Construcción del sistema de automatización para la expulsión de contenido ruminal para la Empresa Pública Metropolitana de Rastro.

Abstract

In consideration of the considerable technological advances existing at this time, the objective of this thesis is to present a technical solution to the problem identified at the Empresa Pública Metropolitana de Rastro, which has a rumen content extraction system that only allows manual control of the rumen content. Once the problems in efficiency have been analyzed with reference to the time spent in this area of the slaughtering process, we propose the construction of the automation system for the expulsion of rumen content in the Metropolitan Public Company of Rastro by means of the application of a PLC Logo 230RC in charge of the control of the automated process. The programming and other processes that were implemented to automate the process, in order to show an increase in the efficiency of this process, thus allowing an intuitive control that allows both manual or automatic control of the process. For this purpose, quantitative research will be applied to verify the existence of a considerable improvement in production times, obtaining the data through experimental research, allowing a more precise evaluation of the existence of an increase in the efficiency of this area in the slaughter process. In this way, the modernization of the production systems is made possible through the application of more updated technologies that allow demonstrating the continuous improvement that can be applied to these processes with the help of new technological developments.
