PLC Structure Text Generator
Recently I wrote a code generator for rotary index drive based control.
This generator helps generate the label declaration, manual control code, even the simple flow process for each station.
By all these process done, it generated more than half code in a cylinder based control project, all you need to do is to optmize the flow control for each station.
Generate code:
Generate workflow:
It’s all based on cylinders, so if we got a station with 3 cylinders like this:
| Name | Type | Group |
|---|---|---|
| Down | FbCylinder2x1y | St8 |
| Forward | FbCylinder2x1y | St8 |
| Clamp | FbCylinder0x1y | St8 |
it generate code below:
With flow process like this:
| Name | State | Group |
|---|---|---|
| Down | on | St1 |
| Clamp | on | St1 |
| Down | off | St1 |
| Forward | on | St1 |
| Down | on | St1 |
| Clamp | off | St1 |
| Down | off | St1 |
it generate code below:
