Abstract

The Flexible manufacturing system (FMS 200) is an automated system that is able to control the process with little or no human labor. It is consists of 8 stations,however, this project will only focus on the fifth station of the system. The aim is to upgrade the station 5 of the Flexible Manufacturing System (FMS 200) using Human Machine Interface (HMI) and make selection of the covers based on the material,height and colors. Modification and added up programs will be done using exProgrammer.This program is more towards ladder programs. When the programs have been modified, the instruction to transfer to the Programmable Logic Controller(PLC) mounted on the station will be executed. As for interfacing process between Personal computer with the Programmable Terminal, cable ports are needed to transferring screen data. The Human Machine Interface (HMI) will replace the pushbuttons mounted on the station as the controller. The screen data is designed using CX-Designer, a software tool to allow the users to enhance the operational system. With the help of the screen data, this will ease the users to operate the system in a quick time by just a touch on the screen.
