Let's say there is more than one way to Program. Writing logic to a PLC is programming. It's not the whole program but it's still programming. Yes it would be very time consuming to write the whole program before start up. But there's alot of changes that have to be programmed at start up. The computer you see in the video is the computer he makes all the programs on. So in a sense making changes to a program is programming. I digress. Lol
@@alliancetechnh3368 you have to simulate the program before it’s implemented. But if you’re making changes or adjustments like I do sometimes. I’ll add them and make it better.
@greenspacemonki4 nope. We already did that. He's changing the program, thus programming the pumps to cycle on and off correctly when cavitation occurs. The initial program is set at the beginning of start up. But the system at this time is already running. But you'll think that programming could only happen in a sacred place. You should check your programming Rockwell Automation books and realize that most of the programming fixes happen in the field. Thus Programming, I digress. 😆
Dude I do refrigeration but this stuff you are doing looks so cool, how does one go about jumping from commercial to epic industrial refrigeration stuff like this?
Ah, what I used to do. Happily retired these days. :) Although I still help friends out. We were working on a Fanuc robot that loads and unloads a Mazak Integrex lathe yesterday. The PLC is a Compact Logix, and the HMI software is the free and outstanding AdvancedHMI. We are also working on a conversion from a Compact Logix to a Turck TBEN PLC for use in Antarctica. The reason for the conversion is to reduce the size of the equipment since anything electronic has to be removed from the machine and stored above -40C. The Compact Logix was too big, and the university was getting tired of paying the "Rockwell tax". :) CODESYS was easy to learn and use, but up next is the HMI programming. We'll see how that goes. :)
That sounds so awesome , right now I’m learning to program using TOYOPUC with Toyota, it’s pretty straightforward but there are so many different ways to program the same thing! … hardwiring did NOT prepare me for this kind of circuitry 😅😂
@@yungtman6239 Interesting, I wasn't aware of Toyota being in Texas. Kentucky and Alabama I knew about. I had also heard of Toyota and their "home-grown" PLC but have never seen it. Some PLCs are notorious for being difficult to learn (looking at you Siemens and Schneider) as well as being quirky and difficult for no good reason (90/30s, pick your version of the programming language, they all sucked. Automate was a knuckleheaded thing as well). And you will have to learn new PLCs at some point so keep an open mind. Knowing the electrical side (as well as the electronic side of things) is such a great help not just with troubleshooting, but knowing how it is supposed to be installed, and being able to more easily work with the maintenance guys. I had served in the apprenticeship in Colorado and got both my Journeyman and Master electrician licenses. I never had a problem working with maintenance or the contractors wherever I went. You're in for a fun ride, enjoy it!
Im an industrial maintenance tech. For a automotive manufacturer. I am in the process of learning every day on the job for over 3.5 years now. I love it even tho it is one hell of a challenge sometimes. I can get online and connect to about 40 different machines at my own will. From slc 500s and panel builder 32 up to the newer compact logics, studio 5000, panel view, factory talk, etc. We have a lot of this stuff laying around and I’ve built a trainer out of it for practice. I am starting to fool with that also. Do you guys have any suggestions for me? I have a fair amount of welding certs and fanuc certs an associates in welding as well ass some credits towards a second major in automation. My goal is to get as much knowledge on the job before I start plc classes in January. I think I should be ok and even better maybe have a little bit of a leg up as far as the plc class is going to go.? Im chasing an engineering position and want it sooner than later! Any input or suggestions feel free. Thanks
That’s a field? 🤔 This is a super interesting field and I was wondering if there were any schools that taught this. I will def search that topic. Hopefully I can find a school that’s relatively close to where I live that teaches this.
Any advice for how to get into the field… when you live in an area that doesn’t have many educational institutions where I can learn hands on? I have a good bit of mechanical experience and I’ve also worked as a plant technician the past 2+ years. I do have a fair bit of experience but officially I don’t have experience in this field and I’m not sure on how to actually get into it. Are there places that will hire you and train you in this field? Or is this something I would have to go to a school to learn?
Refrigeration or PLC programming? Both take a great deal of knowledge. Most companies will hire you if you have your universal EPA license. They have some online training to acquire this. Once you have this license, you're off to the races. There's programs to teach and train you in the refrigeration field. RETA has lots of training and books to guide you to success. This industry is amazing. Programming is another amazing field. They have Rockwell Automation classes online and tons of apps to teach you the basics of programming. Whatever you decide, you will be in a wonderful field of occupation.
Any work out there I got experience? I’m currently installing PLCs in all the Walmart DCs. Currently making around 1800$ a week. I’m free after July 10th if you got something around those dates.
Please email me your info and I'll pass it on to management. We are in need of programmers, but you'll need to understand Industrial Refrigeration systems entirely to be able to construct a program of controlling a Refrigeration system. We have panel builders build our PLC cabinets, and we perform installation and have contracted electricians run all wires to the desired locations. Being able to follow strict electrical drawings and diagnosing field issues on start up is required.
Well he has his laptop that's has Rockwell Automation and studio 5000. We have our key. So once we install the program from the laptop to the new PLC we have to perform additional programming to fit the customers ever changing needs to mold the system to its perfection. In most people's mind programming can only happen somewhere else. But when performing a build up system. Changes need to be programmed do to complications with other processes and or new just added equipment.
@@alliancetechnh3368 Ah okay, it looked like a Wago to me. Very interesting to see your PLC solutions. In my studies we work/learn mainly with Siemens, Beckhoff and Wago. Great channel, I subscribe

Using Rockwell Automation to program isn't super easy. But they have lots of programs you can purchase to learn how it's done. But actually understanding the process of Industrial Refrigeration will take some time to fully comprehend. I'm not sure on what program is the best but just by a Google search you can see lots of schools and online programs. Thanks for your comments.
Rockwell classes are like $600 per and that's possibly with a discount my company gets with all the commercial licenses. I've taken a couple, powerflex 750 drives and servo controls. Honestly just going thru the datasheet and playing around with one, test programs, and gaining an understanding of how they tick pays off way more than any class. Good luck!
Yes. PLC, input cards, output cards, backplane, Ac to DC power supply, network cards, TCP to mod buss adapter, battery back up, HMI panel, a whole bunch of terminal blocks, wire, Cat 5 ethernet cable, Belden cable., Breakers and Fuses. Might be something I'm missing but that's it for now.
