The thesis describes a system for automatic product inspection and control of a packaging machine. The system is one of the projects of a Slovenian company involved in industrial automation. At the customer's request, we have developed a system that uses a camera to scan the product layout in the packaging and read the QR code value on the product. The information is transferred from the camera to a programmable logic controller, which is responsible for controlling the entire system.
The first part of the thesis describes the software and hardware used to control the packaging device.
The second part of the thesis describes the construction of the system. This section describes the configuration of the camera, the writing of the program in the TIA Portal programming environment and the creation of a simple user interface. This part also describes the problems that we encountered during the construction of the system and their solutions.
