compact plc

Have you been to shop that houses many machines, like factories and large buildings? If you have, then surely noticed that there are a million wires and control boxes everywhere. Every machine needs some form of communication with a computer that knows what it has to do. All that wiring and control boxes can take up space, as well cost a pretty penny to install and run. This is where compact PLC technology steps in to assist!

A PLC (Programmable Logic Controller. These are universal machines and sensors, in other words this a small computer that can communicate with many different devices. A compact PLC is just a smaller variation of that computer, so it can more easily fit into tight spaces and uses less power And this means each control box and wire will run more machines, which is better (and cheaper!)

Maximize Efficiency and Space with Compact PLC Solutions

So, let´s slow down a bit and consider how this traffic light works. A traffic light must turn red, then yellow and finally green with precision to teach drivers when they should stop or proceed. Without a computer, you would need many switches and wires to make the lights behave properly. In a compact PLC solving this is more straight forward. The Light sequence can be installed directly in the PLC and will automatically take control over lights without need for any other thing.

The above is just an example of how compact PLCs save and make things run better. For instances, in a factory scenario it might be the requirement of multiple machines to work in a particular order for manufacturing any product. The whole system can be arranged to operate smoothly reducing space needed for all the individual controls, a compact PLC enables this and more. This allows more space on the devices themselves.
