DEVELOPMENT OF SMART PLC TRAINING KIT

Abstract

Our group has chosen the title Development Smart PLC Training Kit for our final year project. Development Smart PLC Training Kit is a training kit that can help and share to students to find out information about PLC and IOT that we have improved. Based on this training kit, target users consisting of students are expected to improve their knowledge of programmer logic controller (PLC). Students can add knowledge with training kits easily without using many other components. The problem faced by students about this plc training kit is that the first is the difficulty in understanding the basic concepts of lessons taught by teachers. Secondly, the existing training kits cannot meet the needs of course content and misunderstandings among students due to limited training kits. The last is the Lack of training kits in the laboratory. The results obtained from the methodology used are from feedback from users collected through qualitative and quantitative methods such as questionnaires, interviews, and so on. The result is that more than 90% agreed to create this Smart PLC Training Kit in their place of study. The PLC Training Kit that we have improved can attract students to learn plc because it does not require any wires to connect the input and output of the plc and we have provided a module for the use of this PLC training kit compared to the existing plc training kit before which has non -detailed modules. In conclusion, this PLC training kit can help students and instructors to more easily understand the basic concepts of plc in detail by using the concept of the Internet of Things (IoT) so that they better understand clearly.
