I was delighted to hear that Western Business Publishing is launch a brand new publication, Controls, Drives & Automation in 2012. The new title will be published six times a year, and promises to deliver news, comment, application stories, opinion and feature articles. The magazine will be presented in five sections: Power Transmission, Drives & Motors, Controls, Automation and Machine Building & Engineering, and will have special focus sections on specific industry sectors every issue.
The publishers promise an impressive circulation of over 19,000 machine builders, system integrators, end users, OEMs, contractors and consultants in the UK, whose responsibilities include design engineering, production engineering, R&D and general management. The media pack is available now.
It’s always good to see new titles get launched, and with the right editorial team this publication could quickly become a major force in the UK market.
