Simulación de un sistema automatizado para el control y monitoreo de la elaboración de la carcasa metálica de los transformadores Moretran.

Abstract

The objective of this project is to simulate a remote automation line, using a SCADA system, focused on the manufacturing of transformers at the Moretran company. During a visit to the plant, the transformer casing manufacturing process was observed. This process is largely carried out by workers who are exposed to the risk of accidents from the industrial machinery they operate. Therefore, the objective of this thesis project is to develop a system for the automated production of metal transformer casings. The visit also allowed for the identification of the equipment that will be used in this process and the potential automation lines to be simulated. The methodology employed is a mixed-methods approach: qualitative for the analysis and synthesis of the system, and qualitative for the analysis of the elements to be used in the development of this proposal. For the design of the SCADA system interface, Siemens' WinCC Runtime Advanced, a visualization software for PC-based control and monitoring systems, was used. The SCADA system developed allows control of the equipment located in the transformer manufacturing plant, ensuring the safety of workers and improving production efficiency.
