Automated PLC control cabinets are control devices used in industrial automation control systems.

 They integrate components such as PLC controllers, power supplies, and communication interfaces, enabling automatic control and monitoring of industrial equipment. Widely applied in fields such as machinery, electricity, chemicals, metallurgy, textiles, papermaking, and wastewater treatment, they achieve automated control and optimized regulation of production processes.

PLCs offer advantages such as small size, light weight, easy installation, and simple maintenance.

 They can generally be freely combined and configured according to on-site conditions and customer needs to adapt to different scenarios. In this regard, Wutongbolian also provides compact, lightweight, easy-to-install, and simple-to-maintain PLC smart gateways that can be easily deployed inside PLC control cabinets. These gateways connect to PLCs for data collection and enable 5G/4G/WIFI/Ethernet internet access, providing API interfaces for integration with cloud platforms, upper computers, or other systems to achieve remote monitoring and management of automated PLC control cabinets. This offers cost-effective industrial IoT applications for equipment manufacturers, project owners, and system integrators.

Implemented Functions

1. Real-time Monitoring: The gateway can real-time collect and monitor the operating status, input/output signals, and communication status of PLC controllers, promptly detecting faults and sending alarm notifications (via WeChat, SMS, email, etc.).
2. Data Analysis: The system can analyze and process collected data, providing support for data querying, report generation, visual display, data analysis reports, and predictive maintenance.
3. Remote Control: The system enables remote control and monitoring of PLCs within control cabinets, including on/off control, parameter setting, and instrument data collection, facilitating remote operation and management.
4. Remote Maintenance: The system allows for remote maintenance of PLCs and gateways, including remote programming debugging and program uploading/downloading, enabling timely software version updates and fault repairs to enhance equipment maintenance efficiency and stability.

Application Scenarios

1. Power Industry: In the power industry, PLC control cabinets are widely used in key links such as power transmission, distribution systems, and power switchgear.

    Through real-time monitoring and control of power systems, they ensure the stability and safety of power transmission while effectively reducing power losses and equipment failure rates.

2. Chemical Industry: During chemical production processes, PLC control cabinets enable precise control and regulation of various equipment, sensors, and instrumentation involved in chemical reactions.

    By monitoring control parameters and equipment parameters, they enhance production efficiency, reduce environmental pollution, and improve production safety.

3. Machinery Manufacturing Industry: In smart manufacturing factories, PLC control cabinets achieve precise control of machine tools, robots, production lines, and other equipment. By monitoring equipment parameters and triggering fault alarms, they maintain a safe and stable production order, enabling automated and intelligent management of production processes.
