1. Draw an electrical ladder wiring diagram for a PLC controlled system that contains 2 PNP sensors, a NO push button, a NC limit switch, a contactor controlled AC motor and an indicator light. Include all safety circuitry.

2.We are to connect a PLC to detect boxes moving down an assembly line and divert larger boxes. The line is 12 inches wide and slanted so the boxes fall to one side as they travel by. One sensor will be mounted on the lower side of the conveyor to detect when a box is present. A second sensor will be mounted on the upper side of the conveyor to determine when a larger box is present. If the box is present, an output to a pneumatic solenoid will be actuated to divert the box. Your job is to select a specific PLC, sensors, and solenoid valve. Details (the absolute minimum being model numbers) are expected with a ladder wiring diagram.

Are you asking us to do free engineering for your project?

It sounds more like a school assignment.
