The Ultimate Guide to PLC Programming for Sorting Operations

This sorting operation will sort three bottles on separate conveyor lines creating an efficient and powerful machine. The PLC will use shift registers to track and control the position of the bottles. Two pick-and-place robots will be used to move the bottles, creating an ultimate machine to program. Sequencers will be used within the PLC programming to control the two-axis robots. Now, let's get started on this exciting project! The five steps for PLC program development will be followed to ensure successful implementation. This will guide you in creating this sorting operation. EasyPLC packaging sorting line will be connected to the Do-More designer PLC simulator using Modbus TCP (Ethernet). An operator panel with a start and stop, lighted pushbuttons, and an emergency stop will control the packaging sorting line. More information can be obtained on our website.
