Educational Platform Dedicated to the Study of Programmable Logic Controllers and the Human-Machine Interface

The paper presents the use of the TM221CE16R and TM241CEC24R programmable machines and the HMISTU855 machine-machine interface. The Learning Platform allows for the study of programming differences between SoMachine Basic and SoMachine V4.3 software. Another aspect is the programming of HMI with Vijeo Designer 6.2 Software. The set of sensors, the programmable automatic and the user interface involve the creation of various applications. The educational platform monitors the status of the input / output variables and provides solutions for the study, simulation and optimization of production processes.
