A programmable logic controller (PLC) is a small industrial computer used to automate processes in manufacturing and industrial environments. Learning how to program a PLC can seem intimidating, especially because most commercial tools are expensive …
The demand for cleaner energy continues to grow. Renewable sources such as solar, wind, hydro, and geothermal power are the solution. However, these advanced systems cannot run independently. They need a reliable control. This is …
Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs), are the heart of modern automation. They control machines, manage processes, and keep factories running smoothly. One of the most important parts of a PLC system is the input module. Without …
Hot-swapping is the ability to replace or insert components in a system while it is still running and powered. This means there is no need to turn OFF the system or interrupt the process. In …
Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) act as the central command system, they collect data from sensors, process control logic, and trigger actions that keep machines and production lines running. From automotive plants to food processing facilities, …
Modern elevators rely heavily on Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs). A PLC is a digital control device that acts as the main “brain” of the elevator system. It processes signals from buttons, switches, and sensors. It …
In industrial automation, SCADA, HMI, and PLC are fundamental concepts that engineers, technicians, and operators encounter on a daily basis. Even though these three terms are often mentioned together and sometimes mistakenly used interchangeably, they …
A Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) is a specialized computer used in industrial applications. It is designed specifically to survive in harsh industrial environments and to control machines and processes reliably. The PLC works as the …
Traditionally, automation control was achieved using relay logic, which relied on physical relays wired together to make decisions. Today, this job is handled by Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs). These are specialized industrial computers built for …
Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) are the brains of modern conveyor systems, replacing older, bulky relay logic that once dominated industrial automation. Unlike simple relay panels, a PLC is a robust industrial computer that uses a …
