Abstract
Nowadays, with the development of information technology, real-time and reliable devices have been developed for users and system control. Commonly used ones are programmable logic controller and operator panels. Programming of these devices, learning the communication with the controller and the hardware installations have gained great importance especially for technical staff and engineering students. In this study, automation and control technique training sets were developed for the applications used widely in industrial applications. In the training sets, programmable logic controller (PLC) and human machine interface (HMI) were used for the control. With the training sets both automation education and control techniques such as P, PI, and PID are compared. At the same time, skills and logical programming abilities of the students studying in the training were attempted to be improved with this application. In order to measure and evaluate, 18 technical staff working in the industrial sector, 14 students studying automation engineering and eight students studying pre-license training, a group of 40 people in total was formed and performances were measured at the end of the training.
