Wiring Connection for a Three Wire Solid State DC Proximity Sensor Without PLC

The previous article illustrated the concept of the wiring connection of a 3 wire DC proximity sensor to a PLC (Programmable Logic Controller). Alternatively, in this article, I will explain another approach on the wiring connection of the same proximity sensor but without using a PLC.

How to Connect a 3 Wire DC Solid State Proximity Sensor to a PLC

Knowing how to connect a 3 wire DC solid state proximity sensor to a PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) is dependent on the type of proximity sensor and the PLC to be used that is specific to the design of the circuit and the preferred application.

Pinch Roller Automatic Grip Control After Shear Cut Using PLC Program

What is a pinch roller? A pinch roller is a rotating machine consisting mainly of two rollers arranged in parallel either horizontally or vertically depending on the process required to pull the material that is rolled in the mill. These two rollers are coupled to a variable speed electric motor which is constantly rotating at a preset speed that is synchronized with the speed of the preceding finishing roller located before the pinch roller.

Electrical Wiring Diagram Forward Reverse Motor Control and Power Circuit Using Mitsubishi PLC

This blog post is not only intended to provide a graphical illustration but will also explain the procedure and the operational concept involving the wiring principle of the forward reverse motor control circuit with the use of a PLC (Programmable Logic Controller).

A diagram of the ladder program contained inside the PLC memory specifically for this function is also included below to clearly illustrate the operational sequence for command execution of this motor control system.

Electrical Wiring Diagram Star Delta Control and Power Circuit Using Mitsubishi PLC Program

This article is intended to diagrammatically demonstrate the concept of the wiring principle of a star delta (wye delta) motor control and power circuit when using a PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) ladder program to control the switching of a 440 volts induction motor.
