[Improvement Case] Key Points for Selecting Relay Panels and PLC Panels

In the case of a PLC board, if changes occur, it is possible to respond with just program modifications!

We would like to introduce an example of improvements in control panel design. The advantages of relay panels include a high overload capacity and a large switching load capacity, as well as stability against electrical noise. However, PLC control has become mainstream, and hardware modifications are often required during PLC changes, leading to various space issues. The advantages of PLCs include fast operating speeds, compact and lightweight designs, and ease of maintenance. Additionally, they can perform computational processing and communicate with other PLCs or PCs, allowing for changes to ladder circuits to be made solely through software modifications in some cases. 【Case Overview】 ■ Issues - In the case of relay panels, there is no space within the panel for mounting equipment if changes occur. ■ Results - In the case of PLC panels, circuits are created through programming, so if changes occur, they can be addressed with program modifications alone, resulting in better maintainability. *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.
