PLC Based Industrial Automation & Troubleshooting
Course Duration: 80 hours
Regular Course Fee: 12,000 Tk
Course Overview:
PLC or programmable logic controllers are logic controllers that make use of logic to automate various processes. Nevonprojects constantly researches and brings you plc based projects for industrial automation as well as other monitoring and control processes. PLC automation projects have application in a wide variety of industries including manufacturing, packing, cleaning, transportation and more.
Industrial automation is the use of computers and robots to control industrial processes, like manufacturing, without significant human intervention. This course provides an overview of the topic, designed to help anyone hoping to enter the field in a role such as electrical or mechanical engineer, automation technician, or design manager.
