PROGRAMMABLE LOGIC CONTROLLER (PLC)
COURSE DESCRIPTION WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
Almost all industrial equipment used in manufacturing facilities This training course is suitable for automation and plc
rely on a controller computer in today’s modern world. The programmers but will greatly benefit:
commonly used controller is the Programmable Logic Beginners at programming looking to advance
Controller (PLC). The Allen-Bradley ControlLogix, which their skills on the job
includes the processors and I/O modules, is designed and
Advanced programmers who need to understand and use
programmed with Rockwell’s proprietary RSLogix 5000.
This course is designed to provide participants with a thorough the modern RSLogix 5000 in their organization
grasp of the fundamental values required to program, Facility managers responsible for seeing the operational
troubleshoot, and have the most comprehensive knowledge of process in the facilities
Rockwell Automation PLC controls using RSlogix 5000 or Studio Project design, commission and programming engineers
5000. This course begins at the beginning and builds up element who work in the manufacturing facilities where the
by element to provide the most comprehensive coverage of PLC RSLogix 5000 program will be deployed
controls. Other professionals within or outside the industry
willing to learn and acquire knowledge
