The Profibus Association of Australia (PAA) is adding new members at a strong clip. Similarly, membership in the Japanese Profibus Organization (JPO) has surpassed 100. Both accomplishments underscore the growing adoption of PROFIBUS and PROFINET as global, market-leading technologies.
Over the last 18 months, the PAA has invested in programs and campaigns to raise awareness within the industry about the productivity and cost benefits that automation solutions driven by PROFIBUS / PROFINET can offer.
