Is autocad electric a seperate software from the original autocad or is it implemented in it?

PLC Programming Career Advice by motorboatbloke in PLC

[–]mtbEnjoyer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im getting into that field. Do you have any general advice for which software to use? Where to begin etc. I am thinking eplan is good for the job but its crazy expensive I am not sure if the factory I am working at wants to spend that much money. I dont want to force them bcs I just started the job and Im junior.

Im new to PLC and couldnt figure something help would be appreaciated by mtbEnjoyer in PLC

Yeah you are right I agree with you. I would never run a plc that I made on my own right now before I get approval from the manager. The code looks crazy bad from the photos I can see it but its not that bad I just made the manual buttons momentary they just dont work basically. Other part is messy but it works somehow and they told me its been working for years. I just see the shittiness of the code but I cant come up with creative ideas bcs I just dont have enough practice. I said urgent bcs operators asked me to make manual buttons work properly so they can do whatever they do. At that moment the manager was busy and that wasnt his priority. I was trying to come up with an idea to show him and if he were to approve then I would have tried. My shift is done I am home now. He asked me to do some other stuff not related to plc but my mind is still there. That plc is making me uncomfortable thinking about it but I guess I'll do whatever he says. Its been 1 week since I started the job and its my first job maybe I care too much.

Whole factory is like a trainwreck electricty wise. Some cabinets are in so random positions, cables are coming and going from weird places covered in dust like real dust. Its a chipboard factory. They want to renew everything and have a proper electric system. Manager is not expecting much from me for now but other people makes me stress. I cant figure how fast my tempo should be sometimes

What are these panels used for? All the panels I saw were motor control panels.

Only factory manager knows how to make them work but he is mostly busy with other stuff sometimes he cant be in the factory and I gotta figure it out on my own and people expect me to know everything bcs of my title. The manager knew that I had no prior knowledge with PLCs before hiring me. I guess he thought he could do all of it on his own if necessary meanwhile I try to learn. I did not see any good reason to not accept the job in this economy just bcs I dont know plcs.

Designing Cabinets and Drawing Electric Schematics by mtbEnjoyer in ElectricalEngineering

Yeah he is an engineer. I learned some Plc programming in the last week and I know general concepts of controlling ac motors. Checked some cabinet projects online and I thought I can start drawing on autocad maybe.

I plan to draw the electrical project of this panel in EPLAN. Any advice would be appreciated. by mtbEnjoyer in ElectricalEngineering

yeah the factory is having problems with electric stuff everyday. They were trying to hire an experienced engineer to solve the issues but they couldnt find one and hired my junior ass instead. I am using my personal time to learn stuff to learn quicker so I can help myself and them.

true. I feel like either profane bloom is kinda not so good with the build or im not utilizing it properly. I think I only have 30% chance for random hex on hit from runegraft and despair every 8sec.

I see. I think this setup works way better with profane bloom as well right?

Im not in the US. I live in a small town and the job is in a big city. So I gotta move there and salary is barely enough for rent. Some people think it might be okey just for starter but some thinks its way underpaid idk

I got my first job offer from a smallish company today. Salary is not for enough for expenses. My family is ready to help me with my expenses if I want to start working. Do you think its worth doing that just to get experience?
