Workshops & Seminars 2023-2024
A two-day Industrial Training Program was conducted by Mr. S. Raja and Mr. Kesav of Silicon Systems, Coimbatore for the faculty of the Department of Robotics and Automation. The program focused on PLC, VFD, and SCADA, covering both theoretical concepts and practical applications.
The training delved into PLC hardware and programming, with a specific emphasis on developing Ladder Logic Programs for Delta PLC AS218TX using ISP Soft software. These programs were created and tested in online mode before being downloaded to the PLC for practical implementation.
Additionally, the program included hands-on training on Variable Frequency Drives (VFD) interfaced with DVP14SS2 Delta PLC. Various modes for controlling the speed of a 3-phase induction motor using VFD were explored and implemented.
The participants were also exposed to the interfacing of Human Machine Interface (HMI) with AS218TX PLC using the DoPSoft HMI Tool. This practical aspect allowed the participants to gain valuable insights into real-world applications.
The training concluded with a session on SCADA software, where DIAView Development and DIAView Runtime were utilized. Participants learned how to acquire and analyze real-time data and control the PLC by providing various inputs. Overall, the program provided a comprehensive understanding of PLC, VFD, and SCADA technologies through hands-on experience and practical applications.
