Diseño e implementación de una módulo de control para servomotores a través de PLC y HMI enfocado al desarrollo de prácticas en el Laboratorio de servomecanismos de la UPS

Abstract

Nowadays, industries have been implementing various elements related to process automation, including servomotors, as they offer great advantages such as precision, efficiency, and speed. They are being controlled through a PLC, a servo driver, and a user-friendly interface allowing monitoring and parameterizing of the ongoing process. Due to this, the present degree project titled "Design and Implementation of a Control Module for Servomotors through PLC and HMI Focused on the Development of Practices in the UPS Servomechanisms Laboratory" contemplates that knowledge about these types of actuators, their programming, and their communication methods is indispensable in student life as it allows opening new doors to the industry through practices focused on industrial processes aiming to perform a realistic simulation of the same. To achieve this goal, first, the respective electrical and mechanical calculations were made, then simulated in SolidWorks and CadeSimu software where the feasibility of the structure and circuit was corroborated, and finally, the system was assembled and evaluated for the drafting of the practices and user manual.
