Abstract

The work presented here outlines the development of a programmable logic controller (PLC) based automatic gate. The inconveniences encountered in gate operations have called for an immense search for solutions. The programmable logic controller based automatic gate offers everything necessary to put an end to these inconveniences as it incorporates the ladder diagram. Specifically, the system described in this paper monitors the entrance gate. The automatic gate senses any vehicle approaching it. It automatically opens, waits for vehicle to move, and closes after the vehicle has left. The automatic gate described here can be applied to automate the entrances to parking lots of residential homes, organizations, automobile terminus, and public car parks. It used to avoid the stress of manually opening and closing the gate. The technology used eliminates gate monitoring and manning by human beings. The gate uses a state-of-the-art entry system. The gates have to perform gyrations - open, auto-reverse, stop, fully close and fully stop. The automatic gate developed in this project is unique in that it is controlled by software, which can be modified any time the system demands a change.
