Our Best Micro800 PLC Training with an Allen Bradley Micro850 PLC, Powerflex 525 AC drive, Panelview 800 HMI, and YRG Linear Actuator.

This comprehensive training solution is perfect for students, technicians, and engineers seeking to deepen their understanding of programmable logic controllers and how they integrate with the rest of the devices on the manufacturing floor. In addition to learning PLC programming, you will learn how to wire and diagnose problems in industrial control systems. All circuits in these self paced lessons are 24VDC.

• Micro850 PLC includes 14 discrete 24VDC inputs, 10 discrete 24VDC outputs, 2 4-20mA analog inputs, and 2 4-20mA analog outputs.  It uses the free Allen Bradley Connected Components Workbench software.

• Panelview 800 HMI uses the HMI lessons of Connected Components Workbench.

• Powerflex 525 AC drive is wired to the 3 phase fan and communicates with the PLC over Ethernet.

• Linear Actuator for Motion Control. Using Yamaha’s Add On Instructions (AOI) for Rockwell Automation’s Studio 5000, you can have your motion controller integrated into a Compactlogix or Controllogix PLC in less than 30 minutes. Note for the Allen Bradley Kinetix Users. We have used Allen Bradley Kinetix servo drives and built trainers with them but found this setup to be easier to use.
