Abstract: PLC and SCADA are the two new approaches used to control the motion of Electric Overhead travelling crane. Ladder logic diagram for EOT Cranes are designed for motion using variable frequency drives and contactor logic and performance of various parameters are analyzed and compared and image of E.O.T crane are designed in SCADA software and communication between PLC and Scada is done with the help of Siemens simulator .There is a provision of hydraulic motor for motion in main hoist if power failure of cranes takes place to avoid the unsafe condition and work under extreme condition.
