Automatización de una máquina de reacción de poliuretano, para la optimización del proceso de producción en industrias Verton

Abstract

Industries VERTON is a company specializing in the manufacture of sandwich panels for ceiling and wall, decoration in polyurethane, etc. For the manufacture of these products the Polyurethane Reaction Machine must be in optimum working conditions, since it works 24 hours a day. The current control panel of the machine has outdated elements and its electrical system is obsolete so it is prone to have failures production. Therefore the technical staff make a continuous maintenance, it represents losses in production by stopping the machine, as well as maintenance costs. In addition, this control board consumes an excessive amount of electrical energy, since it has many electromechanical elements. Also these elements and their respective connections are not properly labeled, so that if there is an electrical fault in the board it would be very complex to locate it. Due to many electrical problems, VERTON Industries provides the economic resources to design and build a control board to automate the machine in order to reduce maintenance costs that the machine currently represents, to reduce production stoppages and also a lower consumption of electricity.
