Hey guys
I have a project that I am about to start working on.
I am going to need a small level PLC to implement the design to control a few very small motors to move conveyers and a few pounds of weight, as well as a few various sensors.
The machine will need to do various things based off certain input commands, but they will all be very similar, such as operating the motors for different amounts of time and changing commands when certain sensors do certain things. Touch screen input would be a plus.
I have absolutely no knowledge of PLCs at all, so I could use some help here.
What kind/brand of equipment should I be looking for? I am very limited with programming, so it needs to be fairly straight forward, and ideally somewhat of a "drag and drop" type of programming similar to Simulunk, as opposed to C.
Any answer, no matter how simple and basic will help me a lot.
Thanks
