Diseño e implementación de un módulo didáctico basado en Arduino y enfocado en sensores industriales de proximidad

Abstract

The degree project aims to design and implement a didactic model based on Arduino and focused on industrial proximity sensors. The technical project was carried out thanks to the fact that in the instrumentation laboratory of the electronic engineering and automation career there are no modules that focus on the industrial instrumentation part, specifically proximity sensors. For this reason, a didactic module with sensors most used in industries was designed in order to have a little knowledge of how each sensor works and in what processes they can be used. Among the elements used for the elaboration of this project are the following: Arduino controller that does not facilitate the handling of the equipment, industrial proximity sensors, adjustable source, pilot lights, push buttons, and Nextion touch screen. The equipment to be designed will be in the instrumentation laboratory of the Universidad Politécnica Salesiana, it has the benefit of all the students of the Electronic Engineering and Automation career, so that they can easily manipulate through a touch interface and understand how the sensors work and at the same time buying in which industrial process it can be used. Its purpose is to adapt this module to material for purposes involving these instruments.
