Riassunto

Modern industrial automation increasingly combines traditional PLC engineering with flexible embedded computing, open software, industrial networking, and intelligent edge systems. Industrial PLC Programming with Raspberry Pi explores how Raspberry Pi-based platforms and OpenPLC can be used to learn, prototype, and develop modern control applications using Ladder Logic, IEC 61131-3 concepts, industrial I/O, Modbus communications, process automation, and structured control engineering practices.

This book approaches Raspberry Pi PLC development from an engineering perspective, not as a collection of hobby projects. It emphasizes reliable control architecture, deterministic thinking, interlocks, fault handling, commissioning, maintainability, industrial communication, and safe system design. It also recognizes the practical boundaries between general-purpose computing and dedicated industrial or safety-rated PLC systems, helping readers make informed engineering decisions.

Beginning with PLC architecture and industrial control fundamentals, this practical guide progresses through OpenPLC configuration, industrial digital and analog I/O, Ladder Logic, IEC 61131-3 programming concepts, timers, counters, function blocks, machine sequencing, process control, Modbus RTU and TCP, HMI and SCADA integration, diagnostics, commissioning, and lifecycle maintenance.

Readers progress from core PLC concepts to complete applications involving conveyors, pumps, tank-level management, HVAC, process monitoring, sensors, actuators, alarms, and scalable manufacturing control.

What's Inside:

1. Raspberry Pi-based PLC architecture and industrial control fundamentals
2. OpenPLC installation, configuration, and deployment concepts
3. Ladder Logic and IEC 61131-3 programming principles
4. Digital and analog I/O integration
5. Industrial sensors, actuators, motors, valves, and field devices
6. Timers, counters, interlocks, permissives, and machine sequencing
7. 4-20 mA and 0-10 V process instrumentation concepts
8. Modbus RTU, Modbus TCP, and industrial networking
9. HMI and SCADA integration
10. Alarm handling, diagnostics, troubleshooting, and fault recovery
11. PLC commissioning, testing, maintenance, and documentation
12. Real-world conveyor, pump, tank-level, HVAC, and manufacturing projects

Designed for automation engineers, controls engineers, PLC programmers, electrical and electronics engineers, mechatronics professionals, systems integrators, Raspberry Pi developers, engineering students, technical educators, and advanced makers who want to understand PLC programming and industrial control beyond basic tutorials.

PLC programming remains fundamental to manufacturing, process automation, machine control, smart factories, and Industry 4.0. By focusing on enduring control principles alongside modern open automation technologies, this book builds skills that can remain useful as Raspberry Pi hardware, OpenPLC, industrial I/O, and automation platforms continue to evolve.

Move beyond basic GPIO projects and develop a deeper understanding of professional industrial control. Industrial PLC Programming with Raspberry Pi provides a practical path from PLC fundamentals and Ladder Logic to connected, maintainable, real-world automation systems. Build your knowledge of OpenPLC, IEC 61131-3, process automation, Modbus, industrial I/O, and control engineering - and start applying those skills to your next automation project.
