Abstract:
Programmable logic controllers are used in industry in many areas of automation and technology as well as for control and regulation tasks. A PLC is a device with specialized input and output interfaces. These interfaces (sensors and actuators) to regulate, controls and monitors the manufacturing processes. While designing pneumatic circuit’s more than one cylinder using cascade circuits or KV design in basic pneumatics and electrical relays with timer and counter circuits in electro pneumatics is complicated and using limited cylinders only. Thus the complicated circuits using more number of cylinders can easily be implemented by programming using any kind of PLC or Arduino microcontroller .When comparing the cost of Arduino microcontroller ten times less than the PLC unit. Moreover interfacing devices of input sensors are easily adoptable one with low cost and can be interfaced to any kind of output environment like OLED display, Bluetooth, WIFI control and I O T control system.
