Servo Drives and VFDs Motion Control Programming for PLCs Training
About This Course
The “Motion Control in PLC Programming” course offered by ControlByte Academy is designed to teach students how to program PLC (Programmable Logic Controllers), even if they are new to the automation industry. The course is suitable for both beginners and experienced programmers, providing them with the knowledge and skills needed to succeed in the field of industrial automation.
The course is conducted through video lessons on the e-learning platform, programming exercises based on provided project templates, and homework assignments. Students receive course support through Discord chat and live meetings. The course uses Siemens TIA Portal, Codesys, and Motion Control Libraries for teaching.
Key topics covered in the course include:
- Configuration and commissioning of Sinamics V90 servo drive.
- Exercises with Motion Control library instructions.
- Drive application based on the PackML standard.
- Programming a flying saw.
- Installation of Codesys and configuration of a virtual axis.
- Production line project in Codesys.
The instructor for the course is Jacob K. Biedulski, who has a MSc in Automation and Robotics, 10 years of experience, has completed 80+ PLC projects, and has taught 850+ students in the past 3 years.
After signing up for this course, students will receive over 84 practical video lessons (more than 16 hours), test their programs in the virtual factory, receive support from instructors on Discord chat and live meetings, have homework assignments to complete on their own, and receive a certificate of course completion.
The course does not require any physical equipment as a PLC simulator PLCSIM from Siemens and Codesys runtime are used. The code written can be used in real-life projects. The course offers lifelong access to the course materials on their platform.
