What does a control and automation engineer do in a factory, which job titles should you search for, and how do you start this career, from study to your first job?
The Kahrobot blog has clear Arabic articles on electronics, Arduino, the Internet of Things and industrial automation: concepts, comparisons and buying guides, written by an engineer from the field.

What does a control and automation engineer do in a factory, which job titles should you search for, and how do you start this career, from study to your first job?

What is a servo motor and how does it work? A simple guide from the SG90 servo in Arduino projects to the industrial servo in factories, with a comparison table and how it differs from a stepper motor.

What is the difference between PLC, SCADA, DCS and HMI? A simple explanation of what each system does and where you find it in a factory, with a comparison table, practical examples, and where to start if you want to work with them.

What an Arduino starter kit for beginners contains, what each part is for, official vs compatible kits, and 7 tips to choose the right kit before you buy.

15 Arduino project ideas ordered from easiest to hardest, with the parts you need and what you learn from each project, without code.

A practical roadmap to learn industrial automation from scratch in 6 stages: electricity, sensors, classic control, PLC, HMI screens and SCADA, then servos and robots, with the time and tools for each stage.

A practical roadmap for learning Arduino from scratch in 6 stages: electricity basics, the simulator, your first program, sensors, a complete project, then ESP32. With time estimates and common beginner mistakes.

Arduino vs PLC from an automation engineer: purpose, voltage, reliability, programming languages and maintenance, when to use each, and why starting with Arduino helps if your goal is working in factories.

A clear comparison of the most popular free Arduino simulators, Tinkercad, Wokwi and Proteus: which one suits beginners, ESP32 and graduation projects, and what no simulator tells you.
15 pages in Arabic: the core concepts, a 6-stage roadmap, the 10 most common mistakes and how to avoid them, and a plan for your first 30 days.
Kahrobot blog articles are written by an automation engineer with 5+ years of factory experience, and we pick the topics from real questions Arab learners ask: what Arduino is and what it's used for, which board suits your project, how to choose the right sensor, and how to move from small projects to industrial automation.
That's why every article gives you a simple explanation first, then real-world examples, then a practical step you can take today. We keep adding new articles to the six sections above.
