Objective
This project develops a comprehensive robotic and sensor-based control system for coal handling plants. It integrates real-time monitoring, anomaly detection, and PLC automation to optimize conveyor system operations, improve safety, and reduce maintenance costs.
Technical Overview
Sensors
Distance sensors are used for conveyor belt data collection, enabling real-time monitoring of belt position, alignment, and operational parameters.
Control System
LVDTs (Linear Variable Differential Transformers) are finalized for sway input. PLC logic is optimized for real-time master idler control, ensuring precise alignment and operation.
Automation
Sway switches are analyzed for fault detection and master idler alignment, providing automated monitoring and corrective actions.
Innovation
A Tracked Robot is introduced for conveyor belt inspection and monitoring, enabling autonomous inspection capabilities.
Tracked Robot Features
