The key core component commonly encountered in automation equipment is also the PLC core component CPU. If you want to enter automation equipment, you need to have a deeper understanding. The picture shows one of the Siemens CPU series. It is also the most commonly used type of industrial equipment. The following can be understood:
S7-1500 series: high-performance solution that supports complex industrial automation tasks.
The Siemens CPU module is the core component of Siemens programmable logic controller (PLC), responsible for program execution, data processing, and system control, serving as the "brain" of the PLC.
Siemens CPU modules perform core computing and control functions in PLC systems, similar to the central processing unit of a computer. The main functions include:
Program execution: Run user written control logic (such as ladder diagrams, functional blocks, etc.). 1
Data processing: Complete mathematical operations, logical judgments, and data storage.
Module coordination: Manage the collaborative work of I/O modules, communication modules, and other components.
