The thesis presents the development and operation of the device for drilling and stacking EIKA thermostat housings. The device is developed for the company ETI Proplast d. o. o., which deals with solutions for the automation of plants, machines and tool construction.
The first part of the thesis presents a description of the device, from scrolling and drilling units to stacking units. The device is controlled by Siemens Simatic S7-1200 programmable logic controller (PLC). In addition to the controller, the device includes a Siemens HMI, which allows modifications of the device parameters and monitoring of its actual status. In addition to the PLC and HMI, frequency converters, a safety module, Festo servo-motor drives, a Fastech linear unit, a SMC valve island and Beckhoff input/output modules are also presented.
The second part of the thesis is dedicated to programming of the device. In addition to the components for the operation of the device, the TIA-Portal V15 programming environment, used for programming the PLC, is presented. The software part from the controller itself to the HMI is also presented.
The results of the thesis are the design of the device and the components used, as well as the creation of a working program.
