CHAPTER 1 Introduction

With advancement of technology things are becoming simpler and easier for us.
Automation is the use of control systems and information technologies to reduce the need
for human work in the production of goods and services. In the scope of industrialization,
automation is a step beyond mechanization. Whereas mechanization provided human
operators with machinery to assist them with the muscular.
Requirements of work, automation greatly decreases the need for human sensory and
mental requirements as well. Automation plays an increasingly important role in the
world economy and in daily experience.
Automatic systems are being preferred over manual system. Through this project we have
tried to show automatic control for the Items sorting.

1.1 NEED OF AUTOMATION


Earlier, we looked into the face of future when we talked about automatic devices, which
could do anything on instigation of a controller, but today it has become a reality. An
automatic device can replace good amount of human working force, moreover humans
are more prone to errors and in intensive conditions the probability of error increases
whereas, an automatic device can work with diligence, versatility and with almost zero
error. Replacing human operators in tasks that involve hard physical or monotonous
Work .Replacing humans in tasks done in dangerous environments (i.e. fire, space,
volcanoes, nuclear facilities, underwater, etc)

Performing tasks that are beyond human capabilities of size, weight, speed, endurance,
etc. Economy improvement. Automation may improve in economy of enterprises,
society or most of humankind. For example, when an enterprise that has invested in
automation technology recovers its investment, or when a state or country increases its
income due to automation like Germany or Japan in the 20th Century.
This is why this project looks into construction and implementation of a system
involving hardware to control the sorting of different items.

1.2Project Objective

Our objective is to Design such a PLC and SCADA based conveyor Belt system that does the
sorting by itself, gives fast production, reduces the number of personnel and durable.

1.3 Project Scope

Due to its small size and less number of input output functions we have used FATEK
PLC 14-FBS, which has 8 inputs and 6 outputs.

DC Gear motor 12v and 4A is used to drive the Conveyor Belts. A dc battery of 12v and
40Amps is used to give power to the Conveyor Belt.

3 infrared sensors are used , two sensors on one CD ROM where the objects with more
width will be detected and the other sensor is used on another CD ROM where the small
object will be detected. The detected objects will be then pushed with the help of the CD
ROMs on their respective Secondary conveyor belts.

1.4Assessment Methodology

The implementation of the PLC AND SCADA BASED INDUSTRIAL CONTROL


SYSTEM is mainly carried out by PLC AND SCADA. The signals from the infrared
sensors are fed to the PLC which make a decision and then through some processing by
the PLC that detected object/ item is then transferred to another conveyor belt which is
carried to its destination.

We also have added Metal sensors and Color Sensors.

The conveyor Belts were designed with the help of the mechanical experts using lathe
machines.

SCADA system is used to display the over all activity of the plc, like production,
detection of the metal and colored item.

CHAPTER 2 Theoretical Backgrounds

2.1 CAPACITORS

2.1.1 Function
Capacitors store electric charge. They are used with resistors in timing circuits because it
takes time for a capacitor to fill with charge. They are used to smooth varying DC
supplies by acting as a reservoir of charge. They are also used in filter circuits because
capacitors easily pass AC (changing) signals but they block DC (constant) signals.

       Circuit symbol:   

Fig: 2.1 Fig: 2.2

Small value capacitors are unpolarised and may be connected either way round. They are
not damaged by heat when soldering, except for one unusual type (polystyrene). They
have high voltage ratings of at least 50V, usually 250V or so. It can be difficult to find
the values of these small capacitors because there are many types of them and several
different labeling systems!

2.1.2 For capacitors in parallel
Capacitors in a parallel configuration each have the same applied voltage. Their
capacitances add up. Charge is apportioned among them by size. Using the
schematic diagram to visualize parallel plates, it is apparent that each capacitor
contributes to the total surface area.

2.1.3 For capacitors in parallel


Connected in series, the schematic diagram reveals that the separation distance,
not the plate area, adds up. The capacitors each store instantaneous charge build-
up equal to that of every other capacitor in the series. The total voltage difference
from end to end is apportioned to each capacitor according to the inverse of its
capacitance. The entire series acts as a capacitor smaller than any of its
components.

2.2.3 Resistor values - the resistor colour code

Resistance is measured in ohms; the symbol for ohm is an omega .


1 is quite small so resistor values are often given in k and M .
1 k = 1000     1 M = 1000000 .

Resistor values are normally shown using colored bands.


Each color represents a number as shown in the table.

Most resistors have 4 bands:

 The first band gives the first digit.


 The second band gives the second digit.
 The third band indicates the number of zeros.
 The fourth band is used to shows the tolerance (precision) of the resistor, this may
be ignored for almost all circuits but further details are given below.

8
Fig: 2.7

This resistor has red (2), violet (7), yellow (4 zeros) and gold bands.
So its value is 270000 = 270 k .
On circuit diagrams the is usually omitted and the value is written 270K.

Fig: 2.8

Small value resistors (less than 10 ohm)

The standard colour code cannot show values of less than 10 . To show these small values two
special colors are used for the third band: gold which means × 0.1 and silver which means
× 0.01. The first and second bands represent the digits as normal.

For example:
red, violet, gold bands represent 27 × 0.1 = 2.7 
green, blue, silver bands represent 56 × 0.01 = 0.56 

2.2.4 Tolerance of resistors (fourth band of colour code)


The tolerance of a resistor is shown by the fourth band of the colour code. Tolerance is the
precision of the resistor and it is given as a percentage. For example a 390 resistor with a
tolerance of ±10% will have a value within 10% of 390 , between 390 - 39 = 351 and 390 +
39 = 429 (39 is 10% of 390).

