We will now program our Pneumatic Pusher simulator with the Click PLUS PLC. The Machine Simulator (MS) is a valuable component of the Machine Simulator Software Suite. It offers a range of built-in machines, including the pneumatic pusher machine, which effectively demonstrates various programming techniques. We will use the Click PLC programming software to showcase a sequencer application for this example. In this scenario, two boxes on a conveyor belt are pushed onto the loading dock at a time with one pneumatic pusher. When eight boxes are accumulated on the loading dock, a second pneumatic cylinder pusher will move them into a crate.  A logical sequence of steps will be implemented, with a counter controlling the progression. This fundamental approach to programming sequences applies to all PLCs. We will use the free Click programming software and a Click PLUS PLC to program the Machine Simulator pneumatic pusher simulator. Communication between the software and the PLC will be established using Modbus TCP (Ethernet). The program sequencer offers a convenient and efficient means of controlling the automation system. We will follow the five program development steps to guide you. These steps will provide a clear and structured approach to programming the sequencer. With that said, let's dive right in and begin our journey into the world of pneumatic-pushing PLC program development. Our website post provides effortless access to all the relevant links discussed in the video. We have gathered all the necessary information for your convenience, to all the resources mentioned. https://accautomation.ca/master-the-pneumatic-pusher-simulator-now/ 00:00 Master the Pneumatic Pusher Simulator Now! 01:34 Define the task: (Step 1 – Click Pneumatic Pusher) 04:14 Define the Inputs and Outputs: (Step 2 – Click Pneumatic Pusher) 05:56 Develop a logical sequence of operation: (Step 3 – Click Pneumatic Pusher)  07:30 Develop the Click PLC program: (Step 4 – Click Pneumatic Pusher) 12:59 Test the program: (Step 5 – Click Pneumatic Pusher) The EasyPLC Software Suite Series can be found here... https://accautomation.ca/series/easyplc-software-suite/ Some previous posts include the following: EasyPLC Installing the Software
