Nowadays, knowing how to use an industrial or electrical control and automation software means many positive things for any student, programmer or engineer in the sector. The most successful large companies of the 21st century are using PLCs to control their production and industrial plants, and every day they are looking for more and more people who can do this type of work. But... I know what you're thinking. You don't know how this kind of thing works and you think it's very complicated. But believe me, you still have time to learn, and you are also in the right place!
In this course you will learn how to use the Siemens S7-1200 PLC from scratch, through the TIA Portal platform. But... what is Siemens S7-1200? Well, very easy. It is a compact controller (PLC) that makes it easy to perform simple, yet highly accurate, productive tasks. With it, you will quickly solve PLC programming problems, and you will carry out with great versatility everything you need to control and automate small machines up to an entire industrial plant.
My name is Laureano Boira, I am an industrial engineer and I have been using Siemens for years and conducting PLC programming, as well as teaching about its use. In this time I have realized that every day the use of a fast, complete, practical, flexible and scalable tool is more necessary, and that is why it is not surprising that today the PLC 1200 is one of the most used and demanded in the industrial and electrical sector. This great adaptability makes its link to the software platforms (Simatic Step 7 or TIA Portal) easy to learn and easy to navigate.
For this reason, I felt the need to create quality content on the subject, and thus facilitate and above all speed up and accelerate the learning process, compressing all the content in less than 2 hours. Although this is "only" a basic course, it will help you put into practice the essential tools and functions to get the most out of your Siemens S7-1200 and the TIA Portal.
The important thing about the course is that you will not only watch and listen, but you will also do it yourself. Thanks to the exercises at the end of the course and the real-time solutions, you will be able to put into practice everything you have learned and you will be able to perform different types of control problems yourself. And of course, at the end of the course you will have acquired knowledge, among other things, in topics such as the following:
For what, how, and why Siemens S7-1200?
Fundamentals of PLC programming and its applications in industry
Interface, link and full use of the TIA Portal platform with the controller
Hierarchical position of 1200 PLCs in the Siemens S7 PLC range
Logic of the S7-1200 PLC, understanding its entire structure, the process and the reason for each action
Practical problems, from simpler to more advanced and much more
This course is perfect for people who have heard of Siemens and PLC, but do not know how to use it and need to improve their programming and handling. What I mean is that it is completely suitable for beginners and people who have no idea of the subject, since everything will be explained from scratch. So don't be afraid, because as I have already told you, this is the time to learn a skill that companies seek more and more every day, and if you don't believe me, you can check it yourself by searching the Internet!
If it was not enough and you are still not convinced, I will be at your disposal and I will answer all the questions you want in the shortest possible time. Learning Siemens S7-1200 has never been easier than now. What are you waiting to join? I really want to be your instructor!