A special colour code is used for the fourth band tolerance:


silver ±10%,   gold ±5%,   red ±2%,   brown ±1%.
If no fourth band is shown the tolerance is ±20%.

Tolerance may be ignored for almost all circuits because precise resistor values are rarely
required.

2.2.5 Power Ratings of Resistors

Electrical energy is converted to heat when current flows through a resistor. Usually the
effect is negligible, but if the resistance is low (or the voltage across the resistor high) a
large current may pass making the resistor become noticeably warm. The resistor must be
able to withstand the heating effect and resistors have power ratings to show this.

Power ratings of resistors are rarely quoted in parts lists because for most circuits the
standard power ratings of 0.25W or 0.5W are suitable. For the rare cases where a higher
power is required it should be clearly specified in the parts list, these will be circuits
using low value resistors (less than about 300 ) or high voltages (more than 15V).

9
The power, P, developed in a resistor is given by:

P = I² × where P = power developed in the resistor in


R : watts (W)
or I  = current through the resistor in
P = V² / amps (A)
R R = resistance of the resistor in ohms (
)
V = voltage across the resistor in volts Circuit symbol for a relay
(V)

2.3 RELAY:

A relay is an electrically operated switch. Current


flowing through the coil of the relay creates a magnetic
field which attracts a lever and changes the switch
contacts. The coil current can be on or off so relays
have two switch positions and they are double throw
(changeover) switches. Fig:2.9

Relays allow one circuit to switch a second circuit Relays


which can be completely separate from the first. For
example a low voltage battery circuit can use a relay to
switch a 230V AC mains circuit. There is no electrical
connection inside the relay between the two circuits;
the link is magnetic and mechanical.

The coil of a relay passes a relatively large current, typically 30mA for a 12V relay, but it
can be as much as 100mA for relays designed to operate from lower voltages. Most ICs
(chips) cannot provide this current and a transistor is usually used to amplify the small IC
current to the larger value required for the relay coil. The maximum output current for the
popular 555 timer IC is 200mA so these devices can supply relay coils directly without
amplification.

2.3.1 Advantages of relays:

 Relays can switch AC and DC, transistors can only switch DC.
 Relays can switch high voltages, transistors cannot.
 Relays are a better choice for switching large currents (> 5A).
 Relays can switch many contacts at once.

10
2.3.2 Disadvantages of relays:

 For Relays are bulkier than transistors for switching small currents.
 Relays cannot switch rapidly (except reed relays), transistors can switch many
times per second.
 Relays use more power due to the current flowing through their coil.
 Relays require more current than many ICs can provide, so a low power
transistor may be needed to switch the current the relay's coil.

2.4 Diode:

 The most basic property of a junction diode is that it conducts an electric current
in one direction and blocks it in the other. This behavior arises from the electrical
characteristics of a junction, called a p-n junction. Fabricated within a
semiconductor crystal. The most commonly used semiconductor material is
silicon. The junction diode is useful in a wide variety of applications including the
rectification of ac signals (producing dc from ac), the detection of radio signals,
the conversion of solar power to electricity, and in the generation and detection of
light. It also finds use in a variety of electronic circuits as a switch, as a voltage
reference or even as a tunable capacitor. The p-n junction is also the basic
building block of a host of other electronic devices, of which the most well-
known is the junction transistor.
 In our project we have used a diode as a rectifier basically it is a full wave
rectifier used to convert ac in to dc in the power supply portion of the project.

2.5 DB-9 Connector:


This connector is occasionally found on smaller RS-232 lab equipment. It is compact yet
has enough pins for the "core" set of serial pins (with one pin extra).

Important: The DB-9 pin numbers for transmit and receive (3 and 2) are opposite of those
of the DB-25 connector (2 and 3).

The images show the male and female versions of the DB-9 connector with pin numbers.

Some of the early Macs also used the DB-9 connector as a serial port.

In this project we used db-9 connectors to provide interface between terminal and control
board. More over the interface between control board and server computer is also through
db-9 connectors and 8-wire cables

2.6 Light-emitting diode

14
Fig:2.14

Basically, LEDs are just tiny light bulbs that fit easily into an electrical circuit. But unlike
ordinary incandescent bulbs ,they don't have a filament that will burn out, and they don't
get especially hot. They are illuminated solely by the movement of electrons in a
semiconductor material, and they last just as long as a standard transistor.

A light-emitting-diode (LED) is a semiconductor diode that emits light when an electric


current is applied in the forward direction of the device, as in the simple LED circuit

LED schematic symbol

Fig: 2.15

The effect is a form of electroluminescence where incoherent and narrow-spectrum light


is emitted from the p-n junction in a solid state material.

2.7 Bridge Rectifier


Bridge rectifier is an electronic component which converts an input AC current into a DC
current as an output. Electronic devices and particularly portable electronic devices
typically make the use of alternating current to direct current adapters either as a direct
source of power to charge on-board batteries. Fig: 2.16

15
A bridge rectifier makes use of four diodes
in a bridge arrangement to achieve full-
wave rectification. It is called a full-wave
rectifier because it uses the entire AC wave
(both positive and negative sections). 1.4V
is used up in the bridge rectifier because
each diode uses 0.7V when conducting and
there are always two diodes conducting, as
shown in the diagram below. Bridge
rectifiers are rated by the maximum current
they can pass and the maximum reverse
voltage they can withstand (this must be at
least three times the supply RMS voltage
so the rectifier can withstand the peak
voltages). This is a widely used configuration, both with individual diodes wired as
shown and with single component bridges where the diode bridge is wired internally.

