Diseño e implementación de aplicaciones de automatización de procesos industriales utilizando PLC’s S7-1200, S7-300 y HMI.

Abstract

The graduation project aims to develop practical guides for students of Electrical Engineering at the Universidad Católica de Santiago de Guayaquil (UCSG) to deepen their development of programming for S7-1200, S7-300 controllers and integral industrial applications through SCADA systems, using the SIMATIC TIA PORTAL software. These guides will allow students to deepen their knowledge and skills in the field of automation and will contribute to their professional development. The general objective of the project is to develop a laboratory guide and a plan of practical activities that allows students of Electrical Engineering to design and implement the programming of Siemens PLC controllers for industrial applications, while the specific objectives include the development of three industrial applications, evaluating the effectiveness of the guide and adjusting it according to the needs of the students. The project was developed considering the needs of the students, the demands of the industrial sector, and cutting-edge solutions. In conclusion, experimental guides of industrial applications correspond to an effective tool for training in automation and the development of skills.
