PLC-Based Industrial Automation Project
A practical industrial automation project in which a PLC-based control structure works together with field devices.
About the Project
This practical automation project demonstrates how PLC-based control logic, field devices, and industrial automation components work together. The video shows communication and data transfer between Python and a PLC over RS485 using Modbus.
Operating Principle
The application establishes data exchange between the software layer and the PLC so that control states can be transferred and monitored. Input and output relationships can be evaluated alongside the control logic and field-side conditions.
Control Structure
The control structure organizes commands, status information, and PLC input/output data into a consistent flow. This makes the relationship between the software and control layers observable in a practical setup.
Implementation and Testing
Testing focuses on the communication link, data transfer, and bidirectional monitoring of input and output states. The project video presents the operating flow and the connection established with the physical control components.
