COMPANY PROFILE
Salzer electronics are the manufacturers o world class cam
operated rotary switches
Its currently worth $ 32 billion and according to industry
estimates it has the potential to reach $150 billion
PRODUCTS
1. DC switches
2. Relays
3. Cam Operated Switces
4. Changeover switches
5. Proximity switches
6. Modular switches
7. Sensors
M OPERATED ROTARY SWITCHES
A cam switch is one that employs the rotation of a cam
shaft to operate a number of switching elements
simultaneously
The main areas of operation are in making , breaking
and isolation of power circuits

EMI AUTOMATION MACHINE
This machine is to assemble selected parts of
10 amps
rotary switches by
semi-automation machine i.e. fixed contacts within stage
It is designed to control the industrial process using PLC to
withstand
in
rough
surface,
handle
high
temperature,
vibration , to reduce man power and increase production rate
A Programmable Logic Controller is a digital computer used
for automation of electromechanical process
YSTEM DESIGN
XISTING METHOD
Contacts are assembled within stages manually
100 stages are assembled in one hour and hence
the production rate is less
ROPOSED METHOD
The project is aimed to control the industrial process using PLC
By using PLC it is possible to add or remove the input and output
modules, which is useful for future enhancement
Targeted for 500 stages to be assembled per hour

OFTWARE DETAILS
PLC programs are typically written in a special application on a
personal computer and then downloaded by a direct-connection
cable to the PLC.
IEC 61131-3 currently defines five programming languages for
programmable control systems:

DDER DIAGRAM DESCRIPTION
Rung 1
When the start button is pressed, the contact change its
condition from normally open to normally close
So the current flow will take place on the rung and energize
the output coils (Feeder 1, Feeder 2, Feeder 3) which are
actually solenoids
If we want energize more than one coil(output) in a single
rung, then connect the outputs in parallel form
Rung 2
When the coil feeder 1 is energized, the contact will close
When the sensors sense the coils feeder 1, feeder 2 and
feeder 3 that reaches the maximum position, the contact
read1, read2 and read3 will close then the stage and
Rungfixed
3
contact coil are set.(i.e.,) Gate is open
When the stage coil set, Timer is ON and produce the
delayed output signal according to the preset time period
Here two seconds time delay is given as preset time, so
after two seconds the stage and fixed contact will be reset
Rung 4
When read 1, read 2 and read 3 is ON , and the stage is OFF, the
TIMER2 is ON
When the timer2 produces the delayed signal then the pressing
Rung 5
solenoid will SET
Whenever the pressing solenoid is SET (ON), the contact will
change its condition from normally close to normally open
So that, the coils feeder1, feeder2 and feeder3 will deenergized
Rung 6
When the read 4 is sense pressing solenoid reaches its
maximum level, it will be RESET (OFF)
ADVANTAGES
Withstand in rough surface
Handle high temperature and vibrations
Easy to troubleshoot
Faster response time
Serial communication capability
Less wiring
Easier and faster to make changes
More flexibility
Re-programmable
Add or move the input and output modules
FUTURE ENHANCEMENT
Since the PLC is used as processing unit of the machine, there is a
flexibility to add or remove the input modules as well as output
modules
In future it is possible to remove the existing input/output and
replace by new input/output as per user requirement
