Please can anyone help me on programmable logic controller tutorial or even where I can buy both the tutorial and simulator.

I haven't tried this myself, so I don't know if it works.
A PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) is a digital computer used to control and automate industrial processes. It uses a programmable memory to store and execute instructions, allowing it to monitor and control various inputs and outputs.
There are many online resources available for learning about PLCs, including tutorials, videos, and forums. It is recommended to start by learning the basics of ladder logic programming, as this is the most commonly used language for PLCs. You can also look for hands-on workshops or courses offered by technical schools or equipment manufacturers.
Some basic knowledge of electrical circuits and programming concepts can be helpful, but it is not necessary to have prior experience with PLCs. Many tutorials and simulators are designed for beginners and can guide you through the learning process.
Yes, there are several free PLC simulators available online, such as PLC Fiddle, PLC Ladder Simulator, and LogixPro. These simulators allow you to practice programming and testing without the need for physical hardware.
While PLC tutorials and simulators are a great way to learn and practice, they should not be used for actual industrial automation processes. It is important to have proper training and experience before implementing PLCs in real-world applications to ensure safety and efficiency.
