Analysis and full automation of an industrial system: functional optimization and vertical integration

Abstract

This final project describes the entire automation procedure for a power & free conveyor and a double level conveyor belt. After a detailed description of both systems under mechanical and electrical perspectives, the thesis explains the implementation of an operating mode that complies with safety rules and ensures power saving as much as possible. Complete but intuitive HMI are realized; in addition, according to vertical integration, alarm diagnostic and database management are provide
