The thesis shows the process of automation of a hydraulic press for rubber vulcanization with the use of Siemens Logo PLC. The goal and purpose of the thesis is to show how the press was reworked and to ensure better performance, efficiency and flexibility.
The introductory part presents the press and the modes it has to operate in, it also presents the software and the hardware that replaces the relay control system.
The main part presents the wiring diagram of the elements inside the control panel and the development of the program code and the interface. It also describes the transfer of the program code to the PLC.
The concluding part presents the change of parameters on the Gefran 400 regulator.
The results of the thesis show that automatization of the hydraulic press increased its productivity, robustness and flexibility which was the purpose of the thesis.
