Hi everybody!
I am an experienced electrical/electronics technician with 6 years of maintenance experience, and my boss at the factory recently suggested that I should start learning PLCs so I can take over the automation maintenance all by my own team. I have a lot of time to prepare for this position. What is the optimal way to start? We are working with OMRON equipment.
I found some courses that look interesting, so my training plan is:
1 finish the free courses
- the ones from Omron Learning website
- the one from LinkedIn learning "Learning PLC Ladder Logic Course by: Zahraa Khalil"
2 finish the payed courses on UDEMY
- Learn 5 PLCs in a Day-AB, Siemens, Schneider, Omron & Delta
- PLC Programming From Scratch (PLC I)
- Practical PLC Programming (PLC II)
- Process Visualization with HMI / SCADA (PLC III)
- Advanced Programming Paradigms (PLC IV)
- From Wire to PLC , A Bootcamp In Industrial Automation
- Factory Automation using PLC Logics
That being said, can you suggest me more courses / textbooks / training programs?
BTW your forum has been a good source of information for the last few days that I have took to research the topic, so I want to thank you all for providing all of this information.
God bless you all!
