概要

The Flexible Manufacturing System for Transport, Assembly, Pressing, Selection, Screwing, and Storage, "AE-PLC-FMS1", 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 nine interconnected workstations that perform specific tasks, including feeding, assembly, verification, pressing, mounting, and storing (dimension, material, and color) parts. 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-FMS1" a comprehensive learning resource for those interested in automation engineering and flexible manufacturing.

The included workstations are:

  • Part Feeding Workstation, "AE-PLC-A": Initiates the cycle by moving base parts from the waiting position onto the conveyor belt.
  • Linear Transport Workstation, "AE-PLC-T": Receives parts from the storage station and positions them for transfer to the next station.
  • Mounting Workstation "AE-PLC-M": Adds a second part to the base, verifying dimensions before proceeding.
  • Automatic Pressing Workstation "AE-PLC-P": Uses a hydraulic cylinder to secure parts together, consolidating the base and additional components.
  • Rotary Table Workstation: Feeding, Quality Control and Assembly (dimensional study), "AE-PLC-MR1": Performs dimensional verification of parts.
  • Rotary Table Workstation: Feeding, Quality Control, and Assembly (material and color study), "AE-PLC-MR2": Checks the part’s material and color for quality.
  • Automatic Screwdriving Workstation, "AE-PLC-AT": Places four screws into the base parts for completion.
  • Robotic Arm Workstation, "AE-BR": Performs the screwing process with an integrated automatic drill.
  • Storage Workstation, "AE-PLC-AL": Picks up the base parts with an automatic handler and places them in the designated storage area.

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.
