Скачать или смотреть Pivot Arm Sorting with PLC S7-1200 | TIA Portal V16 + Factory IO | Ladder Diagram + Counters 🏭⚙️

In this video, I’m going to show you a complete practical PLC project where we build a Pivot Arm Sorting System using Siemens S7-1200 PLC, TIA Portal V16, and Factory IO simulation.

The system works as a real industrial sorting line. Boxes move on a conveyor belt, and the PLC automatically detects and sorts them into two categories:

📦 Small Boxes
📦 Large Boxes

To make the sorting process accurate, I used 3 Diffuse Sensors to detect the box position and control the pivot arm movement. The logic is programmed using a simple Ladder Diagram (LAD), and we also use counters (CTU) to count how many small and large boxes pass through the system.

This is a great project if you are learning PLC programming and want to understand how real sorting systems work in factories.

🔥 In this project you will learn:

✅ How to connect Factory IO with Siemens S7-1200
✅ Pivot Arm control using Ladder Logic
✅ Using 3 sensors for detection and positioning
✅ Counting small and large boxes using CTU counters
✅ Practical industrial automation simulation step by step
