Abstract

A Production Monitoring System (PMS) is a set of equipment placed on a production line to monitor the status of a process or manufacturing line. It collects, process, stores and displays production information. Nowadays, with the rapid grow of technologies, the conventional PMS is not suggested to be used in industries. This method is not efficient because it‟s time consuming and the collected data are not reliable and inaccuracies due to human errors and intervention. Hence, an automated PMS project is proposed. The automated PMS is fully automated in data collection, processing and recording. Basically, the aims of this project is to design a Control Unit /data path by translating the Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) concept into a set of logic units that described using Very High speed integrated circuit Hardware Description Language (VHDL) and to be implemented in a programmable digital logic chip called Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA). Normally, the performance and efficiency of a machine are measured by using OEE. It‟s a concept of determining the performance indicators of a production line, which involves arithmetic and logic operations for data processing. In conclusion, the project is efficient because it‟s useful and fully automated yet the price is reasonable, portable and applicable to many industries.
