Diseño y construcción de un módulo automatizado para el etiquetado de recipientes a través de un PLC ZELIO.

Abstract

In this project, a Zelio PLC was used to implement an automated packaging labeling module for future electromechanical students at Tecnológico Universitario Vida Nueva to use in their practical exercises. The theoretical framework includes concepts such as PLC characteristics, pneumatic system characteristics, industrial control, labeling system features, and other relevant information that supports this project. The labeling module was completed following the guidelines listed below planning to create the best possible human machine interface using AutoCad software to create detailed assembly plans and designing the mechanical layout of the module. CADE SIMU software was utilized to simulate the input and output of the double acting piston for the pneumatic system and to simulate connections for the Zelio PLC. Different control modes were successfully configured and simulated using the Leader language and Zelio Soft software. The module design incorporates a control and power system board, for which interconnection schemes for the various components were developed. This interface enables easy and rapid system development and enhances efficiency in automated control systems. Lastly, but not least, with the implementation of this module, students will be able to conduct laboratory exercises in the various workshops that make up the electromechanical course, combining theoretical knowledge with practical skills, thus shaping competent and reliable technical professionals, the best and most effective at Tecnológico Universitario Vida Nueva.
