INDUSTRIAL PROCESS MONITORING AND CONTROL SYSTEM

The paper presents the applications designed for programmable logic controllers (PLCs) and human-machine interface (HMI), in order to monitor and automate industrial processes. Applications for PLCs are made in the EcoStructure Machine Expert Basic and SoMachine V4.3 programs, and applications for HMI in the Vijeo Designer 6.2 program. The industrial process is coordinated by the TM241CEC24R machine that monitors and controls the TM221CE16R PLCs in the liquids pumping, bottling and transport stations. The paper describes the monitoring and control system in terms of hardware and software. The achieving of an efficient monitoring and control system contributes to obtaining a predictive maintenance that leads to the proper functioning of industrial processes.
