Development of PLC based Sequential Pneumatic Punching System

Abstract

Programmable logic sequential pneumatic system is developed for mechanical applications, like sealing, name punching, plate designing, etc. punching machine is considered as inevitable in almost all the industries like mechanical, electronic, food industries and automobile, etc. To print the hallmarks, logos as a brand. In respect to reducing the processing time by upgrading the conventional system to automation by integrating with Programmable logic control (PLC) as the system works with the interfacing of hardware (punching machine) and solenoids to control the actuation sequence. A sequential pneumatic PLC-based automatic punching machine is designed to have great control over the process of punching the hallmarks and logos with an automating feeding system followed by the punching process, which leads to a high production rate and reduces the process lead time, and increases the safety of workers.
