Today we’re taking a look at the Top Ten episodes of The Automation Show released since 2020.

If you don’t know, The Automation Show is our longer format series, with episodes typically clocking in at 10 or 20 minutes, which is perfect for first time using and how-to videos.

And thanks to the growing support from industry, we had the chance to work with several new vendors over the last few years to produce several of our most popular shows to date, many of which you’ll find below in this year’s Top Ten list of new episodes of The Automation Show:
