PJSC State Food and Grain Corporation of Ukraine
Development, production, installation and debugging of a grain weighing system.
Primary goal:
Modernize the automatic scale control system.
Scope of work:
- Development of design documentation for an automated grain weighing system.
- Complete set of controls.
- Development of algorithmic support.
- Software development.
- Installation of automation equipment.
- Software installation.
- Commissioning works.
Technical means:
- Weight dispenser WE-2107M.
- Simatic S7-1200 controller.
- Operator station based on a computer.
The core of the measuring system is the WE 2107M measuring controller with an indicator, which receives information from strain gauges and turns into a digital signal. The weight value is transmitted via the RS 485 interface to the S7-1200 control controller to perform discrete product weighing operations.
To carry out an accounting task, processed and prepared data on the weight value are transmitted via TCP/IP to an operator station with a specialized software application installed on it that visualizes and controls the technological process.
A convenient operator interface also allows for process control and selective accounting of products by type of grain and time periods, minimizing the influence of the “human factor”, has self-diagnostic functions for outputting technological messages about the status of the work process, the condition of the equipment and does not require much time to master.
Result:
As a result of the work done, the customer received a reliable modern accounting system. The databases are stored in the form of SQL server tables, which will allow them to be further integrated into standard accounting programs. The software allows you to control the scales from any client station.
