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
The automatic packing machine in the Machine Simulator (EasyPLC) Software Suite is an excellent way to learn PLC programming. We will use the Do-More Designer simulator to program this scene from the Machine Simulator Software suite. This suite was previously called EasyPLC but has since changed its name to better describe this industry-leading learning software. … Read more
We will use Modbus TCP (Ethernet) to connect and program the XGB PLC to the Machine Simulator Easy Transfer Line. The Machine Simulator (EasyPLC) Software Suite is a comprehensive package with PLC, HMI, and Machine Simulator software. It features a Machine Simulator (MS) that allows virtual communication with many programmable logic controllers (PLCs) in a … Read more
