AMST 20753 - Programmable Logic Controls for Manufacturing

3 Credit(s) : 2 Lecture Hour(s) , 3 Laboratory Hour(s)
Prerequisite(s): AMST 20153 
This course is a study of programmable logic controllers (PLCs) including ladder logic interfacing of sensors, actuation devices, and drives. This course will cover analyzing specified machine processes and determine PLC input and output requirements needed for proper process control as well as connecting appropriate sensors and drive mechanisms to interface PLC control with a machine process. Creating and preparing a program for a given machine process that incorporates both automatic and single-step modes of operation and entering a PLC program that demonstrates the proper operation of the process will be taught.
