Overview
Industrial control is a key element in any factory automation process. It may vary from a simple panel-mounted controller to large interconnected and interactive distributed control systems.
PLCs are integral to industrial control; their primary function is to control individual machines or stations in real time making low deterministic latency a key factor.
The functionality of the PLC include sequential relay control, motion control, process control, distributed control systems, and networking.
Multiple interfaces and purpose PLC control card for the system interfaces between host system and daughter modules.
Features
- They can be designed for many arrangements of digital and analog I/O, extended temperature ranges, immunity to electrical noise, and resistance to vibration and impact.
- Capable for memory extension for various system requirement
Use Cases
A programmable logic controller (PLC) is an industrial digital computer which has been ruggedized and adapted for the control of manufacturing processes, such as assembly lines, or robotic devices, or any activity that requires high reliability, ease of programming and process fault diagnosis.
