Operator Machine Control using Siemens PLC and HMI

Abstract Details

2018, Master of Science, University of Toledo, Electrical Engineering.
Technical advancement in the industry has changed the lives of people directly in last few decades. Industrial revolution has contributed significantly to this change. Whether it is the matter of mass production, safety, or other social aspects like social economy and jobs for humans, it has affected everyday life. People are again expecting major changes in the industrial automation.The new generation of revolution that is supposed to start in next few years (tentatively 2020) has given the name Industry 4.0. Researchers and engineers are constantly focusing to make the smart devices and systems to support this concept. This industrial era is expected to embrace cyber-physical systems containing smart devices as its components and with the industrial internet of things (IIOT). This documents talks about an attempt to automate a simple paper rolling machine using Siemen's S7-1200 processor and the HMI developed. The second section is about using the new platform to develop dynamic HMI that can assist to implement the concept of Industry 4.0. Literature review discusses about some of the transactions papers and other papers in renowned journals which talks about the concept, design principles, and aspects of the next generation of industrial revolution. Towards the end, the document has the results of the projects, some discussions, conclusions, and then some recommendations for future development of the project.