The input to the circuit is applied to the diagonally opposite corners of the network, and
the output is taken from the remaining two corners. Let us assume the transformer is
working properly and there is a positive potential at point A and a negative potential at
point B.

Figure: Bridge Rectifier.


The positive potential at point A will forward bias D3 and reverse bias D4. The negative
potential at point B will forward bias D1 and reverse bias D2. At this time D3 and D1 are
forward biased and will allow current flow to pass through them; D4 and D2 are reverse
biased and will block current flow. The path for current flow is from point B through D1,
up through RL, through D3, through the secondary of the transformer back to point B.
This path is indicated by the solid arrows. Waveforms (1) and (2) can be observed across
D1 and D3.

One-half cycle later the polarity across the secondary of the transformer reverses, forward
biasing D2 and D4 and reverse biasing D1 and D3. Current flow will now be from point
A through D4, up through RL, through D2, through the secondary of T1, and back to
point A. This path is indicated by the broken arrows. Waveforms (3) and (4) can be
observed across D2 and D4. You should have noted that the current flow through R L is
always in the same direction. In flowing through R L this current develops a voltage
corresponding to that shown in waveform (5). Since current flows through the load (R L)
during both half cycles of the applied voltage, this bridge rectifier is a full-wave rectifier.

One advantage of a bridge rectifier over a conventional full-wave rectifier is that with a
given transformer the bridge rectifier produces a voltage output that is nearly twice that
of the conventional full-wave circuit.

2.7.1 Current Flow in the Bridge Rectifier

16
For both positive and negative swings of the transformer, there is a forward path through
the diode bridge. Both conduction paths cause current to flow in the same direction
through the load resistor, accomplishing full-wave rectification. While one set of diodes
is forward biased, the other set is reverse biased and effectively eliminated from the
circuit.

2.7.2 Applications
The primary application of rectifiers is to derive DC power from an AC supply. Virtually
all electronics require a DC supply but mains power is AC so rectifiers find uses inside
the power supplies of virtually all electronic equipment.

2.8 Transformer
A transformer is a device that transfers electrical energy from one circuit to another
through inductively coupled electrical conductors. A changing current in the first circuit
(the primary) creates a changing magnetic field. This changing magnetic field induces a
changing voltage in the second circuit (the secondary). This effect is called mutual
induction.

Transformers are passive electrical devices that transform alternating or intermittent


electric energy in one circuit into energy of a similar type in another circuit, commonly
with altered values of voltage and current. It typically contains two or more electrical
circuits comprising primary and secondary windings, each made of a multi-turn coil of
electrical conductors with one or more magnetic cores coupling the coils by transferring a
magnetic flux there between. Increasingly, modern day appliances are constructed using
low voltage transformers for many purposes including as lighting transformers or to
supply power to electronic components.

2.8.1 How does a transformer work?

A transformer is based on a very simple fact about electricity: when a fluctuating electric
current flows through a wire, it generates a magnetic field (an invisible pattern of
magnetism) or "magnetic flux" all around it. The strength of the magnetism (which has
the rather technical name of magnetic flux density) is directly related to the size of the
electric current. So the bigger the current, the stronger the magnetic field. Now there's
another interesting fact about electricity too. When a magnetic field fluctuates around a
piece of wire, it generates an electric current in the wire. So if we put a second coil of
wire next to the first one, and send a fluctuating electric current into the first coil, we will
create an electric current in the second wire. This is called electromagnetic induction
because the current in the first coil causes (or "induces") a current in the second coil. The
current in the first coil is usually called the primary current and the current in the second
wire is (surprise, surprise) the secondary current. What we've done here is pass an electric
current through empty space from one coil of wire to another. This phenomenon is called
electromagnetic induction. We can make electrical energy pass more efficiently from one
coil to the other by wrapping them around a soft iron bar (sometimes called a core):

17
Fig: 2.17

To make a coil of wire, we simply curl the wire round into loops or ("turns" as physicists
like to call them). If the second coil has the same number of turns as the first coil, the
electric current in the second coil will be virtually the same size as the one in the first
coil. But (and here's the clever part) if we have more or fewer turns in the second coil, we
can make the secondary current and voltage bigger or smaller than the primary current
and voltage.

One important thing to note is that this trick works only if the electric current is
fluctuating in some way. In other words, you have to use a type of constantly reversing
electricity called alternating current (AC) with a transformer. Transformers do not work
with direct current (DC), where the current constantly flows in the same direction.

2.8.2 Step-down transformers

If the first coil has more turns that the second coil, the secondary voltage is smaller than
the primary voltage:

18
This is called a step-down transformer. If the second coil has half as many turns as the
first coil, the secondary voltage will be half the size of the primary voltage; if the second
coil has one tenth as many turns; it has one tenth the voltage. In general:

Secondary voltage ÷ Primary voltage = Number of turns in secondary ÷ Number of turns


in primary

The current is transformed the opposite way—increased in size—in a step-down


transformer:

Secondary current ÷ Primary current = Number of turns in primary ÷ Number of turns in


secondary

So a step-down transformer with 100 coils in the primary and 10 coils in the secondary will
reduce the voltage by a factor of 10 but multiply the current by a factor of 10 at the same
time. The power in an electric current is equal to the current times the voltage (watts =
volts x amps is one way to remember this), so you can see the power in the secondary coil is
theoretically the same as the power in the primary coil. (In reality, there is some loss of
power between the primary and the secondary because some of the "magnetic flux" leaks
out of the core; some energy is lost because the core heats up, and so on.)

