Hi all,
I'm sure this question has been asked before so bare with me.
Have been writing plc programs for pick and place machines and machinery automation a few years now but want to expand into 2 axis motion control with stepper motors, pid loops, recipes etc but do not have the experience. What I have learnt so far has been through reading programming manuals and trial and error.
Should i go to tech college to get more training or am i better off building a test station with some encoders, stepper motors etc and just writing trial programs till i get it right. The nearest college to do plc training is about 1 1/2 hours from where i live with very limited coarses.
Thanks for your views
