Based in Perth, ACS is a provider of industrial automation, control systems and services in Australia.

The Rockwell Automation System Integrator program is designed to educate and produce partners who are able to help solve production challenges by advising on and delivering solutions.

Within this discipline, ACS is focused on delivering Low Voltage MCC solutions which leverage the Rockwell Automation Integrated Architecture Platform.

Advances in technologies such as the Industrial Internet of Things have enabled motor control devices such as variable speed drives and overload relays to become more intelligent.

By connecting them over Ethernet, operators can realise the benefits of the Connected Enterprise by monitoring and analysing operations from anywhere at anytime.
