Description
THE WHAT?
The heart of every control systems is a PLC or Programmable Logic Controller. The PLC is behind most products and industries.
1. The water in your tap, behind it is a water treatment process which involves Control Systems.
2. The electricity in your households came from power plants. The power generation process involves Control Systems.
3. The fuel that is running our cars and industries. The oil exploration, extraction and refinery processes involves Control Systems.
4. The multi-vitamins and medicine that you get from the pharmacies or hospitals. Manufacturing it is a very stringent process which involves Control Systems.
THE WHY?
If you are an engineer or an engineering student. Learning how to program a PLC is an important skill set that will take you to a very rewarding career.
THE HOW?
In this course, we will be teaching you how to program a PLC in a universal approach, that you can even perform your PLC logic development on paper.
We will be using Function Block Diagram PLC programming language, because it is used by most of the big industries like Oil & Gas, Water Treatment, Power Generation, Petrochemical and Pharmaceutical.
