摘要PLC控制是目前工业上最常用的自动化控制方法,由于其控制方便,能够承受恶劣的环境,因此,在工业上优于单片机的控制。PLC将传统的继电器控制技术、计算机技术和通信技术融为一体,专门为工业控制而设计,具有功能强、通用灵活、可靠性高、环境适应性强、编程简单、使用方便以及体积小、重量轻、功耗低等一系列优点,因此在工业上的应用越来越广泛。本文主要讲述PLC在材料分拣系统中的应用,利用可编程控制器(PLC),设计成本低、效率高的材料自动分拣装置。以PLC为主控制器,结合气动装置、传感技术、位置控制等技术,现场控制产品的自动分拣。系统具有自动化程度高、运行稳定、精度高、易控制的特点,可根据不同对象,稍加修改本系统即可实现要求。关键词:可编程控制器,分拣装置,控制系统,传感器ABSTRACTPLCcontrolisthemostcommonlyusedindustrialautomationcontrolmethod,becauseofitsconvenientcontroltowithstandanadverseenvironment,itisbetterthanMCUcontrolintheindustrial.PLCtraditionalrelaycontroltechnology,computerandcommunicationtechnologiesareintegratedspecificallyforindustrialcontrolanddesign,havestrongfunction,commonflexible,highreliabilityandenvironmentaladaptability,andprogrammingsimple,easytouseandsmallsize,lightweight,aseriesoflow-poweradvantagesinindustrialapplicationsbecomemoreextensive.ThispaperfocusesonthePLCinthecannedbeverageproduction,Thedesignofanautomaticsortingdevicewithlowcostandhighefficiencyispresentedinthepaper,whichregardsprogrammablelogiccontroller(PLC)asthemastercontrollerandcombinespneumaticdevice,sensingtechnology,positioncontrolandothertechnologytoimplementautomaticselectingoftheproductslive.Thedeviceischaracteristicofhighautomation,steadyrunning,highprecisionandeasycontrol,whichcanfulfilltherequirementaccordingtodifferentsituationswithlittlemodifications.Keywords:programmablelogiccontroller,sortingdevice,controlsystem,sensorsI目录摘要..............................................................................................................................................................I目录..............................................................................................................................................................II绪论..............................................................................................................................................................1第1章材料分拣装置结构及总体设计.......................................................................................................21.1材料分拣装置工作过程概述.............................................................................................................21.2系统的技术指标.................................................................................................................................31.3系统的设计要求.................................................................................................................................3第2章控制系统的硬件设计.......................................................................................................................52.1系统的硬件结构.................................................................................................................................52.2系统关键技术.....................................................................................................................................52.3检测元件与执行装置的选择.................................................................................
