The document summarizes a project to upgrade an existing cut to length line from an electromechanical control system to a PLC and SCADA system. A SCADA interface was developed to empower operators to easily reset tripped overloads from a visual interface. Ladder logic was programmed from the original drawings and the control panel was constructed and tested. The SCADA provided control screens to enter recipes, a numeric interface to enter quantities and sizes, and diagnostic pages that mimicked the actual control panels to reduce downtime.

Trident steel cut to lenght
1. Trident Cut to length Project
Integrated by Paul Bester
A project for DCB Automation
2. Cut to length line upgrade.
• The scope of this project was to upgrade an existing
Electromechanical control system on a cut to Length line, to a PLC and
SCADA system.
• The SCADA should be so user friendly, that it would empower the
operator to reset tripped overloads in the Control Panel with a visual
animated SCADA interface.
6. Plc Interface.
• The plc interface were programmed and tested in house at the Factory.
• Ladder logic diagrams were created from the original electrical drawing of the electromechanical drawings.
• The control panel were constructed and tested with the SCADA interface in the workshop.
• The SCADA and Ladder programming were all done by Me.
• Scope of the SCADA requirements:
• Control screens were created where the recipe with the required quantity’s, Sizes and batch numbers could
be entered on a touchscreen.
• A number pad numeric interface were created that allowed the user to enter the required recipe.
• Diagnostic pages with virtual panels were created that mimicked the actual as build panels.
• Tripped overloads or VSD’s would flash red on the diagnostic page with a cross reference to the specific
panel.
• This reduced down time significantly in the new refurbished line.
