About IDP
When we went to visit the industry we were saw many different types of machines and bin
like PLC panel, cold aggregate bin, liquid asphalt storage, RAP bin, Collector, drum, flow pump,
surge bin, heater, burner etc.
We had a brief meeting with their technical persons, who had explain us about that machines.
So that time we have some query. Then after discussing to each other, our team has shared that query
with those technical persons.
The query was about the manual generation of report. In manual generated report, read the
industrial instrument temperature and weight of aggregate. To make good quality product, this thing
should done very accurately means at perfect value of temperature and weight of aggregate.
When manual read, this thing needs improvement. So to enhance this machine automation we
discuss an idea to design SCADA system. Those engineers become ready to support us for this
project.
Finally, we decide to work on this project. In this project we have to generate the report,
graph, graphical tag by using SCADA.
So, currently we are working on this project and we are trying to give a fully automatic
system, which is named as “ASPHALT BATCH MIXING PLANT AUTOMATION USING PLC &
SCADA.”

Abstract
The purpose of this project is to present a programmable logic controller (PLC) and SCADA
based control system that is applied to the asphalt batch mixing process.
This system manufacture the coated road stone demands the combination of a number
of aggregates, sand and a filler, in the correct proportions, heated, and finally coated with a binder.
There are three main classes of plant: batch heater, semi-continuous ("asphalt plant"), and
continuous ("drum mix").
Our Process Uses Programmable control Logic to operate all elements And SCADA to get
the graphical representation of all elements with various pages.

Chapter 1: Introduction
An asphalt batch mixing plant used for the manufacture of macadam, asphalt and other forms
of coated road stone, sometimes collectively known as blacktop.
The manufacture of coated road stone demands the combination of a number
of aggregates, sand and a stone dust, in the correct proportions, heated, and finally coated with a
binder, usually bitumen based in some cases, tar. The temperature of the finished product must be
sufficient to be maintain after transport at the final destination. A temperature in the range of 100 -
300 degrees Celsius is normal.
Increasingly, recycled asphalt pavement (RAP) is worked as mixing. The binder used is
highly flammable, the heaters and burners also. RAP is introduced after the heating process and must
be used in the overall mix temperature calculations.
There are three classes of plant: batch heater, semi-continuous, and continuous. The batch
heater has the lowest quality of production, the continuous plant the highest at up to around 500 Tons
per hour.
Supply of road stone for large contracts is generally by tender with considerable pressure on
price. A faulty batch of road stone must be planed up and separated, often with additional lane
rental charges, at a cost which may be orders of magnitude higher than the original price, so
sophisticated control systems are a necessity.
1.1 Contents:
 Sand
 Binder
 Filler
 Continues type plant
 Hot storage
 Control
1.1.1 Sand:
One key ingredient of stones is sand. Sand is a high water content. Boiling this is a large part
of the energy. In turn a significant part of the overall cost of operation. The water content of sand
also varies considerably, Specially when outdoors, being typically of the order of some tens of
percent of the overall mass of wet sand.

1.1.2 Binder:
Binder known as penetration. The pen value is an expression of the depth to which a standard
needle will penetrate the surface of the binder at a specified temperature. Asphalt wearing
courses are typically 37-55 pen, base courses will be higher, about 250 or 350 pen. The coating plant
may combine binder of different grades to achieve a grade between those held on site.
1.1.3 Filler:
Filler improves the capability of aggregates and it can be recovered at the end by the use of
some bags.
1.1.4 Continues type plant:
In continues type plan the aggregates material is fed by vehicles in continues manner with
precise storage. When the final material is dropped at the end it will directly goes to the hot storage
rather than to loading on truck.
1.1.5 Hot storage:
It is storage with the electrically heated and isolated with the process. The final material can
be store in this place as per our requirement.
1.1.6 Control:
Precise control is a needed. Asphalt Batch mixing and load out plant uses a combination of
computer control and programmable logic controllers to achieve this. We are using the graphical
representation to understand it with the more accurately.
1.2 Basic working:
SCADA stands for Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition. In which we will use the vijeo
citect software.
By using this software, we will give command to the PLC, display all the measurement and
process of the asphalt mixing also we have to generate the report, graph, graphical tag.
Now, the next block is PLC. It is stands for Programmable Logic Control. We have to use the
PLC kit, that is S71214C DC/DC/DC. The 1st DC voltage for S71214C PLC operating voltage, 2nd
DC voltage for S71214c PLC input voltage, 3rd DC voltage for S71214C PLC output voltage.
The TIA (Total Integrated Automation) software, we will use for PLC Programming. By
using the PLC we will control continues Asphalt mixing plant.

