Automatic Conveyor for Industrial Automation
Abstract
In this project we have to control the conveyor
automatically by sensing the objects placed in the conveyor. Also, by using RPM
sensor we have to control the speed the motor. The number of tags handled by
the conveyor on the whole will be displayed simultaneously along with regulating
the speed of conveyor. This project will save the power of motor operating the
conveyor by regulating the conveyor automation, i.e. the conveyor actuates only
when a tag is sensed.
OBJECTIVES
This Automatic Conveyor for Industrial Automation consists
of two object sensors, rpm sensor, and rpm control circuit which controls the
speed of the motor driving the conveyor. The object sensors which detect the
objects sends signal to the motor driving circuit to on/off the motor.
Description
Dynamic environments pose a challenge to the read
performances of current RPM control systems. Moving tags on a conveyor belt
affect the read performance of a static reader. Our project attempts to
evaluate a static reader identifying moving tags on a conveyor belt.
We propose
an algorithm enabling the conveyor belt to dynamically adjust its speed
according to the load automatically, also it reliably identify tags without
prior knowledge of how tags are distributed on the conveyor belt. We show by
simulations that our algorithm yields more than 99% of tags being successfully
identified, along with trying to maximize the average speed of the conveyor
belt. In addition, the algorithm can be applied for different reader's ranges.
The number of tags handled by the conveyor on the whole will be displayed
simultaneously along with regulating the speed of conveyor. This project will
save the power of motor operating the conveyor by regulating the conveyor
automation, i.e. the conveyor actuates only when a tag is sensed.
