Features: To cultivate students' ability to read and analyze electrical control circuits and programs, as well as to design electrical control systems and devices, this book introduces the composition principles, circuit analysis, and basic design methods of traditional relay and contactor control circuits. To develop students' application skills in Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs), the book systematically covers the basic components, working principles, and application technologies of PLCs. Taking small PLCs from Mitsubishi and Siemens as examples, it provides an in-depth exploration of PLC composition and working principles, programming software components and I/O systems, special function I/O modules and their applications, programming languages and instruction systems, programming methods and software, PLC networking and communication technologies, and the design and application of PLC control systems. Additionally, drawing on the author's extensive experience and achievements in PLC application development, numerous practical examples are provided to illustrate the application methods of the aforementioned content.
The book is divided into eleven chapters, with the first eight chapters covering theoretical teaching content and the last three chapters focusing on practical teaching content. Based on educational principles and the need to cultivate engineering application skills, the book integrates theoretical teaching, classroom exercises, course design, experiments, and engineering practice. This book primarily serves as a textbook for industrial automation, electrical engineering and automation, mechanical engineering and automation, and mechatronics-related majors in general higher education institutions. It is also suitable for use in higher vocational and technical colleges, as well as for training materials and reference books for electrical technicians.
