PLC based Drink Dispenser System

Develop ladder logic program for PLC-based Drink Dispenser System according to the logic given below,

Press the power button to activate the power supply as shown in the figure.
Put manually glass (or a cup) on conveyor to hold up drink A/B/C as shown in the below figure.
Press a one-button from A/B/C whatever you choose on the available types of drinks (It is toggle type switch).
Press the start button from the local panel.
The glass (or a cup) moves from limit switch 2 to 4 and stops the conveyor when glass reaches the appropriate limit switch, which we select from the A/B/C toggle switch.
Glass (or a cup) fill by drink A/B/C for 15 sec.(as per glass size) and conveyor again start-up to glass not reach limit switch -5.

Dispenser PLC Program

Program Description:

Rung 1:

I: 0.0 and I: 0.1 respectively start and stop press button to control the power supply with latch output.

Rung 2:

Put the glass on L1 (I:0.4) place, which is converted from NO to NC, Press the Drink selection button from A/B/C, respectively enable I:0.9/I:0.10/I:0.11.

Press the Start PB to enable NC (I:0.2) to start the conveyor (O:0.1) until any solenoid valve (O:0.2/O:0.3/O:0.4) not energized and Stop PB(I:0.3) not enable.

After completion of the filling process, conveyor again starts until not reach up to L5 place (I:0.8).

Rung 3:

Conveyor drives the glass up to L2 place as per selected drink type from A. enable the solenoid A (O:0.2) until timer (T:1.DN) bit not enable.

Rung 4:

Fill the drink A for 15 sec (assume constant as per glass size) start the Timer enable the SOV A up to 15 sec and respective timer down bit control the SOV ON/OFF (solenoid A (O:0.2)) state.

Rung 5:

Conveyor drives the glass up to L3 place as per selected drink type from B. enable the solenoid B (O:0.3) until timer (T:2.DN) bit not enable.

Rung 6:

Fill the drink B for 15 sec (assume constant as per glass size) start the Timer enable the SOV B up to 15 sec and respective timer down bit control the SOV ON/OFF (solenoid B (O:0.3)) state.

Rung 7:

Conveyor drives the glass up to L4 place as per selected drink type from C. enable the solenoid C (O:0.4) until timer (T:3.DN) bit not enable.

Rung 8:

Fill the drink C for 15 sec (assume constant as per glass size) start the Timer enable the SOV C up to 15 sec and respective timer down bit control the SOV ON/OFF (solenoid C (O:0.4)) state.

PLC Program for Mixing Tank

Create a ladder diagram for controlling a batch mixing process. Implement a PLC program for mixing tank or Mixing Process using PLC Ladder Logic. PLC Program for Mixing Tank Fig : Mixing tank A tank is used to mix two liquids. The required control circuit operates as follows: A. When the START button is pressed, solenoids A and B energize. This permits the two liquids to begin ﬁlling the tank. B. When the tank is ﬁlled, the ﬂoat switch trips. This de-energizes solenoids A and B and starts the motor used to mix the liquids together. C. The motor is permitted to run for 1 minute. After 1 minute has elapsed, the motor turns off and solenoid C energizes to drain the tank. D. When the tank is empty, the ﬂoat switch de- energizes solenoid C. E. A STOP button can be used to stop the process at any point. F. If the motor becomes overloaded, the action of the entire circuit will stop. G. Once the circuit has been energized, it will continue to operate until it is manually stopped. Solution...

Ferrules and Cross Ferruling

Ferrules are identification labels provided for every wire terminations in an instrument, equipment, or electrical/instrumentation control panels. These tube-shaped sleeves can be inserted easily on each individual wire in a multi-core cable. In earlier days fixed digits/letters are used as ferrules, but now Instrumentation engineers/technicians prints out desired ferrules by using a ferrule printing machine. Typical Ferrule The numbers/ letters on the ferrules will be given as per the approved electrical hook up or loop diagrams. This helps technicians to easily identify a particular loop/wiring from a series of terminal blocks and to troubleshoot the desired terminal connection. Separate numbers on the ferrules distinguish the positive and negative polarities of wires, thus ensure the polarity protection of the instrument. Cross Ferruling As a wire is connected on its both ends, it is quite useful to use a cross reference method for wire identification. Unlike normal ferru...

What is Relay? How it Works? Types, Applications, Testing

We use relays for a wide range of applications such as home automation, cars and bikes (automobiles), industrial applications, DIY Projects, test and measurement equipment, and many more. But what is Relay? How a Relay Works? What are the Applications of Relays? Let us explore more about relays in this guide. What is a Relay? A Relay is a simple electromechanical switch. While we use normal switches to close or open a circuit manually, a Relay is also a switch that connects or disconnects two circuits. But instead of a manual operation, a relay uses an electrical signal to control an electromagnet, which in turn connects or disconnects another circuit. Relays can be of different types like electromechanical, solid state. Electromechanical relays are frequently used. Let us see the internal parts of this relay before knowing about it working. Although many different types of relay were present, their working is same. Every electromechanical relay consists of an consists of an Elect...
