Industry 4.0, PLC and VFD wiring and programming made easy with this step-by-step guide that simplifies complex topics in industrial automation Key Features * Everything you need to know about Industrial Automation and Electronics * Learn how to build and monitor a project using SCADA and HMI * Explore emerging wireless technologies such as 5G to build smart factories Book Description By automating processes, industrial automation has become a "Solution" for all types of industries to reduce manual labour inputs and costs. Take a look at this book to discover the abilities you'll need to become an authority in industrial automation. This book will begin by defining Industrial Automation and describing its various forms, levels, and advantages. Various switches, sensors, and actuators will also be discussed. Next, you will learn about the Direct On-Line (DOL) starter and its accompanying components such as the circuit breaker, contactor, and overload relay. As you progress, you'll learn more about VFDs, their parameter settings, and how to wire and programme them for induction motor control. You'll also be able to run simulations to test your software to see if it's working or not. The book also includes a step-by-step guide that introduces other technologies including HMI and SCADA, as well as temperature, pressure, level, and flow measurement and transmitters. The final chapter contains crucial information on Industry 4.0 (Smart Factory) that will be helpful to individuals who need to comprehend the technology. By the end of this book, you will have gained knowledge right from basic to advanced levels of Industrial Automation and be able to design basic automated machines using sensors, actuators, and PLC.
