Barrel Line PLC Programming
Problem
The customer had a plating machine; the plating process was carried out manually, which represented a lower production efficiency, since the plating process was long and this led the operators to take a long time in each cycle.
Solution
PC&E designed an algorithm with the capacity to solve the needs that the client was looking for, such as:
- Improvements in production time
- Increase in product quality
- Ergonomics in the plating process
The machine has a sophisticated automation system, which is able to know and anticipate errors and failures in the system, preventing accidents and loss of raw material. This process has an advanced logic due to the logistics involved in the plating process.
If the customer wishes, the control system is capable of modifying the plating process, depending on the requested needs, since it has the capacity to store up to 4 different types of recipes, being these recipes fully configurable to change the process as required.
