensive industrial automation solutions, encompassing both hardware and software technologies. The major driving forces behind this growth have been Advantech's focus on R&D and manufacturing as well as providing the best possible support to our customers.

The Trend We Believe
Web technologies will dominate industrial factory floors just like it did in offices and homes. The Ethernet will become the most popular standard of industrial field bus.

  Many front-end devices will be equipped with embedded CPUs and web browser functionality. Advantech IAG has identified the future of industrial automation and is evolving its business practices to proactively match these trends. In the rapidly changing Internet era, Advantech's Industrial Automation Group has established the goal of providing web-enabled automation solutions to the factory floor with the aim of establishing Advantech as the world's leading provider of eAutomation products. Advantech's Industrial Automation Group has established 20 branch offices and over 60 marketing channel company alliances, along with numerous technical support centers in countries all over the world.
