Practical Tips and Techniques
Join me as I take on the challenge of creating a simple start-stop circuit in ladder logic using DeepSeek AI—let’s see if it can nail it! In industrial automation, the ability to design and simulate control circuits is essential for ensuring the functionality and safety of various systems. One of the fundamental circuits used in … Read more
As we conclude another year of learning PLC programming at ACC Automation, we are excited to reflect on the progress, innovations, and milestones we’ve achieved in 2024. This year has been filled with growth, learning, and pushing the limits of industrial automation. Let’s highlight some key events from the year.
Previously, we learned that only 31% of businesses have fully automated at least one function (McKinsey). There is a massive demand for automation and creating training environments. Using the machine simulator, we utilized the Modbus TCP (Ethernet) Server in the “Easy Transfer Line.” This is just one of many pre-built scenes, or you can design … Read more
Only 31% of businesses have fully automated at least one function (McKinsey). This means a huge demand for automation and creating a training environment exists. Typically, automation training and hands-on programming take time and a lot of resources, but this is no longer the case. Creating an effective automation training environment tailored to your industry … Read more
We will now communicate from the C-more CM5 HMI to the latest Machine Simulator (EasyPLC) version, 4.1. This will be done using Ethernet on a Modbus TCP network. The machine simulator (MS) will be the server, and the C-more will be the Client. Machine simulators play a crucial role in industrial automation as they allow … Read more
The latest Machine Simulator (EasyPLC) version, 4.1, now has a Modbus Server driver. This will allow the PLC or other controlling device to be the Client in the Modbus network. Machine simulators play a crucial role in industrial automation as they allow you to replicate real-world scenarios and test the functionality of different machines in … Read more
