Programmable Logic Controller (PLC)
The mainstay of today’s industrial control systems is the Programmable Logic Controller (PLC), a small computer-like device that monitors and controls most of the equipment used in manufacturing, processing and factory settings. Maintenance and operation of these devices, which are used in every aspect of industry to expand and enhance production, is the job of the PLC specialist, a highly skilled member of any industrial team. Through the Programmable Logic Control Specialization Program, offered in partnership by Alvin Community College and Texas State Technical College, students can take the knowledge gained in the ACC Industrial Electrical Technician Program, or from real-world experience, to the next level of professional development.
This two-month, hands-on program is designed to assist students to comprehend the fundamentals of PLCs and their systems. Students will work through various exercises designed to provide real-world experience of control applications. General troubleshooting procedures and techniques are stressed, and students are instructed in how to analyze PLC problems systematically using hardware and software aids.