2.9 PLC and SCADA

19
2.9.1 PLC configuration

i. Many PLC configurations are available, even from a single vendor. But each
of these has common components and concepts. The most essential
component is are:

ii. Power supply –

This can be built into the PLC or be an external unit. Common voltage levels required
by the PLC are 24Vdc 100Vac 240Vac.

iii. CPU (central Processing Unit) –

This is a computer where ladder logic is stored and processed.

iv. I/O (Input/output) –

A number of input/output terminals must be provided so that the PLC can monitor
the process and initiate actions. Inputs to, and outputs from, a PLC is necessary to
monitor and control a process. Both inputs and outputs can be categorized into two
basic types: logical or continuous. Consider the example of a light bulb. If it can only
be turned on or off, it is logical control. If the light can be dimmed to different levels,
it is continuous.

Indicator lights –

These indicate the status of the PLC including


power on
program running
and
An error.

These are essential when diagnosing problems.

vi. Rack Type :


A rack can often be as large as 18” by 30” by 10”

Mini:

20
These are similar in function to PLC racks, but about the half size.
Dedicated Backplanes can be used to support the cards OR DIN rail
mountable with incorporated I/O bus in module.

viii. Shoebox:

A compact, all-in-one unit that has limited expansion capabilities.


Lower cost and compactness make these ideal for small applications. DIN
rail mountable.

ix. Micro:

These units can be as small as a deck of cards. They tend to have


fixed quantities of I/O and limited abilities, but costs will be lowest. DIN rail
mountable

2.9.2 Basic PLC schema

21
The basic PLC schema include CPU, power supply, memory, Input block, output block,
communication and expansion connections. Figure 2.1 shows the PLC system overview.

Figure 2.18 PLC system overview

CPU modules –

The Central Processing Unit (CPU) Module is the brain of


the PLC.Primary role to read inputs, execute the control program, update outputs.
The CPU consists of the arithmetic logic unit (ALU), timing/control circuitry,
accumulator, scratch pad memory, program counter, address stack and instruction
register. A PLC works by continually scanning a program.

22
Memory –

The memory includes pre-programmed ROM memory containing


the PLC’s operating system, driver programs and application programs and the
RAM memory. PLC manufacturer offer various types of retentive memory to save
user programs and data while power is removed, so that the PLC can resume
12
execution of the user-written control program as soon as power is restored. Some
types of memory used in a PLC include:

ROM (Read-Only Memory)

RAM (Random Access Memory)

PROM (Programmable Read-Only Memory)

iv. EPROM (Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory)

v EEPROM (Electronically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory)

vi. FLASH Memory

Compact Flash – Can store complete program information, read & write text files

viii. I/O Modules - Input and output (I/O) modules connect the PLC to sensors
and actuators. Provide isolation for the low-voltage, low-current signals that the
PLC uses internally from the higher-power electrical circuits required by most
sensors and actuators. Wide range of I/O modules available including: digital
(logical) I/O modules and analogue (continuous) I/O modules.

2.9.3 PLC Hardware

23
A programmable logic controller (PLC) is an industrial computer used to control and
automate complex systems. Programmable logic controllers are a relatively recent
development in process control technology. It is designed for use in an industrial
environment, which uses a programmable memory for the integral storage of user-
oriented instructions for implementing specific functions such as logic, sequencing,
timing, counting, and arithmetic to control through digital or analog inputs and outputs,
various types of machines or processes. Programmable logic controllers are used
throughout industry to control and monitor a wide range of machines and other movable
components and systems. PLC is used to monitor input signals from a variety of input
points (input sensors) which report events and conditions occurring in a controlled
process. Programmable logic controllers are typically found in factory type settings.
PLCs are used to control robots, assembly lines and various other applications that
require a large amount of data monitoring and control.
A typical programmable logic controller employs a backplane to serve as the
communications bus for interconnecting the PLC processor with the array of individual
input/output devices with which the processor interacts in terms of receiving input data
for use in executing the control program and transmitting control data for use in
controlling the targeted objects. A PLC includes a rack into which a plurality of
input/output cards may be placed. A rack includes several slots into which these
input/output cards are installed. Each input/output card has a plurality of I/O points. The
I/O modules are typically pluggable into respective slots located on a backplane board in
the PLC. An I/O bus couples the cards in the slots back to the processor of the
programmable logic controller. The slots are coupled together by a main bus which
couples any I/O modules plugged into the slots to a central processing unit (CPU). The
CPU itself can be located on a card which is pluggable into a dedicated slot on the
backplane of the PLC. The particular processor employed in a PLC together with the
particular choice of input and output cards installed in the PLC rack are often referred to
as the hardware configuration of the programmable logic controller. The hardware
configuration also includes the particular addresses which the I/O cards. Each option
module typically has a plurality of input/output points. The option modules are coupled
through an interface bus, for example via a backplane, to a main controller having a
microprocessor executing a user program.
Option modules may also include a microprocessor and a memory containing separate
user programs and data directed to a particular operation of the PLC system. During the
execution of a stored control program, the PLC's read inputs from the controlled process
and, per the logic of the control program, provide outputs to the controlled process. The
outputs typically provide analog or binary voltages or "contacts" implemented by solid
state switching devices. PLC's are normally constructed in modular fashion to allow them
to be easily reconfigured to meet the demands of the particular process being controlled.
The processor and I/O circuitry are normally constructed as separate modules that may be
inserted in a chassis and connected together through a common backplane using
permanent or releasable electrical connectors.

