Description

This course, updated to 2024, takes you by the hand to this great specialty within industrial automation. If your interest is to be one of the best engineers in the field of industrial automation, definitely the knowledge of industrial drives should be part of your day to day.

Variable Frequency Drives 2024 Course & Complete PLC Course Drives

This 2024 course on VFD drives, variable frequency drives, variable speed drives or inverters, guarantees that you will learn how to configure drives of any brand with the 5-step methodology.

The best way to learn is through practice, therefore, 2 drive simulators are included when you purchase this course, so you can perform your desired configurations:

-Drive of Danfoss brand.

-Yaskawa brand drive.

We will teach in a fluid way the different applications and operation of induction motors, how a frequency inverter works, wiring of the drives, what are the really important parameters required when configuring them, how to perform the different types of tuning within a drive, the type of control SVC, V / Hz, DTC.

With what I have learned in the classes, I will perform practically, together with you, the configuration and wiring of 4 different brands of drives:

-Delta (Taiwanese brand).

-Yaskawa (Japanese brand).

-HNC (Chinese brand).

-PowerFlex 525 (US brand).

Also, we will review advanced parameters and unique concepts based entirely on field experience; topics that you will really need when practicing this amazing specialty.

Finally, I will teach how to communicate Allen Bradley brand drives with our Logix generation PLC, in other words we will use the advantages of communication to utilize the CCW and Studio 5000 software.

Who this course is for:

Automation, Robotics, Mechatronics and Electrical Engineers.
