What do amusement park trips, factory assembly lines, and light fixtures have in common? They are all managed by a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC), a digital computer used to control machinery by constantly monitoring input and output devices.
PLCs are produced for multiple inputs and output arrangements and can oppose various temperature ranges, electrical noises, vibrations, and impacts. Combining a PLC into any production line or mechanical process is highly beneficial. PLCs enable operation processes to be changed or replicated while simultaneously collecting and communicating relevant information.

How do PLCs work?

There are four necessary operational actions for every PLC:

Input Scan: Identifies the status of all input devices that are combined to the PLC.
Program Scan: Implements the user-created program logic.
Output Scan: Either strengthens or de-energizes all connected output devices.
Housework: This includes communications with programming terminals and internal diagnostics.