2.9.3.1 Introduction of FATEK FBS Series PLC

24
The FATEK FBS Series PLC is a new generation of micro PLC equipped with
excellent functions comparable to medium or large PLC, with up to five
communication ports. The maximum I/O numbers are 256 points for Digital Input
(DI) and Digital Output (DO), 64 words for Numeric Input (NI) and Numeric
Output (NO). The Main Units of FBS are available in three types: MA (Economy
Type), MC (High-Performance Type), and MN (High-Speed NC Type). With the
combination of I/O point ranges from 10 to 60, a total of 17 models are available.

2.9.4 PLC Operation

CHECK INPUT STATUS-First the PLC takes a look at each input to


determine whether it is on or off condition.

30
EXECUTE PROGRAM-Next the PLC executes a program by one
instruction at a time. If the first input is on then it should turn on the first output.
Since it already knows then it will be able to decide whether the first output
should
be turned on based on the state of the first input. It will store the execution results
for use later during the next step.

UPDATE OUTPUT STATUS-Finally the PLC updates the status of the


outputs. It updates the outputs based on which inputs are on during the first step
and
the results of executing your program during the second step. Based on the
example
in step 2 it would now turn “ON” the first output because the first input is “ON”
and
your program said to turn “ON” the first output when this condition is true.

2.9.5 SCADA

2.9.5.1 Introduction

31
Widely used in industry for Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition of industrial
processes, SCADA systems are now also penetrating the experimental physics
laboratories for the controls of ancillary systems such as cooling, ventilation,
power distribution, etc.
SCADA systems have made substantial progress over the recent years in terms
of
functionality, scalability, performance and openness such that they are an
alternative to in house development even for very demanding and complex
control systems as those of physics experiments.

2.9.5.2 What does SCADA MEAN?

SCADA stands for Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition. As the name indicates, it
is not a full control system, but rather focuses on the supervisory level. As such, it is a
purely software package that is positioned on top of hardware to which it is interfaced, in
general via Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs), or other commercial hardware
modules.
SCADA systems are used not only in industrial processes: e.g. steel making, power
generation (conventional and nuclear) and distribution, chemistry, but also in some
experimental facilities such as nuclear fusion. The size of such plants range from a few
1000 to several 10 thousands input/output (I/O) channels. However, SCADA systems
evolve rapidly and are now penetrating the market of plants with a number of I/O
channels of several 100 K: we know of two cases of near to 1 M I/O channels currently
under development.
SCADA systems used to run on DOS, VMS and UNIX; in recent years all SCADA
vendors have moved to NT and some also to Linux.

2.10 7812 Voltage Regulator

36
7812 is a famous IC which is being widely used in 12V voltage regulator circuits. Truly
speaking it is a complete standalone voltage regulator. We only need to use two
capacitors, one on the input and second one on the output of 7812 in order to achieve
clean voltage output and even these capacitors are optional to use. To achieve 12V 1A
current, 7812 should be mounted on a good heatsink plate. Thanks to the transistor like
shape of 7812 which makes it easy to mount on a heatsink plate. 7812 has built in over
heat and short circuit protection which makes it a good choice for making power
supplies.

7812 circuit diagram Fig: 2.25


In electronics markets, 7812 is sold under various names such as 7812a, 7812act, 7812t
and lm7812. All of them are almost identical with a little to no differences at all. 7812
input voltage range is 14V to 35V. Exceeding the voltage range may damage the IC.
Given bellow is 7812 pin diagram to make the pinout connections clear in case you
want to do some experiments.

37
7812 pin diagram Fig: 2.26
If you hold upside down (pins up) and the IC number is facing you then the left pin will
be the voltage regulator output, the center pin will be ground and the right pin will be
the voltage input pin. Under my experience, the maximum safe current you can get
from one 7812 IC is 1A. If you need more power then there are a few ways to do so.
More than one 7812 can be used in parallel in order to achieve more than 1A current but
output voltage of each 7812 can slightly vary resulting in unbalanced load on all of
them. This can result in load balancing issues and can damage the IC carrying most
current. However there is a way to overcome this problem. I have given bellow a
schematic diagram in which two 7812 ICs are attached together and both of them are
carrying almost equal load. At least the current difference is not too much to damage
any IC.

7812 in parallel circuit diagram Fig: 2.27

38
Please note that in this circuit diagram, I have used resistors for load balancing purpose
so the output of this voltage regulator circuit may slightly inaccurate. Both resistors
should be minimum 15 Watt or above. If you don’t find such resistors in your area then
you can make them using 32 gauge or thinner copper wire. This parallel 7812 circuit
will provide 12V and approximately 2A current. You can increase number of 7812 but
each additional 7812 will require a resistor on its output.
Following is the link to a simple but complete power supply circuit diagram developed
using 7812.

2.11 Metal detector 

A metal detector is an electronic instrument which detects the presence of metal nearby.


