PLC Conveyor Motor Control Guide

This document describes a PLC program for controlling a conveyor motor. The program uses a PLC and relay logic to start the motor when a start button is pressed, run the motor until a proximity sensor detects an item has reached the end, then stop the motor. An emergency stop button can stop the motor at any time. Relay contacts are used to control the motor, indication lamps, and detect when the item reaches the end via the proximity sensor.

R : STOP Indication lamp, G : RUN Indication lamp, M : Motor, OL : Overload Relay (Motor
Protection Relay), LS1 : Proximity Switch, PB1 : Start push button, PB2 : Emergency Stop
Pushbutton, CR : Contractor Relay

Operational Sequence :

Start button is actuated.


CR1-1 closes to seal in CR1 or to latch the start command
CR1-2 opens, switching the red stop pilot light off
CR1-3 closes, switching the green run pilot light on
CR1-4 closes to energize the motor starter and motor
The box/package moves, and proximity switch (LS1) detects the box when it reached
and de-energize coil CR1
CR1-1 opens to open the seal-in contact ( unlatched start command)
CR1-2 closes, switching the red pilot light on
CR1-3 opens, switching the green pilot light off
CR1-4 opens to de-energize the starter coil, stop the motor, and end the sequence
