Control Lab Report Experiment No. 10

This document provides instructions for an experiment involving programming an Allen-Bradley MicroLogix 1500 Programmable Controller to detect and sort objects on a conveyor belt. The objectives are to design a complete program using relay, timer and counters. The equipment includes a programmable controller, trainer, accessory kit and compressor pump. The procedure involves programming exercises to detect and remove tall and short objects from the conveyor using sensors, timers and counters, with variations in the object order. A lab report is required explaining how each program works.

Exp# 10: An Introduction to Industrial Programmable Controllers Using PC45/ML. (Part III) Objective
Objective of this experiment are Design a complete program using relay, timer and counters.

Equipment list
The PC45/ML module contains following items: 1. Allen-Bradley MicroLogix 1500 Programmable Controller. 2. PC45 Programmable Controller Trainer. 3. PC45 Accessory kit. 4. PC49 Hand held compressor pump.

Procedure
The following programming exercises primarily require that either a tall or short object is detected and then thrown off the conveyor. You should note that Sensor 1 can detect only tall object, while Sensor 2 can detect both short and tall object. Therefore, detecting tall objects are straightforward; however, detecting short objects are not. If the total number of objects is known, then it is easier to detect short objects. Programming Exercise 1: Two objects-one tall and one short-are passing through the conveyor. It is not known which object comes first. Develop a program to detect the tall object and throw it off the conveyor through cylinder 1. Use timers. Programming Exercise 2: Two objects-one tall and one short-are passing through the conveyor. The tall object should follow the short object. Develop a program to detect the short object and throw it off the conveyor through cylinder 2. Use timers. Programming Exercise 3: Two objects-one tall and one short-are passing through the conveyor. The short object should follow the tall object. Develop a program to detect the short object and throw it off the conveyor through cylinder 2. Use 2 timers or 1 timer and 1 counter. Lab Report: Write a lab report explaining how the each program works. Prepared by Shahriyar Masud Rizvi