Metal detectors are useful for finding metal inclusions hidden within objects, or metal
objects buried underground. They often consist of a handheld unit with a sensor probe
which can be swept over the ground or other objects. If the sensor comes near a piece of
metal this is indicated by a changing tone in earphones, or a needle moving on an
indicator. Usually the device gives some indication of distance; the closer the metal is,
the higher the tone in the earphone or the higher the needle goes. Another common type
are stationary "walk through" metal detectors used for security screening at access points
in prisons, courthouses, and airports to detect concealed metal weapons on a person's
body.
The simplest form of a metal detector consists of an oscillator producing an alternating
current that passes through a coil producing an alternating magnetic field. If a piece of
electrically conductive metal is close to the coil, eddy currents will be induced in the
metal, and this produces a magnetic field of its own. If another coil is used to measure the
magnetic field (acting as a magnetometer), the change in the magnetic field due to the
metallic object can be detected.
The first industrial metal detectors were developed in the 1960s and were used
extensively for mineral prospecting and other industrial applications. Uses include de-
mining (the detection of land mines), the detection of weapons such as knives and guns
(especially in airport security), geophysical prospecting, archaeology and treasure
hunting. Metal detectors are also used to detect foreign bodies in food, and in
the construction industry to detect steel reinforcing bars in concrete and pipes and wires
buried in walls and floors.

2. 11.1 Industrial metal detectors

Industrial metal detectors are used in the pharmaceutical, food, beverage, textile,
garment, plastics, chemicals, lumber, and packaging industries.
Contamination of food by metal shards from broken processing machinery during the
manufacturing process is a major safety issue in the food industry. Metal detectors for
this purpose are widely used and integrated into the production line.
Current practice at garment or apparel industry plants is to apply metal detecting after the
garments are completely sewn and before garments are packed to check whether there is
any metal contamination (needle, broken needle, etc.) in the garments. This needs to be
done for safety reasons.

40
The industrial metal detector was developed by Bruce Kerr and David Hiscock in 1947.
The founding company Goring Kerr[12] pioneered the use and development of the first
industrial metal detector. Mars Incorporated was one of the first customers of Goring
Kerr using their Metlokate metal detector to inspect Mars bar.
The basic principle of operation for the common industrial metal detector is based on a 3
coil design. This design utilizes an AM (amplitude modulated) transmitting coil and two
receiving coils one on either side of the transmitter. The design and physical
configuration of the receiving coils are instrumental in the ability to detect very small
metal contaminates of 1mm or smaller. Today modern metal detectors continue to utilize
this configuration for the detection of tramp metal.
The coil configuration is such that it creates an opening whereby the product (food,
plastics, pharmaceuticals, etc.) passes through the coils. This opening or aperture allows
the product to enter and exit through the three coil system producing an equal but
mirrored signal on the two receiving coils. The resulting signals are summed together
effectively nullifying each other.
When a metal contaminant is introduced into the product an unequal disturbance is
created. This then creates a very small electronic signal that is amplified through special
electronics. The amplification produced then signals a mechanical device mounted to
the conveyor system to remove the contaminated product from the production line. This
process is completely automated and allows manufacturing to operate uninterrupted.

2.12 Color Sensor
Although the human eye is very strong ability to distinguish colors, but different people
describe the same color will be different, which means that demand accurate color
detection and management of applications, the verbal description is not enough. Despite
the better the ability of the human eye distinguish colors is very strong, but different
people will describe the same color are different, which means that demand accurate
color detection and management of applications, the verbal description is not enough. A
better solution is to use fully calibrated color sensing equipment to digitally describe the
color. These devices include expensive laboratory grade spectrophotometer to the
economy, RGB color sensors (such as the production of Avago color sensor). Avago has
a variety of color sensors, many of the actual color of the current sensing and
measurement applications provide a practical solution. The objective of this paper is to
examine color perception, measurement and specification, and how to apply color sensor-
generated data. Finally, the article discusses the Avago's RGB color sensor products and
how for a variety of color sensing applications. The perception of color into the electronic
devices in the theory of how the color sensor, it is necessary to understand how humans
perceive color. Color is light, the interaction between object and observer results. In
reflected light, the light falling on an object will be reflected or absorbed, depending on
the surface characteristics, such as the reflection coefficient and transmission conditions.
For example, the red paper will absorb most of the spectrum with the green part and the
part with the blue, while reflecting part of the spectrum with the red, so the viewer will
show in red. Luminous objects in their own, its the same principle: light will reach the
human eye, and then processed by the receiver eye, from the nervous system and brain
for interpretation. Human visual system can detect from about 400nm (violet) to about
700nm (red) of the electromagnetic spectrum, can adapt to a wide range of illumination
changes and a lot of color saturation (pure white color in proportion.) Although the rod-
shaped cells are able to work on a wide range of illumination, and provide rapid response
to changes in light sensor element, but these rods can not detect color. Called cone cells,
light sensors to provide high-resolution color image components. There are three cone
cells, at different wavelengths to achieve peak sensitivity, the respective red (580nm),
green (540nm) and blue (450nm). Visible spectrum of light at any wavelength will be in
varying degrees, all three types of cone cells in the stimulation of one or more units, we
feel that the color is our nerve and brain processes visual information. Obviously, people
with normal color vision see the wavelengths in the same light, basically feel the same
color. Scientific tests showed that humans can distinguish very subtle color differences, it
is estimated the maximum could reach 1,000 million, the problem is that we do not have
enough words to describe all of these have a slightly different color. Color measurement
principle Figure 1.1 shows the use of color measurement instruments or sensors than the
human eye detect the basic principles of color. The sensor device is high-end equipment,
such as spectrophotometer or the British International Commission on Illumination (CIE)
calibration of the camera, it can be low-end devices, such as RGB color sensors. Figure
1a measuring instruments are usually divided into two categories: color analysis and
metering method. Analysis of the use of color, the device uses sensor with three filters

