Motion and state
Its rotary state can be driven from a PLC output so speed and direction remain visible during a scan.

Load the interactive model when you are ready to rotate, inspect and operate it. Deferring WebGL keeps the reference page fast.
Its rotary state can be driven from a PLC output so speed and direction remain visible during a scan.
Commission it by proving encoder count before accepting forward, reverse, speed reference.
Inject jammed, slow states and require the PLC sequence to detect, stop and recover deliberately.
Signal map
PLC output Forward; PLC output Reverse; PLC output Speed reference (m/s); PLC input Encoder count
| Signal | PLC direction | Type / range |
|---|---|---|
| Forward forward | output | bool |
| Reverse reverse | output | bool |
| Speed reference speed | output | float · m/s · -0.8–0.8 |
| Encoder count encoder | input | int |
Fault and recovery exercise
Inject jammed, slow states and require the PLC sequence to detect, stop and recover deliberately.
The model teaches PLC sequence behaviour and diagnosis. Confirm ratings, wiring, guarding, process calculations and commissioning limits against the real manufacturer documentation and site design.
