PLC Programming Example - Pick and Place

[@ACCautomation]

The Do-More Designer Software also comes with a simulator. You could also use the simulator in this application to communicate Modbus TCP to the Factory IO scene. The software can be downloaded free of charge at the following location: support.automationdirect.com/products/domore.html A full version of Factory IO can be downloaded for a 30 day trial at the following location: factoryio.com/get-factory-io/ Regards, Garry

you are the best one for plc programming that i seek for along

[@ACCautomation]

Thanks for the comments Aragaw. I'm glad you find this helpful. Garry

Hello sir I have dl06 plc can I connect through ethernet module slot to factory io software.?

[@ACCautomation]

Hi Aziz Medetov, Yes, you can connect Modbus to the DL06. This part of the manual will show you the Modbus addresses for the DL06. cdn.automationdirect.com/static/manuals/d006userm/ch4.pdf If you have Factory IO already, then that is great. If you need a machine simulator like Factory IO. I would suggest EasyPLC. This is easy to program, and the investment is lower than Factory IO with more capabilities. Here is a link to the EasyPLC series on the website. accautomation.ca/series/easyplc-software-suite/ Regards, Garry

Hi @Garry Shortt ! Thanks for your informative videos, we really appreciate them. I was wondering if you could perhaps do a separate video about how exactly you solved the Pick&Place problem, the methods you used in details and how you implemented and combined them together to come up with the optimal solution, I really need to know the how to part, not a ready to use solution, thanks in advance.

Hi Leonardo, Thanks for the comments. Developing the PLC program is a process that can be clearly defined. Here is a series that will show you the five steps along with some practical examples. accautomation.ca/five-steps-to-plc-program-development/ Five Steps to PLC Program Development PLC Programming Example - Process Mixer PLC Programming Example - Shift Register (Conveyor Reject) PLC Programming Example - Paint Spraying PLC Programming Example - Delay Starting of 7 Motors PLC Programming Example - Pick and Place PLC Programming Example - Sorting Station (Shift Register) PLC Programming Example - Palletizer accautomation.ca/programming/plc-beginners-guide/ I hope this helps you out.

Can this be done using Do-More simulator communicating with Factory-IO? If so how can it be done? And how to communicate factory IO with Do-More virtual simulator. Basically, I want to do this project without using any hardware.

[@ACCautomation]

Yes, this can be done with the Do-More Designer Simulator instead of the hardware. I know of several training centers that are using this method. You can download this program from our website. accautomation.ca/plc-programming-example-pick-and-place/ Regards, Garry

[@mr.potato4956]

Can u share me a link of how can i communicate my Do-More designer simulator with Factory-IO?

[@ACCautomation]

@@mr.potato4956 You would just download the PLC program to the Do-More Designer Software Simulator. In Factory IO ensure that the Modbus Client is pointing to the computer IP address. Here is a series on the Simulator: kzbin.info/aero/PL3y71jAPOdZB5LJMMotZP36LvzfdgkgzW Regards, Garry

Hi Mahendra, There is a complete series on the Do-More BRX PLC. This will take you through learning how this PLC works. accautomation.ca/series/brx-do-more-plc/ I hope this helps you out. Regards, Garry

hey, do you have the sfc for automatic warehouse?

[@ACCautomation]

Hi Paola, I have not done the Automatic Warehouse scene in Factory IO. Regards, Garry

[@vutran-fy6wk]

Can you help me? I have a problem that i want MOVE Z when Z stop then MOVE X but i do not know when the Z stop because the cyclinder do not have roller (switch journey)

[@ACCautomation]

Hi Vu Tran, If the cylinder does not have a switch at the end of the stroke, you should use a timer to determine when the cylinder would be extended. At the end of the timer you can then move X. Regards, Garry

[@vutran-fy6wk]

@@ACCautomation Thank you. I tried, it 's ok but i thinking another way to slove by use value Moving Z . Thank your vid.

[@ACCautomation]

Thank you for the update. I'm glad you got it working. Garry
