Schneider PLC Insights

What is Schneider PLC?

Schneider Electric Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) are industrial computers used for automation of electromechanical processes, such as control of machinery on factory assembly lines, amusement rides, or lighting fixtures. They use a programmable memory to store instructions and specific functions, including on/off control, timing, counting, sequencing, and data manipulation, to control machines and processes.
