Lab Assignment 2
Using either FluidSIM 4 or Automation Studio or any web based/app based PLC programming
software, design the program for the following scenarios:
(You may use either block diagram, ladder diagram or statement list)
1. Scenario A
Turn on a lamp/buzzer when an (ON) button is pressed. The lamp/buzzer must stay on until
an (OFF) button is pressed.
2. Scenario B
A conveyor belt is carrying product to a boxing station. When five products have passed
through a sensor, a cylinder will extend and push the five products into a box. Sketch the
conveyor system and the boxing station (inclusive of the sensor and cylinder). Design the PLC
program for the sensor and cylinder. Assume that the conveyor is running automatically
without any PLC control.
3. Scenario C
A drilling station involve work piece being clamped by a clamping cylinder. Then the drilling
cylinder will extend and drill the work piece for 5 seconds. After 5 seconds, the drilling
cylinder will retract until its fully retracted. Then the clamping cylinder will release the work
piece so that a worker can remove the work piece from the station. Design a PLC program
for the scenario.