light from the object (Figure 1.1b). Under normal circumstances, the sensor profile is
optimized, and is therefore very similar to the human eye response. Triple output

sensors, in large measure the color of a narrow wavelength range. Then, microcomputer
equipment requirements through the integration of data obtained to calculate the value of
the triple stimulation. Figure 1c Avago color sensor (Fig. 1d) is the third filter device,
providing color analysis measurements. Sensor output voltage output from the VR, VG,
and VB or analog-digital converted R, G and B digital values. Figure 1d The working
principle of the color sensor is divided into three different types of color sensors: light to
photocurrent conversion, light-to-analog voltage converter, light-to-digital conversion.
The former usually represent the actual color of the sensor input part, because the original
current amplitude is very low light, always require amplification to the optical flow into
the available levels. Therefore, the most practical analog output color sensor at least one
transimpedance amplifier, and provides the voltage output. The color of light to analog
voltage sensor from the back of the color filter array with integrated photodiode current
to voltage conversion circuit (usually a transimpedance amplifier) composition, as shown
in Figure 1.2. Fall of light on each photodiode current is converted into light, the
amplitude depends on the brightness and wavelength of incident light (due to color
filters). Figure 1.2: Light-to-analog voltage converter using the color sensor if no color
filter, a typical silicon photodiode would be visible from the area until the ultra-violet
wavelength region to respond to the infrared part of the spectrum close to the peak
response at 800nm region and between 950nm. Red, green and blue transmission color
filter to reshape and optimize the spectral response of photodiodes. Properly designed
filter will mimic the human eye photodiode array after filtering to provide spectral
response. Each of the three photodiode photodiode photocurrent will use current to
voltage converter, convert VRout, VGout and VBout. There are two color sensing modes:
reflection and transmission sensor sensing. Reflection in the reflective sensing sensors,
color sensors detect a surface or object from the reflected light, light and color sensors are
placed near the target surface. From the light source (such as incandescent or fluorescent
lamps, white LED or calibrated RGB LED module) to leave the light bouncing surface,
measured by the color sensor. Leave the surface reflection color and the color on the
surface. For example, the white light incident on the red surface, will be reflected in red.
Reflecting the impact of red light color sensor, producing R, G and B output voltage. By
interpreting the three-voltage, can determine the color. Since the three output voltage
linearly increased the density of the reflected light, so the color sensor also can measure
the reflection coefficient of a surface or object. Figure 1.3: The color of light reflected
depends on surface reflection and absorption of the color of the color sensor in the
transmission mode of transmission, the sensor toward the light. Filter color sensor with
photodiode array converts the incident light R, G and B light current, and then amplified
and converted to analog voltages. Since all three output will increase linearly with the
optical density increased, so the sensor can measure the color of the light and the total
density. Transmission sensor can be used to determine the color of transparent materials
such as glass and transparent plastics, liquids and gases. In this application, the light
through the transparent medium, and then hit the color sensor. Transparent medium

depends on the color of the color sensor voltage understanding. Figure 1.4: Sensor R, G
and B fall on the sensor output depends on the color of light Figure 1.5: color sensing

sensor values of the three color sensor Analog output voltage directly controls the

2.12.1 Infrared Sensors: Working Principle and Applications

An infrared sensor is an electronic instrument that is used to sense certain characteristics


of its surroundings by either emitting and/or detecting infrared radiation. It is also capable
of measuring heat of an object and detecting motion. Infrared waves are not visible to the
human eye. 

In the electromagnetic spectrum, infrared radiation is the region having wavelengths


longer than visible light wavelengths, but shorter than microwaves. The infrared region is
approximately demarcated from 0.75 to 1000µm. The wavelength region from 0.75 to
3µm is termed as near infrared, the region from 3 to 6µm is termed mid-infrared, and the
region higher than 6µm is termed as far infrared.

Infrared technology is found in many of our everyday products. For example, TV has an
IR detector for interpreting the signal from the remote control. Key benefits of infrared
sensors include low power requirements, simple circuitry, and their portable feature.

2.12.2 Types of Infra-Red Sensors

Infra-red sensors are broadly classified into two types:

 Thermal infrared sensors – These use infrared energy as heat. Their photo
sensitivity is independent of wavelength. Thermal detectors do not require cooling;
however, they have slow response times and low detection capability.
 Quantum infrared sensors – These provide higher detection performance and
faster response speed. Their photo sensitivity is dependent on wavelength. Quantum
detectors have to be cooled so as to obtain accurate measurements. The only
exception is for detectors that are used in the near infrared region.

2.12.3 Working Principle

A typical system for detecting infrared radiation using infrared sensors includes the
infrared source such as blackbody radiators, tungsten lamps, and silicon carbide. In case
of active IR sensors, the sources are infrared lasers and LEDs of specific IR wavelengths.
Next is the transmission medium used for infrared transmission, which includes vacuum,
the atmosphere, and optical fibers.

Thirdly, optical components such as optical lenses made from quartz, CaF2, Ge and Si,
polyethylene Fresnel lenses, and Al or Au mirrors, are used to converge or focus infrared
radiation. Likewise, to limit spectral response, band-pass filters are ideal.

Finally, the infrared detector completes the system for detecting infrared radiation. The
output from the detector is usually very small, and hence pre-amplifiers coupled with
circuitry are added to further process the received signals.

