The training of PLCs is a part of Industrial Automation. PLC training is one of the most fundamental and important aspects of Industrial Automation. An industry’s entire process is controlled by PLCs, which are at the center of everything that takes place in it. PLC (Programmable logic controllers) have become an essential device for automating manufacturing processes. Developed in the 1960s, PLCs started out the size of suitcases and required logic programs to be drawn out on a drafting board before being loaded onto the device with a numeric keypad.
PLC reads the status of the external input devices, e.g. keypad, sensor, switch and pulses, and execute by the microprocessor logic, sequential, timing, counting and arithmetic operations according the status of the input signals as well as the pre-written program stored in the PLC. The generated output signals are sent to output devices as the switch of a relay, electromagnetic valve, motor drive, control of a machine or operation of a procedure for the purpose of machine automation or processing procedure. The peripheral devices (e.g. personal computer/handheld programming panel) can easily edit or modify the program and monitor the device and conduct on-site program maintenance and adjustment.
