Abstract

Nowadays, with the revolution IR 4.0, most industry have used the automatic machines. The purpose of this project is to study about prediction maintenance for sensor and actuator by using Programmable Logic Controller (PLC). Sensor and actuator most important for industry that use the automation system. Besides, one of the limitations is human ability to find out the damage of the sensor and actuator. These systems can be estimating the lifespan of sensor and actuator to avoid the automatic machine failure during the operation. The PLC is used as a medium in giving instruction to MPS where the PLC programmed to control each step of MPS. MPS is an automatic machine which it has a sensor and actuator for automation system in the industry. The PLC count and store the data of cycle sensor and actuator, then sent to HMI screen. Human Machine Interface (HMI) is a graphical interface that allows humans and machines interact. HMI screen display the state of lamp for condition of sensor and actuator. The state of lamp depends on the range of lifespan of sensor and actuator that has been set. For example, the user needs to set the range of minimum, moderate and maximum of the average lifespan, so if the value of cycle sensor and actuator at the minimum range, the HMI screen display the green lamp. If the value of cycle sensor and actuator at the moderate range, the HMI screen display the yellow lamp and if the value of cycle sensor and actuator at the maximum range, the HMI screen display the red lamp. As conclusion, this project may help the industry in preparation of machine maintenance. Moreover, it helps in reducing production loss and cost of spare parts.