Fig 1.1: Block diagram
Finally, we will obtain the coated Road Stone at the last stage of the Asphalt mixing plant.
Figure shows the parallel flow drum mix process. This process is a continuous mixing type
process.
Using cold Aggregate bins we have to crush & screen the aggregate material to the
appropriate size for further processing.
Here, asphalt cement storage stores the asphalt cement it is heated by the heater at appropriate
temperature.
Now the paving material & aggregate material are discharged at the end of cold aggregate bin
and are conveyed to drum also discharge the asphalt cement at the end of cement storage is flow
throughout the pipe to drum.

Fig 1.2: Drum mix plant
This all material flow parallel into the drum.
The drum is continuous rotated. at the one end of drum burner is used. it remove the moisture
& gives dry material coated road stone.
This mixture coated road stone is discharged at the other end of the drum and is conveyed to
either surge bin or HMA storage silos. The gases also exit at the end of the drum.
1.3 Literature Survey:

1.3.1 Drum Mixer Plant typical layout:
Fig 1.3: Drum Mixer Plant typical layout
The first step in the manufacture of a HMA mix is to obtain aggregates and properly store
them to insure that they are not contaminated with dirt or with other materials. The aggregate storage
and feeding systems move the cold (unheated) aggregate from the aggregate processing areas to the
plant.
Fig 1.4: Aggregate Stockpile
The stockpiles must be managed to prevent contamination. It is easy when the piles are of
different colors - but, many times that is not the case.

Fig 1.5: Cold Feed
After the aggregate is processed it is feed into cold feed bins where the exact proportions of
the material are controlled.
Fig 1.6: conveyed to drum
The paving material & aggregate material are discharged at the end of cold aggregate bin and
are conveyed to drum.

Fig 1.7: Burner
The batch plant is a parallel flow plant. The aggregate enters at the burner end of the dryer.
Fig 1.8: Drum Dryer Mixer
This is a schematic of the drum mix plant.

Fig 1.9: Truck Being Loaded From a Surge Silo
To prevent plant shutdowns due to temporary interruptions of paving operations or shortages
of trucks to haul material from the plant to paving site, most HMA plants are equipped with storage
silos (surge bins) for temporary storage of HMA.
Fig 1.10: Controls
Drum mix plants are PLC controlled. The controls are linked to a weight belt. As the material
moves across this weigh bridge the weight of the material on the belt is determined and knowing the

speed of the belt - the amount of material per unit of time can be determined. This is then used to
control through the PLC the amount of asphalt cement to be feed into the mix.
Fig 1.11: Small Drum Mixer Plant
The advantage of the drum-mix plant is that a high production plant can be moved and set up
quickly. This is a “six-pack”. It can be moved in six units.
1.4 RTD (Resistance Temperature Detector):
RTD, Resistance Temperature Detector, is a temperature sensor which measures temperature
using the principle that the resistance of a metal changes with temperature.
As the temperature of a metal increases, the metal's resistance increases. This property,
positive temperature coefficient, makes RTD.
The heart of the RTD is the resistance element. Metals that are used as the resistance
elements in RTD include platinum, nickel, copper etc., used in purest form or iron-nickel alloy.
Platinum has the most stable resistance-temperature relationship over the largest temperature
range.
RTD elements are commonly specified according to their resistance in ohms at zero degrees
Celsius. The most common RTD (Platinum) specification is 100 Ω, which means that at 0° C the
RTD element should demonstrate 100 Ω of resistance i.e. PT100.

