Trol T6 PLC – A Simple, Powerful, and Cost-Effective Automation Controller
The Trol T6 Controller is a complete, low-cost PLC system designed for easy machine control—no programming experience required. Unlike traditional industrial PLC controllers, the T6 uses a unique sentence-based programming method that eliminates the need for symbols, abbreviations, Boolean logic, or complex addressing. Programming the T6 is as simple as selecting words from a menu to create clear, logical sentences that follow the natural operation of your machine.
With up to 575 programmable sentences and support for multi-tasking across multiple pages, the T6 PLC can handle complex automation tasks with ease. This makes it an ideal replacement for both complicated PLCs and expensive, custom-built circuit boards. Even users who didn’t write the original program can easily understand how the controller operates—making maintenance and updates simple and intuitive.
The Trol T6 automation controller can be programmed using either a standard computer or an optional pocket programmer, offering flexibility for different workflow preferences. One T6 controller can replace hundreds of timers, counters, and relays, making it a powerful and scalable solution for a wide variety of machine applications. Choose the T6 when you need a straightforward, reliable, and budget-friendly PLC controller for your automation needs.
The Trol T6 PLC controller comes equipped with 6 inputs and 4 outputs, giving you a total of 10 I/O points to start. As your machine or automation system grows, the T6 controller grows with you—supporting up to 52 outputs for expanded functionality. A variety of I/O module types and configurations are available to suit different application needs, offering flexibility without complexity.
No matter how much I/O is added, programming the T6 PLC remains fast and easy thanks to its intuitive, sentence-based system. I/O modules are designed for quick installation—simply snap them onto the DIN rail and connect the cable. Whether you’re expanding your system or starting from scratch, the Trol T6 automation controller delivers powerful, scalable performance with unmatched simplicity.
With the Trol T6 PLC controller, monitoring your machine in real time is simple—because the programmer displays exactly what the controller is doing in plain, easy-to-understand English. There’s no guesswork, just clear visibility into your system’s operation.
For added convenience, the T6 supports a front-mounted remote timer panel that allows operators to adjust timers even while the machine is running. Selecting and modifying settings is effortless—just choose one of the eight timers by its custom name and adjust the value as needed. You control the adjustment range and can label each timer to match your application. The panel can also display up to 15 custom messages, helping operators stay informed without accessing the core PLC system. For additional functionality, a remote counter panel is available to display and adjust counters, all while keeping your program secure and protected from unauthorized changes.
