4 sections35 lectures4h 50m total length
  • Guide to run A-B PLC projects12:06

    Learn to download and run Allen-Bradley plc codes with RSLogix 5000 and Factory I/O, using emulators to configure a virtual PLC and HMI.

  • Best parking lot control system7:30

    Explore a plc-based parking lot control system with entry and exit sensors, timers, and ladder relay logic to manage a 100-car lot, gate operation, and green/red status lights.

  • Best automatic watering system for garden6:21

    A plc controlled automatic garden watering system uses temperature and humidity sensors to start when conditions are right, cycling valves for 10, 15, and 25 seconds until the stop button.

  • Bottle filling system11:59

    Explore a PLC controlled bottle loading system with conveyors, limit switches I1 and I2, inlet valve, and relays Q1–Q5 that automate loading, transfer, packing, and operator alerts.

  • Pedestrian crossing traffic lights3:13

    Explore a PLC-controlled pedestrian crossing: push button start, car lights Q3/Q4, yellow five seconds, red fifteen seconds, pedestrian green in five seconds, Q5 blinks, and I1 imposes ten-minute restart delay.

Description

Hello, friends! I'm Seyedreza Fattahzadeh, and with 20 years in the automation field, I’m thrilled to introduce my latest course: 'PLC Projects for Engineering Students.'

This course is your gateway to mastering PLC programming with hands-on projects that bring classroom knowledge to life. Whether you’re just starting out or looking to deepen your expertise, each project is crafted to bridge the gap between theory and real-world application.

Inspired by Confucius—'I hear and I forget, I see and I remember, I do and I understand'—this course gets you doing, with real-world PLC problems and detailed solutions that make learning stick.

Then, we dive into PLC simulators Allen Bradley RSLogix 500/5000 Emulator, Siemens Simatic  PLCSIM, Delata and CODESYS virtual PLCs. With these tools, you can practice your PLC skills anywhere, no hardware required.

And it doesn’t stop there! We also simulate HMI projects using WinCC Flexible and FactoryTalk, allowing you to create an interactive experience without costly equipment—just pure learning.

By the end of this course, you’ll have the confidence and skills to take on a range of PLC programming challenges, positioning yourself for real-world success in engineering and automation.

Ready to elevate your skills? Join me, and let’s turn knowledge into mastery through practical, engaging projects that set you apart. I can’t wait to see you in the course!

Who this course is for:

  • Engineering Students
  • Eagerness to learn how to program a typical PLC more efficiently
