OK guys,
Looking for some advice here. What is the best value PLC? I'm not talking the cheapest PLC, I'm talking best value for the money. I have to buy about 5 PLC's for a customer order on a small piece of equipment, so before i commit, I thought I'd see what others in the field think.
I was looking at Automation Direct for a low cost PLC, but I'm not sure I trust their equipment. Any thoughts on best value PLC's?
Thanks!
I have bought a few things from Automation Direct with no problems, but never any of their PLC products. I like Allen Bradley PLC's the best. As for best value PLC's... When you look at it that way, I'm really not sure.
Allen Bradleys are nice (but they aren't cheap)
I've used a few Koyo PLC's (not by choice). These are cheaper to buy, but I have had inputs fail more than once and I never liked the software.
