The information shall be exchanged between the PLC and the virtual system through a data acquisition board provided with 32 I/O isolated channels and USB interface:
16 channels with input voltage: Logic 0: 2V max., Logic 1: 5V min (60V max.) or dry contact
16 channels with output voltage: 5 ~ 40Vdc – sink current type 100mA max/channel and 1,1 A/total max.
Based on the latest PC technology, this trainer shall make PLC training easy and fun. The result shall correspond to an immersive simulated environment that allows highly realistic training processes, without any risk of injury to man or damage to machines.
The automation tasks shall be presented with increasing levels of difficulty, so that users can progress to more advanced exercises as they improve their skill.
This trainer shall reproduce five training processes based on real world industrial scenarios. Each process shall offer standard problems found in PLC programming, presented in order of increasing level of difficulty.
These training processes shall consist in:
SORTING: transport cases from the entry bay to the elevators, sorting them by height
BATCHING: mix three primary colors (red, green and blue) in order to obtain a desired color
PALLETIZER: palletize cases up to three layers
PICK & PLACE: place parts inside boxes through a three axes manipulator
AUTOMATIC WAREHOUSE: transport, store and retrieve boxes from a rack
The system shall be inserted in a didactic panel with 2 mm terminals for the digital inputs/outputs.
The PLC must be supplied with applications in LADDER language for the control of the five simulation processes.
The trainer must be supplied with manual in English language.
