This is the PLC Program for\u00a0Automatic Empty Bottle detection. This logic is usually found in packing industries.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Automatic Empty Bottle detection<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Problem Description<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

After completion of the filling process, the bottles are moved on the conveyor for packing process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here our objective is to Detect and remove if any empty bottle found on the conveyor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Implement PLC program<\/a> for this application using ladder language.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Problem Solution<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For this application, we will use S7-300 PLC and TIA portal software.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this example, we used two proximity sensors<\/a> for bottle detection and empty bottle detection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One proximity sensor is calibrated such that it detects only empty bottle and other one is calibrated such that it detects all bottle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Conveyor used for bottle transportation. Cylinder is used to throw empty bottle out of the conveyor<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
