Description Générale

The Flexible Manufacturing System for Feeding, Identification, Classification, and Transport, "AE-PLC-FMS7", is a highly adaptable and configurable system designed for the study and application of advanced automation principles within the context of Industry 4.0 and Industry 5.0. This unit integrates key technologies such as automated control, inter-device networking through smart networks, PLC programming of assembly lines, and real-time data analysis, allowing users to explore the capabilities of digitized and connected manufacturing that characterize the Fourth Industrial Revolution and pave the way for the Fifth Industrial Revolution.

It consists of four interconnected stations that perform specific tasks related to feeding, transport, assembly, sorting (dimension, material, and color), screwing, and parts storage. Each of these workstations requires its own PLC from the selected brand (PANASONIC, SIEMENS, ALLEN BRADLEY, MITSUBISHI and/or OMRON), allowing users to explore how advanced control and production concepts are applied in an automated manufacturing line. The workflow is coordinated by a central PLC system (from the same brand chosen for the stations) and an Ethernet network, making the "AE-PLC-FMS7" a comprehensive learning resource for those interested in automation engineering and flexible manufacturing.

The included workstations are:

  • Parts Feeding Workstation, "AE-PLC-A": Starts the cycle by moving base parts with different sizes, colors, and dimensions from the waiting position to the conveyor belt.
  • Linear Transport Workstation, "AE-PLC-T": Receives the parts from the storage workstation and positions them for the next workstation.
  • Parts Identification Workstation, "AE-PLC-SIP": Detects the characteristics of each part to discard any invalid pieces. Valid pieces are placed back on the Linear Transport Workstation, "AE-PLC-T."
  • Sorting Workstation, "AE-PLC-CF", finally, parts with the required color, material, and height patterns are selected based on the code created by the student, while the remaining parts are discarded.

The system allows students and instructors to delve into fundamental concepts of industrial automation. Through its use, students acquire practical skills in designing and operating automated systems, gaining a deep understanding of the coordinated work across the various workstations of a real production line. This configurable system has been carefully designed so that each of its workstations performs specific functions that simulate real industrial processes.

The recommended Automation System Simulation Software, "AE-AS," enables the simulation of industrial processes in both 2D and 3D, providing full control and supervision, allowing users to safely experiment with automation software in a protected environment.
