Bancada didática de automação industrial: esteira seletora de itens

Abstract

Automation has grown more and more within industries and businesses, large and small. This growth is divided between several areas, such as systems, logistics, industries and customer service. Along with the population growth, there was a consumption growth, demanding that the productivity of the industries be increased. To improve the productivity of an industry, automated plants are a great alternative. Therefore, it is necessary for an electrical engineer to have solid training in this area, which only tends to grow. But often only theoretical knowledge is not enough to cover all the necessary knowledge. In addition, the Electrical Engineering course at UFSM-CS does not have a good infrastructure in the field of automation. When the two problems are combined, a very large learning deficit is created. To help solve this problem, this course completion work aims to create a didactic automation bench, where an item selector mat was developed. It can be fully programmable and editable by the user.
