Propuesta de implementación para un sistema automatizado de transportación y pesaje de fundas con camarones a través de una interfaz HMI.

Abstract

The Project started with a direct observation of the transportations and weighing process of the product and proceeded to search the information regarding the study subject; having determined the objectives to be met during the thesis study development. The automated system for the transportation and weighing of shrimp casings has been made to improve production control, putting the company at the Forefront with the Ecuadorian industries, both in terms of quality improvement, as well as the increase of the economic income of the company. The LARDEMA business group dedicated to the breeding and commercialization of shrimp was selected, carrying out the work in the San Juan module in Manta – Ecuador. A shrimp transported control system was chosen that allows weighing, establishing ranges to control the weigh of the product. It is intented to intervene in the process of transportation and weighing of shrimp casings, to maintain a quality standard, reducing time, costs and improvements in production control. The S7 – 200 was used, the human machine interface (HMI) was implemented in the propietary software contemplating the rules for the control and monitoring the system conditions for the operator.
