Simulação aplicada a uma linha de produção de pães automatizada

Abstract

Automation has become increasingly indispensable. The search for faster, more efficient and quality processes, in general, are what drive the area's growth. Using programming in SFC and ST languages through CODESYS software, it was possible to create a logic capable of performing all the necessary steps that simulate an automated bread production line, from the first activation to the final part of the process visualization. A supervision system was also created using Elipse SCADA software, which communicates via OPC with the virtual PLC present in CODESYS, which allows for more effective tests that are closer to reality. Within the proposed scenario, satisfactory results were obtained from the tools used in the simulation, ensuring the proximity and fidelity of the program to the proposed system.
