PLC Example - Sorting Station Testing (Shift Register)

We will now look at a plc example using a shift register on a sorting station. The sorting station logic will be tested. More information can be obtained at our website including all of the links and downloads mentioned in the video. https://accautomation.ca/plc-programming-example-sorting-station-shift-register PLC Programming Example - Sorting Station - Video https://youtu.be/YMl2DPm_yaU This video will show you the five steps in the development of a sorting station PLC programming example project. We will apply the five steps to PLC program development to a sorting station example. The program will use shift registers to track coloured parts down a conveyor and sort depending on colour into one of three locations. The example will use a BRX PLC communicating with Factory IO (3D Software Simulator). Developing the PLC program is a process that can be clearly defined. In our series on the five steps to PLC program development, we have done some similar practical examples. Here is a review of the steps: 1.Define the task 2.Define the inputs and outputs 3.Develop a logical sequence of operation 4.Develop the PLC program 5.Test the program Previous PLC Programming Examples using the Five Steps to PLC Program Development: Five Steps to PLC Program Development - Press http://accautomation.ca/five-steps-to-plc-program-development/ Press Video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ceCQQdVgiEY Process Mixer http://accautomation.ca/plc-programming-example-process-mixer/ Process Mixer Video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=edrdAUUrKaA Process Mixer Test Simulation https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vJpGJQ8MwCk Shift Register Conveyor Reject http://accautomation.ca/plc-programming-example-shift-register-conveyor-reject/ Shift Register Conveyor Reject Video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K1j6HvNF-5s Paint Spraying http://accautomation.ca/plc-programming-example-paint-spraying/ Paint Spraying Video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yyj0syEKXAQ Delay Starting of 7 Motors http://accautomation.ca/plc-programming-example-delay-starting-of-7-motors/ Delay Starting of 7 Motors Video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hbyewg_ptxc PLC Programming Example – Pick and Place http://accautomation.ca/plc-programming-example-pick-and-place PLC Programming Example – Pick and Place - Video https://youtu.be/kDm-9yXyWXM PLC Programming Example – Pick and Place Testing - Video https://youtu.be/xovT3_LlLU8 http://www.accautomation.ca
