Abstract

Modern world is technology driven. Ironically, automation, led by us has reached beyond the human imagination. Be it food and processing industry or military application, instrumentation engineering has been proved more than useful in solving the problems as well as easing the hither to used systems. PLCs have been integral in the increasing dependence on automation. Yet with the advent of nanotechnology, it was feared that the PLCs will become obsolete. But the user-friendly modifications have led to nothing but an increase in the use of PLCs in modern industries. Following paper focuses on one such application of beverage vending machine using Nano-PLC, a miniature version of the traditional PLC. Being first of its kind, this paper mainly focuses on the theories rather than other citations and references.
