Implementación de una estación para el control de calidad del vaciado de cuerpos sólidos con robot industrial en el laboratorio de automatización de la Facultad de Mecánica.

Abstract

The present thesis work focuses on the implementation of the station for quality control of the emptying of solid bodies with industrial robot in the Automation Laboratory in Faculty of Mechanics. The desing and sizing of this station was done with the help of Solidworks software, which enabled the selection of the necessary elements and a virtual modeling of the same. The quality control process focuses on the measurement of the casting of aluminum specimens; consists of five stages; starts with the operation of a conveyor belt, a sensor detects the presence of the part bearing plate, a pneumatic system stops the progress of the parts and expels them. The movement of the belt is ejected by a three-phase reduction motor and its speed is controlled by the SINAMICS G 110 frequency inverter. The robot measures the emptying of each part through a digital-analog probe if it is within the previously set range are sent by a trajectory and those that do not comply by another and so the process continues. The TIA PORTAL V13 software, a SIMATIC S7-1500 PLC and a SIMATIC S7-1200 PLC a KTP 600 touchpad, with allows the communication or human-machine interface, were used to comply with this process. The communication of all these devices is done via Ethernet. The Kawasaki RS 03N robot was fitted with the probe for quality control, the robotic arm consists of six degrees of freedom and is used for medium loads. The laboratory practice guides and the operation and maintenance manual of the laboratory were developed.
