Modbus protocol is an industrial standard widely used for communication between electronic devices, especially in industrial automation systems. Due to its simplicity and flexibility, Modbus has become one of the preferred protocols for control and monitoring equipment in various industries. This article will show you how to communicate with devices that support the Modbus protocol […]

Industrial automation relies heavily on Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) to streamline complex processes. While mastering the basics is essential, advancing your PLC programming skills can elevate efficiency, reduce downtime, and future-proof your systems. Here are 10 advanced tips to help you dominate industrial automation. 1. Leverage Structured Text (ST) for Complex Logic Why it matters: While ladder logic is

Introduction: WWDC 2024 and the AI LeapAt Apple’s 2024 Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC), AI took center stage, with updates to Core ML, Create ML, and new hardware accelerators like the Neural Engine. These advancements emphasize privacy, on-device processing, and seamless integration across Apple’s ecosystem. For PLC engineers, this opens doors to innovate in industrial automation

In the world of PLC programming, newbies are often confused by all the terms and conventions. PLC, or programmable logic controller, is known as the “brain” of industrial automation, but it is not easy to master it thoroughly. Today, we are going to discuss a confusing and controversial concept: Why is the emergency stop button

In the field of industrial automation, PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) is like the brain of the factory, and the PLC bus is the nervous system that connects each “brain” and “body”. For many newcomers, the world of PLC bus seems complex, as if entering a variety of cable forest. Don’t be afraid, today Unionscience Technology

In the previous article, we explored the world of PLCs (Programmable Logic Controllers) in several articles. There is no doubt that PLCs are the unsung heroes of industrial automation systems, responsible for scheduling and performing complex operations. But even the most powerful PLCs need a user-friendly interface to help operators interact with them – and

For PLC engineers, the right tools don’t just save time—they transform chaos into clarity, troubleshoot nightmares in minutes, and turn complex projects into smooth workflows. Whether you’re wrangling ladder logic or integrating IIoT systems, here’s your ultimate toolkit to work smarter, faster, and future-proof your skills. 1. Software Superstars a. IDE (Integrated Development Environment) Suites b. Simulation

If you’ve spent years behind the controls of heavy machinery or troubleshooting factory floors, you’ve likely heard the term “PLC programming” thrown around. But what exactly is it, and why does it matter to seasoned pros like you? Let’s strip away the jargon and break down PLC programming into practical, actionable insights tailored for industrial veterans. PLC

Struggling with the maze of inverter parameters? You’re not alone. While inverters are vital for controlling motor speed and energy efficiency, their complex settings often leave users overwhelmed. This guide cuts through the confusion, offering a clear roadmap to optimize your inverter setup without the headaches. Let’s dive in! Why Inverter Parameters Matter Inverters convert DC power

The Modbus protocol has been a cornerstone of industrial automation for decades, enabling communication between devices like PLCs, sensors, and SCADA systems. However, its simplicity and age make it a prime target for cyberattacks in today’s hyper-connected industrial environments. While Modbus’s lack of built-in security was once overlooked, rising cyber threats have thrust its vulnerabilities
