Beckhoff TwinCAT 3 PLC Programming and Simulation Part 1

This is a comprehensive course for learning the basic level programing of Beckhoff  PLC in TwinCat3 software. You will learn the logic designing of TwinCat3 from scratch in a short period. No hardware equipment will be required to follow the course you will just have to install TwinCat3 software on you PC and you can do it. Fundamental programming of TwinCat3 will be covered step by step through video lectures and assignments.

This course will teach you the fundamentals of Structured Text programming language using TwinCAT 3 automation software. The TwinCAT software system turns almost any PC-based system into a real-time control with multiple PLC, NC, CNC, and/or robotics runtime systems in a single package. TwinCAT is a future-oriented software platform for machine builders and system integrators.

By the end of this course, you will learn all the basics on how to start developing your own application in structured text using TwinCAT 3 software, we will first go through the user interface and system configuration of TwinCAT. Then we will move on to variable declarations, standard data types, and user-defined data types such as Arrays, Structures, and Enumerations. We will also go through some conditional statements like IF and CASE instructions, FOR loops, While loops, and Repeat-Until loops. Additionally, we will go through Programming objects and some standard libraries, and finally how to communicate with a Beckhoff PLC. Along the way, you'll get hands-on experience with programming concepts through examples, assignments, and some quizzes.

The course is for you if you're a newcomer interested in TwinCAT 3 PLC programming, Beckhoff Automation PLCs or if you may have had some exposure to TwinCAT 2 the previous automation software from Beckhoff, and want to learn how to use the new generation of TwinCAT. Happy learning.
