An Automatic Fluid Filling Mechanism Using Delta PLC

Abstract This project is carried out using Programmable Logic Controller, which is the main component of the proposed system. It is an industrial oriented machine system used to fill water in the empty bottles automatically, which reduce the usage of man power, low power consumption, accuracy. The system is implemented in various soft drink industries, water packaging industries and food industries. The filling process gets efficient, when our filling machine is combined with an automatic conveyor to increase the speed of filling process. The conveyor belt roll-up the empty bottles and an analog timer is used to adjust the timing of the water flow. The empty bottles are sensed by photo electric sensors and it detects the empty bottles present in the conveyor, stops the conveyor, then the valve is opened up to fill the bottles. This sequential process will continue for each and every water bottle filling process. A Programmable Logic Controller machine is preferred due to its and cost efficient high ratings. The proposed method will reduce the cost for small scale industries and help them in setting up and an automated decision for filling water bottles.
