PLC Suitcase Trainer

Product Logo Product Image

This unit from LJ Create teaches students the basics of PLCs – it is designed to sort metal discs one at a time, checking them for a machined hole and dispensing them into one of two bins based upon programming logic. The supplied STEM learning materials have been designed to provide practical, real-world problem solving tasks and activities, while the convenient suitcase makes it perfect for students to check in and out to learn from home.

The speed of the sorting disc is controlled using an analog input signal. The position of the sorting disc can be determined using the built-in rotary encoder. Students develop their understanding of PLC programming using LJ Create’s unique software simulation of an industrial work-cell. The trainer is built into a mil-spec waterproof case for ease of transportation and shipping.
