About the Skill

PLC Gurugulam, which was established with a cost estimation of Rs.1 crore, is an interdisciplinary, industry-backed centre focused on developing “Skill Excellence in PLC” for academia and industry. This lab intends to bridge the gap between industry requirements and technical education, provide solutions that align technical institutes more with industry needs, and make engineering graduate students industry-ready. This lab comprises highly advanced industrial standard controllers like PLC (S71200/S7300/S71500) and HMI to learn, design, communicate, and interface advanced controllers with real-time applications. This centre assists our students and faculty members in learning ways to configure and programme PLCs from various manufacturers such as Siemens, Delta, AB, and Mitsubishi. Also, it develops applications for controlling various industry operations such as servo and VFD. This allows them to be trained both theoretically and practically in accordance with standards, thereby expanding their knowledge of Industrial Automation.
