| Abstract: | The textbook Automation with Programmable Logic Controllers covers essential concepts and practical methods in industrial automation, with a strong focus on Siemens hardware and software. The textbook focuses primarily on the SIMATIC S7-300 family of controllers, which still represent the widely used technology in many industrial environments. Special attention is given to the Statement List (STL) programming language, offering deep insights into how PLCs operate. The content is structured into 17 chapters, ranging from automation fundamentals to real-world industrial case studies. The book is intended for engineering students, practicing professionals, and anyone seeking to acquire or enhance knowledge in PLC technology. With its practical orientation and regionally relevant focus, the publication fills a gap in the existing literature and serves as a valuable resource for both education and professional development in the field of industrial automation. |
