PLC ChemEng
PLC ChemEng offers online training programs with a wide range of process automation and drive IoT technology
PLC ChemEng was established in 2021. With assistance from our “neighbor” training in a small classroom in the university, offers online training programs with a wide range of process automation and drive IoT technology courses including SIMATIC PLC : TIA Portal V17 and WinCC unified for industrial networks.
Recently, we are launching a new educational bench scale. This low-cost PLC trainer and starter kit provides a comprehensive experimental deployment for industry 4.0 to the implementations of advanced control engineering using an example of pressure control and IOT cloud monitoring.
All components are clearly laid out on a moveable front panel. The compact process schematic provides an aid to understanding. The controlled system is operated by a diaphragm compressed air. The use of dual in-line pressure tanks permits a PID controlled system to be constructed. Disturbances can be generated by alternate air tapping by way of a hand-operated valve. Both pressure tanks are fitted with gauges. A pressure transducer measures the operating pressure. The controller used is a state-of-the-art digital industrial controller. The actuator in the control loop is an electro-pneumatic control valve. The controlled variable X and the manipulating variable Y can be tapped as analogue signals I/O at lab jacks. This enables external recording equipment, such as a plotter or an oscilloscope, to be connected.
An instrumentation and control software with interface TCP/IP port is available as an accessory. This enables the key process variables to be represented, and control functions executed. The well-structured instructional material sets out both the fundamentals and advanced which provides a step-by-step guide through the R&D experiments.
Learning Outcomes / R&D experiments and practices
The setting unit is operated via HMI touch screen with intuitive user interface. Via a Modbus TCP/IP interface the measured values can be transferred to a PC and stored there. By means of an integrated IoT built-in router, the unit can additionally be operated and controlled via one end device and the user interface can be displayed on screen mirroring. For tracking and evaluation of the simulated experiments, PLCSIM advanced software can be used simultaneously using the internet connection by floating licenses.
a) Fundamentals of control engineering - latest industrial 4.0 components: controllers, transducers, actuators and IoT clouding
b) PID control and possibility to create control loop strategies
c) Develop industry 4.0 on relevant skills for successfully performing automation and maintenance tasks
e) Programming in four different IEC 61131 languages: ladder codes, sequence of control, organized block (OB), function block (FB), Data blocks (DB) and other structured text
f) Practical applications of ladder logic (LAD) programming language
g) Familiarization with SIMATIC step 7 and WinCC (TIA Portal V17)
h) Access the whole system via any current web browser (WinCC Unified)
