Authors and Course Description

PLC Automation is a small business with offices in Manvel, Texas and Louisville, Kentucky. We are focused on PLC based process control and automation. The two principles of our business (Drs. Eman Kamel and Khaled Kamel) have a combined 50 years of experience in PLC software development and customized training in a variety of industrial applications including flexible manufacturing automation, chemical process control, wastewater treatment, and utilities process control. We also published with McGraw Hills industry leading textbooks in PLC process control for the Rockwell Allen Bradley and the Siemens infrastructures.

The PLC Automation online training consists of six sections, each having an average of ten modules. The training is designed for the LogixPro 500 or the PLCLogix 5000 simulation software but can be used with other AB compatible PLC development software. All modules’ programs, documentation, and hands-on recordings are implemented for both the Allen Bradley RSLogix 500 and RSLogix 5000. Completion of this course will enable students to master the concepts of PLC process control; design, implementation, trouble shooting, and technical documentation.

Course Audience

· Engineering / Technical Colleges Instructors.

· Students and Beginners seeking PLC training.

· Control / Instrumentation Engineers / Technicians.

· Process Engineers; Electrical, Chemical, Mechanical, and others.

· Maintenance and Industrial Automation Professionals.
