OBJECTIVES
 Investigate well-defined problems; locate and search relevant codes and catalogues; and perform standard
tests and measurements.
 Using the mechanical system, actuator control, and sensory devices, apply the fundamental concept of
industrial automation.

EQUIPMENT

 Automation Studio Software

 PLC software

SAFETY
 Assemble the device on a flat, hard, stable surface, such as a tabletop.
 When designing the circuit, make sure to use the appropriate components.
 CASE STUDY 1:

Question 1
Electro Pneumatic with PLC control

i. Refer to Figure 1, design a ladder logic diagram to control an actuator, cylinder automatically.
ii. Identify the input and output of the operation.
iii. Write the observation, the simulation of the PLC.

Figure 1: An electro-pneumatic circuit with ladder logic diagram to extend and retract automatically a
cylinder

Answer :
Explanation:

-Apabila I0.00 ON arus akan mengalir ke internal relay W10.00 dan internal relay akan energized maka timer
akan “ON” selama 1 saat dan T100 energized , maka Q100.00 akan ON.
-Apabila I0.01 ON maka tiada arus akan mengalir ke internal relay W10.00 dan internal relay akan tidak
energized dan timer akan OFF dan T100 juga tidak energized , maka Q100.00 akan OFF.
 Question 2
Two Directional Control of Traffic Light

Refer to Figure 2, design the PLC program for the traffic light system with the following condition:

i. Design the ladder logic diagram using Automation Studio software.

ii. Identify the input and output of the operation.
iii. Write the observation, the simulation of the PLC.

Figure 2: Traffic Light Sequence

ANSWER & EXPLANATION

Input:Push Button Start
Push Button Stop
Output:OUT1(RED)
OUT2(GREEN)
OUT3(YELLOW)
OUT4(GREEN)
OUT5(YELLOW)
OUT6(RED)
OBSERVATION
When you press the button, the electric flow begins to contact E5_1.IN0 and energise
OUT0.After that, Time On Delay (TONNE) will be activated and will count from 0 to 30
seconds for OUT1 (RED), while Timer On Delay (GREEN) will be activated for 25
seconds.When the timer runs out, OUT1 and OUT4 are turned off.Next, the Timer On Delay for
OUT 2 (GREEN) will activate for 25 seconds, and the Timer On Delay for OUT 5 (YELLOW)
will activate for 5 seconds.These two timers will be turned off, and the Timer On Delay for OUT
3 (YELLOW) will be activated for 5 seconds, and Timer On Delay for OUT 6 (RED) will be
activated for 30 seconds.This cycle will continue until the Stop button is pressed.

CONCLUSION
Finally, PLC timers are essential tools for time-based control in industrial automation.
Understanding the various types of timers and experimenting with advanced programming techniques can help you realise
the full potential of PLC systems and automation studio software. and push your programming abilities to the next level.
