PLC-SCADA Based Monitoring Control System of industrial automation

ABSTRACT:
This project is implemented for the monitoring and control system of multiple machines based on programmable logic controller (PLC) technology. Also, the implementation of the hardware and software. speed control and operating timing of machines obtained from the tests on performance are also provided. The PLC correlates the operational parameters to the speed requested by the user and monitors the system during normal operation and under trip conditions. Tests of the multiple machines system driven by inverter and controlled by PLC prove a higher accuracy in speed regulation as compared to a conventional V/f control system. The efficiency of PLC control is increased at high speeds up to 95% for the speed control and switching of multiple machines. Thus, PLC proves themselves as a very versatile and effective tool in industrial control of electric drives.

1. INTRODUCTION:
A multi-machine control (MMC) system for automatic control of the speed control and time operated systems has been executed on a recently delivered sixth-generation. The MMC allows full automatic control of these systems from one operator using one PLC. This article will discuss the control system and machine hardware and software and how the development process has taken this technology from concept to a multiple machines that add value, efficiency and safety. MMC is a software tool designed to improve trip-in and trip-out operations, focusing mainly on safety and efficiency. There are other advantages, such as less wear and tear and more constant tripping speeds. By allowing the PLC to carry out speed control and controlling all the machines simultaneously, one operator can perform tripping faster and safer than what three operators could previously do. A fixed sequence is also more predictable, thus increasing safety on the machines. When they are familiarized with the sequence, they will know what each machine will do next. In contrast, with several operators controlling different machines, there is an uncertainty as to how the machines will move next Wear and tear on the machines is reduced because MMC operates each piece of equipment in an optimal manner. More constant and predictable speeds are achieved because MMC does not tire out, nor is it very susceptible to the variety of operator experience. As long as the operator is

maintaining the speed, acknowledging certain stages in the tripping operation, MMC will handle the machine in the exact same way every time. Handing over pipe between two machines is where MMC has one of the biggest impacts on time savings. Several newer rig designs have moved setbacks off drill floor, effectively lowering upwards of 1,000 metric tons 20 m down. This increases both stability and variable deck load (VDL), but the consequence is the need for additional machines. Depending on how many additional machines are required and on layout, MMC will help to maintain a good tripping speed. Design of the MMC is based on a modular principle, allowing it to be applied to a variety of drill floor designs. The speed, or time-saving factor, is determined by the number of machines, how fast each machine can do its part of the job and how fast interaction between them can be carried out. This article will look at the development of the system from concept to a fully working automated drill floor. It will look at the control system principle and both hardware and software design. When performance is discussed, it will use a recently delivered sixth-generation semisubmersible, where the setback area has been moved off the drill floor, as an example. The paper will also look at how implementation and testing have been carried out in order to finetune the system for maximum performance.

DESIGN:
The main purpose of the MMC is to increase tripping speeds without compromising any other safety devices. Increased tripping speeds are achieved in two ways: By maintaining a more constant speed throughout a trip-in or trip-out operation; By optimizing machine interactions, . The main design philosophy is based on a modular design using existing machine controls to achieve full automation. This will allow the system to be implemented on any machine. The first MMC system was implemented on a semisubmersible but can just as easily be implemented on various machine

HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE


A primary design feature of the MMC is that it normally requires no additional hardware in the field. A PLC connected to same network as the other machine controllers is all that is required. If additional feedback, i.e. new hardware, is required, this is added to the machine controller in question. For software, the design is based on a modular principle. Each machine in the sequence is represented by a module (blocks of machine code), which in turn is divided into sequence controls for trip in and trip out, command mapping toward the actual machine controller and common controls for all the machines in the MMC setup. In addition, there is an overall control to monitor the sequence. This is used to select the appropriate camera

for the CCTV system. It will also maintain the other features of the system, such as initialization, setup, operator messages and machine registration.

CONCLUSION:
Thus the control of speed and switching in a multi machines by an fully automated source gives a great ease of control over various machines once at a time in a same place The current field tests of the monitoring equipment will yield information as to actual operating environment characteristics of the system.