Fig 1.12: RTD
1.5 Load cell:
Load cells are sensors that convert a mechanical variable (i.e. weight) into an electrical
signal, usually a voltage.
They work with different measuring principles. Siemens load cells in the SIWAREX WL200
and SIWAREX R series use so called strain gauges. These are specially formed electrical conductors
which are insulated by means of a suitable material. The strain gauges are attached to the basic
element, a specially formed spring body, by friction locking.
Under the influence of a weight force F, the spring body is deformed (see schematic
presentation) and as a result the strain gauge deforms elastically. Due to the change in the external
shape of the strain gauge, the ohmic resistance of its conductor also changes. The top left and bottom
right strain gauges are compressed, their resistance films are shortened and the ohmic resistance is
reduced accordingly. The top right and bottom left strain gauges are stretched, their resistance films
are extended and the ohmic resistance is increased.
For each load cell, at least 4 strain gauges are connected together to form a complete
Wheatstone bridge. The stretched or compressed strain gauges are connected so that the positive or
negative resistance changes are added together to form a total imbalance in the bridge.

Fig 1.13: Load cell
1.6 S7-1214 PLC (Programmable Logic Control):
It takes input from sensor, performs logic and gives output to actuator. There are many PLC
manufacturing companies like:
• Siemens
• Schnider
• ABB
• Delta
• Yaskawa
• Omron
• Fuji
• Hitachi
• Allen bradley
• Messung
In which we are using the Siemens S7-1214C PLC manufacturing company.
The S7-1214 controller provides the controlling a wide variety of devices in support of your
automation. The compact design, superior configuration, and very Powerful instruction set make the
S7-1214 a perfect solution for controlling a wide variety of applications.

The CPU has a microprocessor, an integrated power supply, input and output circuits, built-in
PROFINET, high-speed I/O, and on-board analog inputs in a compact housing to create a powerful
controller. After you download your program, the CPU contains required logic to control the devices
in your application. The CPU monitors the inputs and changes the outputs according to the logic of
your user program, which can include Boolean logic, counting, timing, complex math operations,
and communications with other intelligent devices.
The CPU provides a PROFINET port for communication over a PROFINET network.
Additional modules are available for communicating over PROFIBUS, GPRS, RS485 or RS232
networks.
1.6.1 Features of PLCs:
Fig 1.14: Module of Siemens PLC
Photograph showing several input and output modules of a single Siemens PLC.
The main difference from computers and PLC is PLC has the facility for extensive
input/output (I/O) arrangements. We can connect the PLC to sensors and actuators. PLCs read limit
switches, analog process variables (such as temperature and weight), and the positions of complex
positioning systems. On the actuator side, PLCs operate contactors, relays or solenoids. The
input/output arrangements may be built into a simple PLC, or the PLC may have external I/O
modules that plugs into the PLC.
The functionality of the PLC has evolved over the years to include sequential relay control,
motion control, process control, distributed control systems and networking. The data handling,
processing power and communication capabilities of some modern PLCs are approximately
equivalent to desktop computers.

1.6.2 Wiring in a PLC:
Fig 1.15: PLC wiring
1. 24 VDC Sensor Power Out For additional noise immunity, connect "M" to chassis ground
even if not using sensor supply.
2. For sinking inputs, connect "-" to "M" (shown). For sourcing inputs, connect "+" to "M".
1.6.2.1 Physical Connections:
Most PLC connections involve connecting to something like the terminal block shown on
the right. Slide the wires into the slots on the bottom, and using the screws found on top, you secure
the wires.
1.6.2.2 Internal Connections:
The inputs and outputs of PLCs are connected internally in 1 of 3 ways: Relays, Source or
Sink.
1.6.2.3 Commons:
In order to increase IO points on PLCs without increasing the number of connections, Commons are
used. The picture to shows an example of what the wiring of a PLC with 4 inputs would look like.
Commons are used in Relays, Sink and Source Circuits.

