Industrial control refers to industrial automation control, mainly achieved through the combination of electronic, electrical, mechanical, and software technologies. It is also known as Industrial control (Factory control), or Factory Automation control. It mainly refers to the use of computer technology, microelectronics technology, and electrical means to make the factory's production and manufacturing processes more automated, efficient, and precise, with controllability and visibility.

Industrial control computers are a general term for tools that use bus architecture to detect and control production processes, electromechanical equipment, and process equipment. They have important computer attributes and characteristics, such as: computer CPU, hard disk, memory, peripherals and interfaces, real-time operating system, control network and protocols, computing power, friendly human-machine interface, etc. The main categories of industrial control computers include: IPC (PC bus industrial computer), PLC (Programmable Logic Controller), DCS (Distributed Control System), FCS (Fieldbus System), and CNC (Computer Numerical Control) - five types in total.
　　Industrial control software, in a narrow sense, refers to so-called Industrial control software. Since the adoption of programmable controllers, industrial control software has become an inseparable part of industrial automation. However, in practical applications, control software is not isolated; it must be integrated with other software to fulfill its proper role. Therefore, in a broad sense, industrial control software should include data acquisition, human-machine interface, process control, databases, data communication, etc. Its scope of coverage continues to enrich with technological development, evolving from pure control to factory informatization integrated with management.
