Programmable Logic Controllers

by Frank D. Petruzella

Now in four-color, this outstanding text for the first course in programmable logic controllers (PLCs) focuses on how PLCs work and gives students practical information about installing, programming, and maintaining PLC systems. It's not intended to replace manufacturer's or user's manuals, but rather complements and expands on the information contained in these materials. All topics are covered in small segments. Students systematically carry out a wide range of generic programming exercises and assignments. All of the information about PLCs has been updated.

this book gives me a knowledge about plc.

mmg paham.. ^_^

[Stefanie Dugger]

Gives a good introduction to PLCs, including some chapters on electromechanical devices and basic digital electronic information like integrated circuits. While the content is well structured, the writing could be better organized for more fluid reading; in addition, more advanced applications for PLCs like integrating with different programming programs is not covered. This book will best serve as an introduction or as source material for someone who works with PLCs and wants a refresher on a specific item beyond what Allen Bradley provides. I would recommend that this book be paired with Allen Bradley/Rockwell official publications in order to fill out more details beyond what the book covers.

Too easy.

This is the best book on Programmable Logic Controllers.

A good introductory text for PLC programming and the Allen-Bradley ecosystem.