Fig 1.16: connection
1.6.2.4 Relays:
Relays are the simplest Connection type. They act like light switches that are turned on or off
by the PLC. They physically connect/disconnect 2 pins on the PLC.
1.7 SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition):
The definition of SCADA is ‘Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition’. The major function of
SCADA is for acquiring data from remote devices such as valves, pumps, transmitters etc. and
providing overall control remotely from a SCADA Host software platform. This provides process
control locally so that these devices turn on and off at the right time, supporting your control strategy
and a remote method of capturing data and events for monitoring these processes. SCADA Host
platforms also provide functions for graphical displays, alarming, trending and historical storage of
data.
1.7.1 Features of SCADA:
 The computer control primary equipments, record an store a very large amount of data from
process.
 The operator can incorporate real data simulations into the system.
 The operator is assist by computer that recommends actions to keep the system safety.
 Many types of data can be collected from the RTUs (Remote Terminal Unit), this creates
online the image of the system.

1.8.2 Title of Invention: A method and systemfor hot asphalt recycling:
The present invention relates to a system and method, providing recycling of removed asphalt
pavement from its existing place so as to be used in the new hot mix asphalt production.
The present invention more particularly relates to a hot asphalt recycling system, in which
removed reclaimed asphalt pavement to be subjected to recycling is first crushed and sieved, then
subjected to size based separation if necessary, then is heated, stored so as to maintain its temperature,
and optionally transported to the asphalt plant in an automatic manner.
As a known fact in the relevant background art, the top surface course on the base is realized
on the road's foundation by applying asphalt concrete mixed with bitumen according to various
methods (hot mix, warm mix, etc.) in the form layers with differing characteristics one layer on the
other. Each asphalt concrete layer has differing performances and is obtained by mixing aggregates
provided by breaking off natural stones with bitumen in certain proportion according to standard
design methods.
The asphalt layers and particularly the surface layer (i.e. the wear course) making up the
road's top surface course have certain lifespan. Any such layers with expired lifespan or which must
be renewed as it becomes nonfunctional due to deformation under various influences must be ripped
from the place it was already paved. Any such asphalt to be recycled and therefore subjected to this
operation is named as RAP, i.e. Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement, while the asphalt recycled as a result
of various methods to be detailed hereinafter is designated as Recycled Asphalt Concrete, i.e. RAC.

The purpose of this project is to present a programmable logic controller (PLC) based control
system that is applied to the manufacture of asphalt, macadam and other forms of coated road
stone, sometimes collectively known as blacktop.
This system manufacture the coated road stone demands the combination of a number of
aggregates, sand and a filler (such as stone dust), in the correct proportions, heated, and finally
coated with a binder.
There are three main classes of plant: batch heater, semi -continuous (or "asphalt plant"), and
continuous (or "drum mix").
Recycled Asphalt Pavement (RAP) is used as part of the mix. The binder used is flammable, and
the heaters are large liquid or gas fired burners. RAP is introduced after the heating process and
must be accounted for in the overall mix temperature calculations. The temperature of the finished
product must be sufficient to be workable after transport to the final destination.
Precise control is a necessity. Asphalt Batch mixing and load out plant typically use a combination
of SCADA/HMI and Programmable Logic Controllers to achieve this.

We have done Ladder programming on TIA software with two type of starting Semi automatic and manually for
mixing process. we are using Siemens S7-1214C PLC and Siemens TIA portal supports Our PLC for downloading
the program.
We process are need to run automatic so we have to done programming in that way....e.g. the last door has to
open for 5 sec and remain closed for 10 sec.
We got support from internal guide as well as external guides for some difficulties and some report generation
information.
Basics of PLC Programming, SCE Training Curriculum for Integrated Automation Solutions TIA.

We have downloaded our program for manually starting of process in our PLC Panel. And it is running properly and
To display this process in graphical manner we connected panel with our laptop Which already has our Vijeo citect
software in it. So by connecting panel with laptop with Ethernet cable we have seen the whole process graphically.
While connecting PLC panel with laptop it was displaying bad connection error. So we have to do many changes in
settings to connect properly.
After presenting the project to the collage we got many suggestions and ideas from internal guide and collage
professors.
