The production lines "Bottling" and "Packaging" exist alongside other lines in a brewery and are connected to one another in the production chain. The production lines consist of multiple units.
You configure plant objects in the plant view from the plant object types based on the data blocks.
Screens must be configured for all plant objects relevant for the monitoring. In addition, a screen navigation should be set up so that the user can navigate from one plant object screen to another in runtime using the "Plant overview" control. The production value should also be monitored, for example the temperature in the filling tank or the weight of the product after the filling. Make sure to notify the operator in case of deviations.
The relevant production values must be logged for quality assurance purposes and for Food Authority audits.
The "Bottling" production line consists of the following units:
-
Conveyor belt 1 ("Conveyor_1")
-
Robot 1 ("Robot_1"): Places the bottles on the conveyor.
-
Filling tank ("Filling Tank"): Fills the bottles, the temperature in the filling tank is monitored.
-
Robot 2 ("Robot_2"): Closes the bottles.
-
Robot 3 ("Robot_3"): Performs quality checks (weight and light barrier)
The bottles are sorted from the conveyor belt into beverage crates on the "Packaging" production line.
The "Packaging" production line consists of the following units:
-
Conveyor belt 2 ("Conveyor_2"): Makes the filled bottles available.
-
Conveyor belt 3 ("Conveyor_3"): Conveys filled crates.
-
Robot 4 ("Robot_4"): Places the crates on the conveyor belt.
-
Robot 5 ("Robot_5"): Places the bottles in the crates.
-
Robot 6 ("Robot_6"): Places the crates on the pallet.
-
Robot 7 ("Robot_7"): Performs quality checks (weight and light barrier)
