PLC & Scada Workshop. Programmable Logic Controller or PLC is a computing system used to control electromechanical processes. SCADA stands for Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition. It is a type of industrial control system that is used to monitor and control facilities and infrastructure in industries.
1. Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) smoothens the mechanical automation process in manufacturing units and construction buildings.
2. Due to its dynamic development, sequential control, counters and timers, ease of programming, reliable controlling capabilities, and ease of hardware usage; Programmable Logic Controllers are also utilized in various control system areas.
3. Programmable Logic Controllers are significantly applied in industries, and helps in eliminating hard wiring associated with conventional relay control circuits, enhancing the productivity.
4. Type: Unitary PLCs, Modular PLCs, and Rack mount PLCs.
5. End User: Process Industry, Discrete Industry, and Building Automation.
6. Application: Automotive, Paper & Pulp, Water & Waste Water Treatment, Chemical & Petrochemical, Food & Beverages, Energy & Utilities, Oil & Gas, Pharmaceutical, and others.
7. Key Market Players: Rockwell Automation, OMRON, Panasonic, Toshiba, Mitsubishi Electric, Delta Electronics, Siemens, Schneider Electric, Honeywell, ABB, Beckhoff Automation, Hitachi, Electronics and Yokogawa
Pervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) is a control system architecture that uses computers, networked data communications and graphical user interfaces for high-level process supervisory management, but uses other peripheral devices such as programmable logic controller (PLC) and discrete PID controllers to interface with the process plant or machinery. The use of SCADA has been also considered for management and operations of project-driven-process in construction.
PLC is essentially a hardware based system. It is nothing but a computer designed for one specific task of reading field instruments and controlling actuators, motors etc based on what program is written in it.
The PLC hardware is designed taking into account harsh industrial environments, requirements of modularity and scalability etc. Programming languages are simple. Programs can be modified online without stopping the PLC or the operations it controls.
Just like the PLC, the SCADA systems are usually designed for modularity and scalability.
1. Reliability in operation
2. Flexibility in control
3. Online/Offline modifications
