Hi. I have no way of knowing what experience level you are .. this makes it especially difficult how to approach your question. My suggestion is simply - do not use Siemens for this. Your project seems to be PC controlled and there are many steppers to drive. It would be better if you use some motion controller system. For example [LINK]. More on the S7-200.. A user PC program for the S7-200 is also messy. The add-on is expensive or your own RnD is costly. Straight USB to PLC is not possible. You'll have to use other methods for it. You can use the S7-200 is a supporting role. There are ways of using the S7-200 for your task.. but you need to be at a certain skills level to make it work.. and if you have to ask, you are not at that level. There are easier ways to do the task - see what the market offers for motion control via the PC. I wish you best of luck. |
