title: AUTOMATED HEIGHT BASED BOX SORTING SYSTEM USING PLC

title: DEVELOPMENT OF AUTOMATIC SORTING CONVEYOR BELT USING PLC
abstract: The automatic sorting process is used to differentiate the products manufactured in an industry to further direct it towards packaging according to height. In the paper, products are compared using diffused beam type photo electric sensor. In the paper the system based on conveyor belt model to sort the objects which are of ideal selected height is described. The control strategy for automating the sorting process which was earlier done by manual labour involving slow, inaccurate and erroneous outputs is implemented through programmable logic controller (PLC) as a solution to all these problems. In the paper, development of ladder logic program in MicroWIN software for the PLC which operates the pneumatic actuator for sorting the objects is described. It is found that HMI and SCADA using softwares WinCC Basic in TIA Portal and WinCC Professional respectively makes the model more user friendly and efficient with controls and trends on a single screen.

title: PLC Based Automated Object Sorting System
abstract: In this advance era, automatic sorting is highly desirable in approximately every industry. Its main objective is to reduce human efforts and time which can ultimately raise its efficiency. However, perfect sorting machine is still in progress which should be flexible and compatible in design. In this work, the proposed sorting machine is able to corporate compatibility by using conveyer belt and proximity sensors to detect type of material i.e. wood, metal or plastic and also identifies size of material in three different ranges and finally sort the material separately in assigned basket by using pneumatic cylinder (controlled by Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) The proposed multi sorting system is able to sort nine objects of nine different ranges are sorted with 100% accuracy within the time interval of 0.5 seconds. The proposed model could be implemented in any industry whose applications are mechatronics based engineering system. This model can also produce list of sorted objects through enabled sorting program commands.

title: Lift Automation and Material Sorting Using PLC
abstract: In this modern world, automation plays an important role in development. Industries are nowadays incomplete without automation. This paper explains about the sorting of materials of different sizes. Based on the requirements, any industry develops materials of different sizes and it will not be economically feasible if the separation is done manually. Labour cost, human effort and chances of human error will increase in this process of sorting. To overcome these disadvantages, automation plays a very important role which makes it economically feasible and time saving. Chances of human error will also minimize. This paper is basically about the sorting of medium sized objects to one level and large sized objects to another level through vertical upward movement of lift by using Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) and Supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA)

title: Building Color Sensor Based on Image Processing Technology for Automatic Color Object Sorting Using PLC System
abstract: A modern industry for mass production demand the automation is become key for high production with less human cost. Product sorting process one of most important area needs to be a fully automatic process with less human errors for sorting products. In this research we building a color sensor based on image processing to identifying color object then using PLC to sort these products with higher accuracy and automatically running process. In this project we building A small conveyor belt that transfer 4 different color object and using raspberry pi with camera to act as color sensor that transfer input signal to PLC according to PLC software the PLC generating output signal to drive CD drives to eject each object from the belt to color box that belongs to it also displaying the system number of object in same color using HMI for monitoring and control.

title: Automatic Parcel Sorting System based on PLC

title: Automatic Sorting in Process Industries using PLC
abstract: Sorting is an important thing in which any items or products can be differentiated based on their size, height and color. In order to sort items, we need to be able to compare them, i.e. to determine whether the object coming through the conveyor is smaller, greater, or equal to the respected height. Here we are going to do a simple object sorting system using the Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) The system consists of a conveyor model in which the sorting process takes place. The product will be coming through the conveyor system to the sensing part, based on the height of the object the product will be sorted through the conveyor system by using the Programmable Logic System (PLC) KeywordsConveyor, Sorting, Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) Sensor

title: Model Of Metal Sorting Conveyor System Using Siemens S7 1200 PLC
abstract: The automatic sorting system has been reported to be complex and a global problem. This is because of the inability of sorting machines to incorporate flexibility in their design concept. This research therefore designed and developed an automated sorting metal object of a conveyor belt. The developed automated sorting machine is able to incorporate flexibility and separate species of metal objects and at the same time move objects automatically to the basket as defined by the regulation of the Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC) with an inductive proximity sensor to detect a value range of objects. The result obtained shows that steel/metal is sorted into correct position with time of 10s. The proposed developed model of this research that is implemented with Siemens s7 1200 PLC and TIA portal v13.

title: Development of Automatic Material Sorting Machine Based on PLC
abstract: Automatic material sorting is one of important links in assembly line work of manufacturing industry and logistics industry. The automatic sorting machine designed and developed in this work was comprehensively controlled by air pressure, mechanical drive, PLC and touch screen. Aiming at solving problems of low sorting efficiency, high error rate, etc. of manual sorting, this machine could improve manufacturing effectiveness and reduce product cost for enterprises. The machine was able to sort metal and plastic articles in different sizes. Transporting materials with conveyor belt, this machine could identify different material textures and sizes with photovoltaic sensor and magnetic sensor. Then, sorted materials could be placed in corresponding positions after being grabbed with pneumatic robotic manipulator with three degrees of freedom.

title: Design and control of multifunctional sorting and training platform based on PLC control
abstract: Electromechanical integration, as a multi disciplinary subject, has been paid much attention by universities and is widely used in the automation production of enterprises. Aiming at the problem of the lack of control among enterprises and the lack of training among colleges and universities, this paper presents a design of multifunctional sorting training platform based on PLC control. Firstly, the structure of the platform is determined and three dimensional modeling is done. Then design the platform's aerodynamic control and electrical control. Finally, realize the platform sorting function through PLC programming and configuration software development. The training platform can be used to design the practical training experiment, which has a strong advance and pertinence in the electromechanical integration teaching. At the same time, the platform makes full use of modular thinking to make the sorting modules more flexible. Compared with the traditional training platform, its teaching effect is more s.
