What does PLC stand for? In industrial automation terms, PLC stands for a Programmable Logic Controller. PLCs are specialized computers designed and built to automate a variety of industrial electromechanical processes. Automation of manufacturing processes began long before the invention of PLCs. From the early to the late 1900s, industrial automation was carried out by […]
A PLC is a large standalone control unit that is pre-packaged and typically rack-mounted in a control cabinet near the equipment or the process being controlled. On the other hand, an embedded system is designed as a single board and can be fully integrated into a product. For example, a smart TV consists of an […]
The topic ‘Raspberry Pi vs. PLC’ has been an all-time favorite of the DIY and industrial automation community. In this article, we’ll be discussing each one, what they can do, what each has to offer, and contrast them according to their capabilities to better understand which one we should select for a particular application. What […]
Overview of PLC Analog Outputs A Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) is a compact computer-based industrial control system that uses input/output(I/O) modules to control processes, machines, equipment, and other control modules. A PLC receives various types of electronic and electrical signals. It uses the received signals(input) and its programmed logic to monitor and control the outputs […]
PLC’s CPU Functions Programmable Logic Controllers are digital electronic devices that are mainly used as industrial control systems. PLCs contain a programmable memory that stores a series of user-defined instructions. They function by continuously monitoring the state of input devices and executing the stored program logic so as control the state of connected output devices. […]
Our modern society, relies heavily on automated machinery or equipment to perform most of the critical industrial processes, from generating electricity to refining oil. Advancements in automation technology has led to the development of more sophisticated and tech-savvy industrial control systems. This has allowed industries to scale new heights of innovation and production. The Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) forms the backbone of these advanced control systems. What is a Programmable Logic Controller? What are the […]
Industrial setups that deal with water and waste control, oil and gas, energy, telecommunications, and transportation, use complex technologies to monitor the processes involved. If the correct monitoring technology is not installed, then these industries would not be able to efficiently provide the essential services that people depend on. Technological advances in the industrial sector […]
Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) are used as a hardware platform on which a control program is executed. They are the most popular and powerful devices used in industrial process control applications. A PLC program or algorithm can be defined as a combination of various functions that are needed to automate a given task. Automation principles […]
PLC Inputs Overview PLC controlled systems have become the backbone of almost all industrial automation processes globally. A PLC collects data from field devices, processes it as pre-programmed, and passes it as output to another system. To accomplish this, PLCs are equipped with sophisticated electronic input modules (for collecting field data) and output modules (for providing […]
PLCs are general-purpose, microprocessor-based controllers which provide logic, counting, analog, and timing control enhanced with a variety of network communications capabilities. It is mainly used in industrial computing systems to control manufacturing processes, assembly lines, and other industrial automation equipment that require a highly reliable control and fault diagnosis method. A PLC system consists of […]
