I am a mechanical engineer very new to PLC and ladder logic but I am working on a new automation project for my job where they want a PLC with an HMI to run 3 different stepper motors (1 of which is a 9 pin output stepper with gear reduction) and I want to know which option would be best for an application like this. The operation is (simply) as follows: Have an operator input some number at the HMI, the number runs to motor to a specific location and then stops. repeat this for the other 2 motors and then complete and reset the cycle back to a designated zero. I would love some feedback from anyone who can help!
