Construcción de un sistema de detección y separación de objetos plásticos en función de su tamaño controlado por un micro PLC logo.

Abstract

This project details the construction of a prototype of detection and separation of objects according to their size, achieving the separation of objects for a good classification. Such technologies are mostly used in manufacturing industries in their product categorization processes, the machine was built for the acquisition of new knowledge and understanding of the operation of the components used in it prototype. This type of project is applicable in many industries as it is practical and focuses on the ability to use new technological devices in the industrial field since all types of components installed in the prototype are functional elements industrially. The capacity and application of these machines today are highly valued by companies because for reasons of efficiency and time require more advanced processes and have better results at the time of production this greatly facilitates the ability to processing in a company. This prototype is designed for the identification and classification of plastic artifacts according to their size. Achieving a categorization of products by using three pistons that separate the artifacts. The pistons are actuated by an electrovalve controlled by a PLC logo. The activation signal comes from a photoelectric sensor which is responsible for identifying objects by their size.
