Project Steps
Scenario Analysis
3-Station Sorting Conveyor
# Conveyor Sorting System ## System Overview Automated 3-station sorting conveyor for product classification based on size detection. ## Process Flow 1. Products enter via infeed conveyor 2. Optical sensors detect product dimensions 3. PLC calculates routing based on size thresholds 4. Pneumatic diverters route products to stations: - Station 1: Small items (< 100mm) - Station 2: Medium items (100-250mm) - Station 3: Large items (> 250mm) ## Safety Requirements - Emergency stop circuit (Category 3, PLd) - Light curtains at each station - Safety interlocks on access doors - Two-hand control for manual mode ## Operating Modes - AUTO: Fully automatic operation - MANUAL: Step-by-step control - MAINTENANCE: Bypasses for service ## Performance Targets - Throughput: 30 items/minute - Sorting accuracy: 99.5%
The Traditional Way Is Broken
Weeks writing repetitive boilerplate code
Endless debugging cycles delaying projects
Scarce experienced PLC programmers
Budget overruns and missed deadlines

How PLCAssist Works
From your description to production-ready code - a systematic approach to PLC development
Scenario Analysis
Everything starts with your description. Simply tell PLCAssist about your automation process in plain language - no technical jargon required. Our AI analyzes your scenario and extracts all the key requirements, process flows, and operational logic.
Functional Block Diagram (FBD)
Based on your scenario, PLCAssist generates a detailed Functional Block Diagram. This visual representation shows how your system components interact, the control logic flow, and the relationships between different process stages. You can review and refine this before moving forward.
Hardware List Generation
PLCAssist automatically identifies all the hardware components needed for your automation system. This includes PLCs, sensors, actuators, communication modules, and safety devices. The hardware list is organized and ready for procurement or integration with your existing inventory.
I/O List Creation
A comprehensive Input/Output list is generated with all digital and analog signals mapped to their physical addresses. Each I/O point includes signal type, description, tag naming, and module assignment - ready for direct import into your PLC programming environment.
PLC Code Generation
Finally, PLCAssist generates 70-80% ready SCL/ST code blocks based on all the previous steps. The code follows IEC 61131-3 standards and industry best practices. You review the code, make any necessary adjustments, and deploy to your PLC platform with confidence.
