Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) are devices that were developed to replace the necessary sequential relay circuits for machine control. Over the last 10 years the role of the PLC has evolved into a major component within the automation and process industries. The demands on the PLC are no longer just simple sequencing but now include advanced controls such as PID control, complex maths algorithms and high speed motion control. PLCs are renowned for providing reliable, consistent, repeatable data at very high speeds.
Applied Integration are approved integrators for all the leading PLC manufactures enabling us to utilise a PLC system that not only suits the application but is also consistent with client’s standards. Applied Integration’s experience ranges from systems that contain a single CPU with localised I/O to High Availability/Fault Tolerant safety systems with thousands of distributed I/O signals.
The role of the PLC is no longer just a replacement for the relay panel but a valuable tool in the Integrators package.
