PLC programming in SoftSystem



Leader in the programming of industrial PLCs


What is a PLC?

The PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) is a customizable digital device specialized in programming of industrial processes. They were born in the late 60s in the automotive industry in the States

United by replacing logical relay systems. The PLC He offered several advantages compared to previous automation systems. Tolerated the industrial environment better than computers and was much more reliable and compactIn addition to this, it required reduced maintenance compared to the old relay systems, subject to electric and mechanical failures. The PLC It is able to interpret and perform the instructions of the programs stored in it, interacting with a control circuit through entrance devices (input) and output (output).

It is also able to interface with complex supervision systems, such as Scada (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition).

There Industrial PLC programming It plays an absolutely central role in our business, being currently predominant for the control of industrial automation systems. Since the PLC is substantially the "mind" that governs what are the complex processes of a system, we at Softsystem have a duty to remain updated on the progress of the technologies present in the 4.0 industry market. This allows us to be, in our field, one of the most consolidated realities in the territory of Pisa and surroundings!”.

Integration of PLC in industrial automation systems

The PLCs are usually integrated into theindustrial automation, Graze to their calculation capacity, but also to their robustness, which allows them to resist hostile environments with electrical interference, high temperature and humidity, dust, vibrations, any kind of element that could compromise the integrity of a

electronic device, managing to work 24 hours a day in certain cases, 365 days a year. There PLC programming Industrial allows the latter to work as an independent units capable of continuously monitoring and automating a specific process or function of the machine. THE PLC They are used in industrial automation to increase the reliability, stability and performance of the system, minimizing the need for human operators and the possibilities of human error. Programming PLC industrial allows the PLC same to be connected to the net e manage an entire production line.

“Being the Province of Pisa very industrialized (tanning, chemical, food, etc. sector), I had the opportunity to monitor the advance of industry 4.0 in our territory. Initially it was welcomed with distrust but with the passage of time more and more companies are welcoming the idea. On the other hand, it is a question of reducing costs, risks and improving quantity and quality of production, therefore, why not? For the construction of a good system, however, it is essential that the PLC predisposed to the control of operations is programmed in a workmanlike manner. All our technicians have many years of experience and are constantly updated on the advancement of technologies and this allows for adapting needs of customers operating in any type of sector. "

PLC programming

There Industrial PLC programming It is so structured:

  • The PLC programmer initially studies the technical requirements of the process to be controlled.
  • The electric designer then draws the electrical on -edge electrical schemes and the related electrical automation panels. It also draws the interaction schemes between electrical and electromechanical components, entrances and exits.
  • Subsequently the PLC programmer Structures the sequences of the program according to the specifications assigned and designs the logical flow diagrams.
  • He then deals with the writing of the program, using specific commercial software such as Siemens Tia Portal https://new.siemens.com/it/it/prodotti/automazione/systems/industrial.html.

"For this kind of operations Intuition and adaptation capacity are fundamentalThis is why the field experience is undoubtedly the best training for PLC's programming. In the event of malfunction or PLC modification, an immediate intervention is carried out that has the purpose of analyzing the problem, offering the customer the most favorable solution in terms of costs and timing. Unfortunately, the problems exist but we are proud to be the solution! "
