Story

Jose Manuel Luque, founder

My name is Jose Manuel Luque and I live in Barcelona (Spain). I am a technician by profession and have always worked in industry. The last few years have been dedicated to programming PLCs, HMIs and SCADAs... And above all... Learning.

I decided to create this space (July 2012) in the great cloud of the internet to share the knowledge I have acquired over time, and that I still keep acquiring today, because every day is a new opportunity...

Never regard study as a duty, but as an opportunity to penetrate into the beautiful and wonderful world of knowledge.

Pedro Pagán Pallarés, author and collaborator

I am Pedro Pagán Pallarés, from Murcia, co-author of this website and Automation and Industrial Organization Engineer. I have always believed that knowledge is worth more when shared.

I met Jose Manuel while we were working together in industry, and we connected immediately, not only professionally but also as friends. Although today we each follow different paths, the friendship remains intact, as does our enthusiasm for continuing to build this project together.

This project would not have been possible without the help and collaboration of Mariano Martin, Jorge Benito, Cesar Fernandez Ramirez, Ricardo Villanueva, Esteban Valles, Raul Segovia and Miguel Custodio.
