Book Fundamentals of PLC Programming
ISBN Number: 978-1-4276-4598-2
The World of Automation is in constant change. In order to respond to the markets needs, new automation products are launched every day. These automation products are based on the available technology that can be obtained from both: Components and manufacturing capabilities.
Since the fast evolution of industrial automation is becoming the main fact in competitiveness in a more globalized world, both parts involved (Industries and Engineers), need to look for a good and right knowledge that can help them to survive.
Education on PLCs is the key to success.
Trying to cover all the aspects about information is indeed a hard task, which we are working on but for sure, will take a lot of our time.
Our book on PLC fundamentals is the ideal choice of professors of Universities and Colleges, that have a regular course on Programmable Automation Controllers ( PLCs) or Industrial Automation Processes ( PACs ), because of the following advantages:
1- Basic Theory on PLCs.
2- Basic Theory on Ladder Logic.
3- Lessons with practice on Ladder Logic.
4- Examples of machines and Projects with PLC.
5- Simulation Software to assign homeworks to students.
6- Real practice on our low cost PLC trainers.
7- Appendixes ( in preparation) of several popular PLC brands.
In addition to Educators, other professionals can also have benefit of the book:
- People with no previous background on automation.
- Engineers and Tecnicians that want to learn
about PLCs, because the didn´t get this knowledge
during their normal education.
- Industrial and manufacturing companies in read
of training the employees but have no time to send them
to attend a external education.
- Professionals of any discipline other than
electrical/electronics.
- In general the book can be ordered by an
enthusiastic self learner or a student
taking the course at any given institution
that uses our book to impart the classes.
Most of the books about Programmable Logic Controllers you find in the market :
- Have only theory about PLCs.
- Are associated to a particular PLC brand which, in our concept, is pretty unfair with the students.
- Just a few of them have lessons and examples.
- Almost none of them include simulator software.
All the limitations mentioned above are truly over passed by our book and even better: We do offer our PLC trainers as the tool for hands-on practice.
Since we are striving to write a very good book, we have decided to launch our book as a binded set of chapters with good quality printing., until we have a final edition out of mistakes.
Our book includes the following:
- Father of the PLCs.
- What is a PLC?.
- Types of PLC.
- Basic architecture of a PLC application.
- Parts of a PLC.
- Software components of PLC.
- Ladder logic programming.
- Other programming methodologies.
- Programming and simulation software Wintrilogi.
- PLC lessons.
- Ladder logic projects.
