iv got to make a plc program for my electrical course which has to have atleast 30 elements in. does anyone have any suggestions on what program i could build?

 

[MrMikey83]

Just a program right? You dont actually have to build the thing?

I would suggest a 5 station conveyer belt line. Maybe a sequence that would cut and drill parts for something.
Station 1
Stop Sensor
Drill
Station 2
Stop Sensor
Rotate
Drill
Sensor 3
Stop Sensor
etc...
etc...
etc...
Conveyer uses one output.

You get the idea. When I made mine, it only had about 16 outputs on the trainer system. Basically, I did something like the above sequence.

Hi everybody,
im at university studying electronic and electrical engineering and actually im on industrial training.i would like to learn PLCs on my own cause there is much of these there so that i can get along quite well with them.
im quite good in digital logic and less in programming,about how much time it will take me to learn provided that im highly motivated and eager to learn?
some advice would be most welcomed...
thank you
