Filling is the process in which a machine packages liquid products such as water, cold beverages, etc. This method includes placing bottles on a conveyor belt and filling the bottles one at a time. The purpose of this paper is to describe methods for filling more than one bottle at a time. In a transport system, the stepper motor is used for its efficiency. Includes user-defined volume selection at the desired level.
Filling is controlled by PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) using the ladder logic method. In the bottle filling system, the PLC obtains feedback from the sensor and controls the synchronization of the solenoid valve as well as controls the conveyor belt. When programming the PLC, the entire system is controlled. The sensor is the most important part for filling bottles. Usually in all automation industries, PLC is considered as the heart of any system. The whole system becomes more flexible, time saving and easy to use. Each result leads to the conclusion that the operation of PLC in is very inspiring.
The prototype was built primarily by combining mechanical design and electrical designs. The system requires three external DC power supplies for the input output devices, two AC power supplies for the pump and PLC supply, and a 9V battery for the buzzer.
