Hello readers, I hope you all are doing great. In this tutorial, we will learn how to send an email using ESP32 module. We will also learn to send text files, images or some sensor readings using the SMTP server using the ESP32 module.
In IoT (Internet of things), there are various applications where we need to send emails carrying information like sending some sensor readings, altering emails, images, text files and much more.
What is SMTP?
SMTP or simple mail transfer protocol is an internet standard for sending and receiving electronic mail (or email) where an SMTP server receives emails from the email client.
SMTP is also used for setting communication between servers.
Various email providers like Gmail, Hotmail, Yahoo, etc. have unique SMTP ...
Hello friends! We hope you are very well! Today we are here for complementing our knowledge with one of the most important topics in PLC programming and practice its implementation in PLC ladder logic programming. Our topic today is about counters which help us to know the production size at any time, the repetition of specific tasks and events. Many real-life situation problems need counter like garage capacity should be tracked by using counters to report how many cars are inside and if there is room for incoming cars or it's full. Another critical problem is to count the repetitive tasks and events in manufacturing. Furthermore, counting products and pieces for taking an action like performing maintenance, stop operation, turn over to next prod ...
Hello friends! I hope you are doing very well, today we have a very crucial topic which is “timers”. Yes! Exactly like what comes to your mind. For running equipment i.e. motor at a specific time and/or for some amount of time we need timers. Timers are used even before PLC in classic or relay logic conventional control. However, there is a big difference between capabilities and limitations between using physical timers in classic or old fashion relay logic and using software timers in PLC. By completing this article you will be able to know what are timers and their types and applications. In addition, we are going to show off how to use timers in ladder logic programming with examples.
What are timers used for in industrial applications?
Well! ...
Hi friends! I hope you are doing well! Today we are going to learn and practice a new topic which is a very crucial technique in plc programming. the topic is called “latching”. We mean by Latching to keep the output running starting from the instance of giving a kick-off command until we hit a command to stop running of the motor. Imagine my friends, operator wants to start a motor by hitting a start push button and want the motor to keep running and leave and go for doing another task or job. And then it keeps running until the operator wants to stop it. The problem here is that, once the operator releases his hand away from the push button, the motor automatically stopped and that is not like what the operator wants to do with the motor. To clear the problem that we are going to solve, ...
Over the past century, dental care has remained a relatively rigid area of healthcare. However, the accelerated digitization of the past two decades has seen the sector rapidly adopt mainstream technologies, with the advancement taking a seemingly steeper trajectory by the day. We looked at some of the new technologies making their way into dentistry and came up with this list of what we reckon will rock the world of dental care for years to come:
3D prosthesis printing
3D printing is getting deeper and deeper into medicine. Many companies use 3D printing machines to create prosthetics to replace missing body parts. Although subtractive manufacturing still heavily dominates dentistry, the general projection is that 3D printing will eventually tak ...
Just like the big bang theory which resulted in the world we live in. If we must mark a big bang for vehicles or the Automotive industry, it would be the invention of wheels. The invention of wheels redefined the aspects in which humans transported goods or traveled across places. Since, the invention of the wheel, transportation has always been contributing to the growth of society we live in. These vehicles later helped in conquering road travel. From its inception, the vehicle industry is technologically driven, pushing its own limits to find answers to challenges such as how can we travel faster? What will help us in making these rides more comfortable? Manually driven vehicles and their restrictions raise the need for a further quest. Quest f ...
Hi friends, how are you doing? Today will integrate all of what we have learned so far in this series to build the first project based on ladder logic programming. Because we all are interested in industry, we pick one industrial project, Bottle Filling and Capping Projects, which is very common today. The problem we are going to solve today is bottle filling and capping. We have learned all basics of ladder logic including contacts and coils operation, logic gates, rising and falling edges, timers, and counters. So, today we will utilize all of these components to implement a complete ladder program of filling and capping problems.
Operation and Logic of Bottle Filling and Capping Process
For simplifying the operation of the process of filling and capping, fig. 1 shows the process flow ...
Everyone is talking about Flutter, and if you are looking for Flutter developers for hire, you’ll know how competitive and difficult the recruitment process has become. It’s not surprising by any means. If you want to invest in app development, you have to hire Flutter developer - and quickly. This process will take time and careful planning on your part, but once you’ve assembled your dream team, you’ll realize that it was worth it. Large companies all around the world - including Netflix and Facebook - are using Flutter to successfully build their apps. It’s worth considering for your business or start-up.
In this step-by-step guide, we’ll look at all aspects of hiring Flutter app developers for your business, including interviewing, do’s and do ...
Hi readers! I hope you are doing well and studying something new. Buildings need to do more than shelter us; they need to think, too. Today, the topic of our discourse is energy-efficient building design.
Making a building energy efficient minimizes power use, yet does not affect the building’s convenience, usefulness, or quality of life. An energy-efficient design unites the building’s plan, the efficiency of the materials and ways they are used, and energy-saving systems to lower the building’s total demand for heating, cooling, and lighting systems. An energy-efficient building can be created by organizing space, improving insulation, allowing daylight, and managing ventilation.
Design ideas for buildings cover good insulation, energy-efficient windows, systems that manage and conser ...
Plastic injection molding involves exposing plastic pellets to extreme temperatures to melt and become malleable. Afterward, manufacturers inject the melted plastic into a mold cavity so that upon cooling, the plastic adopts a specific shape producing the final product.
The versatility of the process makes plastic injection molding a highly beneficial method of producing plastic parts. It's similar to steel forging, finer grains are molded making the final product much stronger. If you decide to go for the plastic injection molding method of creating plastic parts, you will realize the reliability and simplicity that the technique provides. Here are some of the significant benefits of plastic injection molding to consider:
It is highly efficient ...
