    CEO & Founder @ Corso Systems Building great tools for manufacturing companies to better serve their customers since 2007.

    Using sequencing logic in a PLC is a pretty powerful way to build complex processes. It is commonly used in motion control, recipe management, and anything where you need to meet a certain set of conditions at any given step before moving on to the next operation. I have used it quite a few times in my career for various applications and found it makes troubleshooting operations much easier than trying to program without using a sequencer. Typically I track what step I am in using an integer value, incrementing it when the conditions are met to move to the next step. In this tutorial Tim Wilborne goes through how to build sequencing logic in Connected Components Workbench. Highly recommend checking it out! https://lnkd.in/eTp2a53f

    Data-Driven Digital Transformation Leader - Founder @Joltek, SolisPLC | Co-Host @ManufacturingHub

    Many manufacturers struggle to define the role of edge computing in industrial automation, often asking, “Can’t we just do it on the PLC?” While PLCs are exceptional at controlling machines with precision and reliability, they fall short when handling large-scale data processing, advanced analytics, and scalable system integrations. This is where edge solutions come in—bridging the gap between OT and IT by providing real-time data filtering, storage, and contextualization before sending information to SCADA, MES, or cloud systems. One of the biggest lessons from real-world deployments is that PLC-based solutions, while cost-effective for small applications, quickly become inflexible and difficult to scale. A batching system case study highlights this challenge—initially built on a PLC, it later required an edge solution to enable multi-site expansion and remote accessibility. Similarly, vision systems often require edge computing for image buffering, AI-based defect detection, and troubleshooting historical data, which would otherwise overload a PLC or network infrastructure. Key edge computing solutions include: ✅ Data aggregation and filtering – Prevents unnecessary traffic and reduces latency. ✅ Scalability and interoperability – Enables seamless expansion across machines, lines, or plants. ✅ Advanced analytics and AI applications – Supports vision systems, predictive maintenance, and process optimization. ✅ Improved data security and accessibility – Keeps critical data on-prem while enabling cloud-based analytics when necessary. To deploy an effective edge strategy, manufacturers must carefully select hardware (Industrial PCs, edge-enabled PLCs, or rack servers) and software (for data contextualization, visualization, and integration). The key takeaway? The right edge solution depends on the application—while PLCs remain king for real-time control, edge computing is essential for modern, data-driven manufacturing. I put together an article on the topic and did my best to discuss some of my experience using various platforms throughout the years - Rockwell Automation, Siemens, Opto 22, Advantech, OnLogic, Phoenix Contact, Cognex Corporation, and many more. Let me know what you think!

    *******Systems Integration******* Let's just cut to the chase why do SIs exists? These are the companies that you could encounter a PLC in the wild from and these are the softwares you need to develop on them all. This is why SIs exists. Rockwell Automation Studio5000, RSLogix500, RSLogix5, Connected Components Workbench Siemens TIA Portal Emerson PAC Machine Edition Beckhoff TwinCAT Mitsubishi GXWorks3, GXWorks2 Schnieder Electric ProWORX 32 ABB Automation Builder Omron CX-Programmer Pilz PAS4000 Eaton EasySoft IDEC WindLDR Yokogawa Control Program Editor - Logic Designer for Stardom B&R Automation Studio Koyo KPP Koyo PLC Programming Software Delta Electronics ISPSoft Bosch Rexroth Phoenix Contact PLCnext Engineer Hitachi HX Codesys Panasonic Control FPWIN Pro Keyence KV Studio Toshiba nV-Tool LS Electric KGL-WIN and GM-WIN Honeywell MasterLogic PLC / SoftMaster And thats just PLCs. There's also local HMI touchscreens and robots galore. They make a new version of these softwares almost yearly so good luck with all the virtual machines it will take to host all that development software. Want to learn more? Come to OT SCADA CON

    You CANNOT learn PLC programming from a book or video. You must have a system to control. But you don't need hardware. This was built on free software.... #PLC #HMI #Automation #EasybuilderPro #Mechatronics
