Edward A. Castillo, Sheng-Jen Hsieh, Yunyi Wang . Miniaturized Automated Color Sorting System using Programmable Logic Control and Web-based Server. International Journal of Computer Applications. 143, 2 ( Jun 2016), 12-20. DOI=10.5120/ijca2016910015
Abstract
As technology advances, industrial companies and their systems need to be able to adapt swiftly when it comes to rapid production changes to meet the market needs of today for innovative products. Majority of automated industrial systems are controlled with programmable logic controllers (PLCs) that are programmed with ladder logic. With the incorporation of internet control using a Web-Based server to command and control a PLC for an industrial system, great advances can occur due to the internet being an increasable and an important intermediate for distributing information through the World Wide Web. By controlling and commanding a machine from a remote location through a Web-Based server, operating and observing the system can become cheaper and trouble-free. The focus of this study was primarily to construct a miniaturized automated color sorting system to be controlled by a PLC trainer set in order to determine how well a Web-Based server will do with the incorporation of a PLC. Future works include the comparison of the current Web-Based Server that was developed against a different type of Web-Based Server.
