What Is PLC

The PLC was invented in response to the needs of the American automotive manufacturing

industry. Programmable logic controllers were initially adopted by the automotive industry

8/4/2019 About Godrej

where software revision replaced the re-wiring of hard-wired control panels when production

models changed.

Before the PLC, control, sequencing, and safety interlock logic for manufacturing automobiles

was accomplished using hundreds or thousands of relays, cam timers, and drum sequencers anddedicated closed-loop controllers. The process for updating such facilities for the yearly model

change-over was very time consuming and expensive, as electricians needed to individually

rewire each and every relay.

Digital computers, being general-purpose programmable devices, were soon applied to control of 

industrial processes. Early computers required specialist programmers, and stringent operating

environmental control for temperature, cleanliness, and power quality. Using a general-purpose

computer for process control required protecting the computer from the plant floor conditions.

An industrial control computer would have several attributes: it would tolerate the shop-floor

environment, it would support discrete (bit-form) input and output in an easily extensible

manner, it would not require years of training to use, and it would permit its operation to be

monitored. The response time of any computer system must be fast enough to be useful for

control; the required speed varying according to the nature of the process.

In 1968 GM Hydramatic (the automatic transmission division of General Motors) issued a

request for proposal for an electronic replacement for hard-wired relay systems. The winning

proposal came from Bedford Associates of Bedford, Massachusetts. The first PLC, designated

the 084 because it was Bedford Associates' eighty-fourth project, was the result. Bedford

Associates started a new company dedicated to developing, manufacturing, selling, and servicing

this new product: Modicon, which stood for MOdular DIgital CONtroller. One of the people who

worked on that project was Dick Morley, who is considered to be the "father" of the PLC. The

Modicon brand was sold in 1977 to Gould Electronics, and later acquired by German Company

AEG and then by French Schneider Electric, the current owner.

This siuaion was bnegan o change in 1970’s when mini compues became available. is easy

to perfor switching, time delays and logic in computer programmes. A computer programme is

alo easy to change when the comtrol problem changes and allows many more logical functions

that are possible with hardwired logic control. When reliable microprocessors are available in

1980’s wih cheap memoy and flexible inpu oupu feaues, hen he moden geneaion of 

PC’s began o emege.

One of the very first 084 models built is now on display at Modicon's headquarters in North

Andover, Massachusetts. It was presented to Modicon by GM, when the unit was retired after

nearly twenty years of uninterrupted service. Modicon used the 84 moniker at the end of its

product range until the 984 made its appearance.

The automotive industry is still one of the largest users of PLCs.

Programmable logic controller

Introduction

A programmable logic controller (PLC) or programmable controller is a digital computer used

for automation of electromechanicalprocesses, such as control of machinery on factory assembly

lines, amusement rides, or light fixtures. PLCs are used in many industries and machines. Unlike

general-purpose computers, the PLC is designed for multiple inputs and output arrangements,

extended temperature ranges, immunity to electrical noise, and resistance to vibration and

impact. Programs to control machine operation are typically stored in battery-backed or non-

volatile memory. A PLC is an example of a hard real time system since output results must be

produced in response to input conditions within a bounded time, otherwise unintended operation

will result

Early PLCs were designed to replace relay logic systems. These PLCs were programmed in

"ladder logic", which strongly resembles a schematic diagram of relay logic. This program

notation was chosen to reduce training demands for the existing technicians. Other early PLCs

used a form of instruction list programming, based on a stack-based logic solver.

One of the very first 084 models built is now on display at Modicon's headquarters in North

Andover, Massachusetts. It was presented to Modicon by GM, when the unit was retired after

nearly twenty years of uninterrupted service. Modicon used the 84 moniker at the end of its

product range until the 984 made its appearance.

The automotive industry is still one of the largest users of PLCs.
