Diseño y simulación de un dosificador y mezclador de colores mediante TIA PORTAL y HMI para aplicaciones industriales

Abstract

The purpose of this degree work is to design and simulate a system that allows color mixing, addressing the problem of color mixing present in the industry. In order to achieve this objective, specific objectives were proposed, which include analyzing color mixing simulation models for the selection of the model to be developed, performing the KOP programming in TIA Portal, simulating an intuitive HMI interface for the monitoring and control of the process, and evaluating through simulation the stages and equipment involved in the color mixing process. This degree work seeks to contribute to the industrial field, where accurate color mixing is essential for the manufacture of products such as paints, inks and chemicals. The simulation of a PLC programmable logic controller and an HMI interface, shows the automation of a process and contributes to reduce possible errors that may occur at the time of mixing colors. The simulation using SIMATIC S7-PLC-SIM will allow to evaluate the stages of the process and the equipment involved, providing data that will help to evaluate the process in a simulated way.