45
2.12.4 Applications

The following are the key application areas of infrared sensors:

 Tracking and art history


 Climatology, meteorology, and astronomy
 Thermography, communications, and alcohol testing
 Heating, hyperspectral imaging, and night vision
 Biological systems, photobiomodulation, and plant health
 Gas detectors/gas leak detection
 Water and steel analysis, flame detection
 Anesthesiology testing and spectroscopy
 Petroleum exploration and underground solution
 Rail safety.

CHAPTER 3 Methodology

In our project we have used WinProladder for PLC programming. Before we explain our
project code lets first discus some basic principles of ladder diagram.

3.1 The Operation Principle of Ladder Diagram

Ladder diagram is a type of graphic language for automatic control system it had been
used for a long period since world war 2. until today, it is the oldest and most popular
language for automatic control systems. Originally there are only few basic elements
available such as A-contact (normally ON), B contact (Normally OFF), output coil.
Timers and Counters. Not until the appearance of microprocessor based PLC, more
elements for ladder Diagram, such as differential contact, retentive coil and other
instructions that a conventional system cannot provide, became available.

The basic operation principle for both conventional and PLC Ladder Diagram is the
same. The main difference between the two systems is that the appearance of the symbols
for conventional Ladder Diagram are more closer to the real devices, while for PLC
system, symbols are simplified for computer display. There are two types of logic system
available for Ladder Diagram logic, namely combination logic and sequential logic.
Detailed explanations for these two logics are discussed below.

Fig: 3.2

48
3.1.2 Combination Logic

Combination logic of the Ladder Diagram is a circuit that combines one or more input
elements in series or parallel and then send the results to the output elements, such as

Coils, Timers/Counters, and other application instructions.

Figure 3.3

The above example

The above example illustrated the combination logic using the actual wiring diagram,
conventional ladder Diagram, and PLC Ladder Diagram. Circuit 1 uses a NO(normally
open) switch that is also called 'A' switch or contact. Under normal condition(switch is
not pressed), the switch contact is at OFF state and the light is off if the switch is pressed,
the contact status turns ON and the light is on, in contrast circuit 2 uses a NC (normally
Close) switch that is all called "B" switch or contact. Under normal condition, the switch
contact is at ON state and the light is on, if the switch is pressed the contact status turns
OFF and the light also turns OFF.

Circuit 3 contains more than one input element. Output Y2 light will turn ON under the
condition when X2 is closed or X3 switches to ON, and X4 must switch ON too.

Operation manual for ladder program simulation
3.2 Features
Can simulate the FATEK PLC ladder program execution without PLC
connection.

With providing single/multiple/continuous scan mode, the execution result


at each scan end can be easily checked.

With providing program address breakpoint and data breakpoint, it is


convenient to check any intermediate execution result and to identify
any data changed.

Provides communication interface allows external program or device (For


example, graphic panel or HMI) to modify or monitor the variable value
during the simulation.

With run time editing feature, during the simulation process the program
can be modified without stop the execution.

3.3 Limitation of program simulation


Besides the I/O operation, most of the instructions can be simulated. When
the ladder program contains the unsupported instruction, the operation of
unsupported instruction will be ignored and will be shown with yellow
background color as follows.

Main Menu: PLC > Simulation


It will enter into the simulation mode after execution.

51
3.4.3 Start execution of program simulation

Main Menu: PLC > Run


After execution, the color of power line of ladder program will become to red
color as the screen shown below:

Fig: 3.6

During the execution, there is a blinking red dot at the left side of status bar.
On the right of the red dot has SC:xx, xx means the number of time have been
scanned. During simulation, can use the status page to monitor or modify the
value of register or discrete point.

3.4.4 Pause of program simulation

Main Menu: PLC > Pause Simulation or the easiest way is to click the space
Bar
At this point, the blinking red dot stop blinking and it will become pink color.

52
3.4.5 Proceed to program simulation

Main Menu: PLC > Resume Simulation or the easiest way is to click the
space bar
At this point, the dot becomes blinking again and the program continues the
operation.

Control scanning

The above pause/Resume program simulation is operated by manual way of


controlling the program execution, which will pause the program execution at
the next scan end point right after you issue the command. But if you would
like to control the exact times of scan execution after pause, you can use set
scan mode to control.

Single scan

Main Menu: PLC > Setup Simulation choose ”single scan”

Fig: 3.7

After set this mode, you can use space bar or


Main menu: PLC >Resume Simulation to start a new scanning work.

53
Multiple scan

Main menu: PLC > Setup Simulation choose “multiple scan”


After selected the mode, you can set number of scans to be performed in the
number of scanning field.

Fig: 3.8

After that, press space bar or


Main menu: PLC > Resume Simulation to start up next scanning work.
When the scan has reached the set number, it will pause the scanning.

Continuous scan

Main menu: PLC > Setup Simulation choose “continuous scan”


This is the default scan mode after enter the simulation.

This is the Ladder Logic Code of the Project. This program gives the PLC to perform the
automatic sorting system. This code works along with 5 Sensors used on conveyor belts.

The inputs X0 and X1 are used to detect the larger items, when both the sensors are ON
at the same time the object is detected and it Sets M0. When M0 is high the timer T50 is
activated for a specific amount of time to open the CD Rom which is connected to the
output Y0 through an SPDT Relay, and also increment the value in the register R0.

When T50 is UP, then another time is activated to close the CD ROM through output Y1.

Similarly the input X2 is used for the small items detection. And the program flow is
exactly the same.

X3 and X4 are used for the Metal and color sensors respectively.

M7 and M8 are used for the motors control from the SCADA, through a GUI application
designed in Win Log .
