Implementação de um sistema automático de embalagem de fitas adesivas para uma indústria do polo industrial de Manaus

Abstract

This article has as objective the development of the electric system of a technical solution for a Manaus industrial pole’s company, of the adhesive tapes segment, looking for to automate the packaging process, based on machinery capable of automatically allocating various tape models already labeled in standard cartons in a automatic way. The machine is based in a industrial automation with PLC, servo mechanism, sensors and frequency inverters, where a set of sensors sends the command to the Programmable Logic Controller to move a mechanical part via servo motors with the intend to capture a set of tapes and take them to a parallel conveyor belt. of standard cardboard prepared to receive the ribbons. Then a pneumatic system is actuated to dump the tapes. The design aims to replace manual tape packing operation with one that has less physical effort and better working conditions. Therefore, ergonomic analysis methods will be employed to assess the impact of automation on the process.
