# Craig Salvalaggio Discusses Industrial Safety with Control Engineering

 Published by [AMT](https://blog.appliedmfg.com/blog/author/amt) on  Dec 20, 2018 11:41:07 AM

*Control Engineering* referenced Applied Manufacturing’s Vice President of Sales and Engineering, Craig Salvalaggio, in a December 10, 2018 article that explored the larger and more nuanced implications of industrial safety. When prompted about starting a robotics project, Salvalaggio explained the importance of taking a hard look at internal resources before opting to do the work in-house without the aid of an integrator.
