Desenvolvimento e integração de interfaces em linhas de produção automatizadas

Abstract

Supervisory systems are real-time control and monitoring systems for industrial processes that use data collected from sensors and field devices to transmit and process this information in a central system. This project aims to describe the development of supervisory interfaces for an automated production line. The project, which will be called the “Cognac Project”, deals with the development of supervisory interfaces for part of the cognac production line, specifically the filtering part at the end of the beverage production process. The Ignition SCADA program was used to develop these interfaces. As a result, a study of how to address the variables used in the PLC program was necessary in order to verify the correct way to include these variables in the software used to develop the supervisory interfaces. It was then found that the inclusion of these variables is done exhaustively, so the creation of a code in Python that makes this process more effective and efficient was carried out and is detailed in this document. This document also presents the result of the SCADA interfaces that were delivered to the operator. These interfaces were adapted to the needs of process supervision so that the result was intuitive and effective interfaces, i.e. easy to use and understand the information contained therein.
