Repotenciación de los módulos PLC del Laboratorio de Tecnología Industrial de la ESFOT.

Abstract

Within the Industrial Technology Laboratory (LTI) of the Technologists Training School (ESFOT), the PLC didactic modules did not have a Human Machine Interface (HMI), in addition the digital inputs and outputs were limited to those of the S7- PLC. 1200 and no analog outputs were available. These specifications limited the practices and workshops to simulate more complex industrial processes, in addition to not being able to know the status of the process in real time. The objective of the degree project is to repower and expand the features of three PLC didactic modules, for which it was necessary to modify the structure of the cabinets and thus be able to install the HMI KTP700 Basic screens, SM 1234 analog input and output modules and SM modules. 1223 of digital inputs and outputs. With these implements each PLC has a total of 16 digital inputs, 14 digital outputs, 6 analog inputs and 2 analog outputs. This will help students from careers related to the area of industrial control and instrumentation to develop better applications and expand their knowledge when doing their internships at the LTI of ESFOT.
