This course focuses on PLC programming of the TwinCAT 3 system. Participants will learn about PLC programming. The training is based on the IEC 61131-3 standard. Advanced options such as object-oriented extensions of the IEC standard, module generation in C++ or high-level language visualization interfaces are deliberately not included. Optionally, an additional day of training is booked for basis of axis commissioning with TwinCAT NC PTP.
