Product Quality Verification! Do More PLC Sequencer
Nov 27, 2023
We will be demonstrating counter-sequencing logic on the Do-More PLC Simulator and EasyPLC. EasyPLC software suite includes a machine simulator named Machine Simulator (MS). It has a variety of machines that can be programmed and customized. One of these machines is the body car quality verification machine, which utilizes a camera and a collaborative robot (cobot) to check the body and a second cobot to mark the inspection pass. If the inspection fails, a robot will return the car's body. The virtual machine will be programmed using the Do-More Designer PLC Simulator.
We will use the Do-More Designer PLC software to establish communication between the simulator and the quality verification machine and connect them via Modbus TCP (Ethernet). This will enable seamless communication and data exchange between the two systems.
To demonstrate the programming of the virtual machine, we will follow the five steps for program development. These steps provide a structured approach to ensure the efficient and effective development of the ladder logic program. By following these steps, we can ensure that the program meets the specifications and functions as intended.
Now, let's dive into the first step of the program development process. This step involves defining the task of our car body product quality verification. By clearly defining the task, we can establish the objectives and requirements that the program needs to fulfill. This will serve as the foundation for the subsequent steps in the development process.
