Implementation of T-Junction Traffic Light Control System Using Simatic S7-20...IJERA Editor
Â
A conventional traffic light control system is designed by using devices such as timers, relays and
contactors etc. The critical timing operation is required to be carried out under the existence of heavy
traffic situations. This conventional practice leads to many problems that need additional maintenance
cost and subsequent delay for a long time. With the help of a PLC, the requirement of fast automation
and effective optimization of traffic light control system can be achieved. Use of PLC helps us to
develop this process not only for traffic signal on the roads, but also on the movement of trains and
the transfer of containers in ports in maritime works. In order to provide a solution to the above
problem, this paper introduces an execution and implementation of T-junction traffic control system
using SEIMENS S7-200 PLC. Programming in PLC is written in ladder logic with the help of STEP7

Buying new cosmetic products is difficult. It can even be scary for those who have sensitive skin and are prone to skin trouble. The information needed to alleviate this problem is on the back of each product, but it's thought to interpret those ingredient lists unless you have a background in chemistry.
Instead of buying and hoping for the best, we can use data science to help us predict which products may be good fits for us. It includes various function programs to do the above mentioned tasks.
Data file handling has been effectively used in the program.
The automated cosmetic shop management system should deal with the automation of general workflow and administration process of the shop. The main processes of the system focus on customer's request where the system is able to search the most appropriate products and deliver it to the customers. It should help the employees to quickly identify the list of cosmetic product that have reached the minimum quantity and also keep a track of expired date for each cosmetic product. It should help the employees to find the rack number in which the product is placed.It is also Faster and more efficient way.

Courier management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
Â
It is now-a-days very important for the people to send or receive articles like imported furniture, electronic items, gifts, business goods and the like. People depend vastly on different transport systems which mostly use the manual way of receiving and delivering the articles. There is no way to track the articles till they are received and there is no way to let the customer know what happened in transit, once he booked some articles. In such a situation, we need a system which completely computerizes the cargo activities including time to time tracking of the articles sent. This need is fulfilled by Courier Management System software which is online software for the cargo management people that enables them to receive the goods from a source and send them to a required destination and track their status from time to time.

What is Sequence and Logic Control?
Many control applications do not involve analog process variables, that is, the ones which can
assume a continuous range of values, but instead variables that are set valued, that is they only
assume values belonging to a finite set. The simplest examples of such variables are binary
variables, that can have either of two possible values, (such as 1 or 0, on or off, open or closed
etc.). These control systems operate by turning on and off switches, motors, valves, and other
devices in response to operating conditions and as a function of time. Such systems are referred to
as sequence/logic control systems. For example, in the operation of transfer lines and automated
assembly machines, sequence control is used to coordinate the various actions of the production
system (e.g., transfer of parts, changing of the tool, feeding of the metal cutting tool, etc.).
Typically the control problem is to cause/ prevent occurrence of
♦ particular values of outputs process variables
♦ particular values of outputs obeying timing restrictions
♦ given sequences of discrete outputs
♦ given orders between various discrete outputs
Note that some of these can also be operated using analog control methods. However, in specific
applications they may be viewed as discrete control or sensing devices for two reasons, namely,
A. The inputs to these devices only belong to two specific sets. For example in the control of a
reciprocating conveyor system, analog motor control is not applied. Simple on-off control
is adequate. Therefore for this application, the motor-starter actuation system may be
considered as discrete.
B. Often the control problem considered is supervisory in nature, where the problem is provide
different types of supervisory commands to automatic control systems, which in turn carry
out analog control tasks, such that over all system operating modes can be maintained and
coordinated to achieve system objectives.
Examples of some such devices is given below.
Industrial Example of Discrete Sensors and Actuators
There are many industrial sensors which provide discrete outputs which may be interpreted as
the presence/absence of an object in close proximity, passing of parts on a conveyor, For
example, tables x.y and a.b below show a set of typical sensors which provide a discrete
set of output corresponding to process variables.

Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC)
A modern controller device used extensively for sequence control today in transfer lines, robotics,
process control, and many other automated systems is the Programmable Logic Controller
(PLC). In essence, a PLC is a special purpose industrial microprocessor based real-time
computing system, which performs the following functions in the context of industrial operations
• Monitor Input/Sensors
• Execute logic, sequencing, timing, counting functions for Control/Diagnostics
5. 5
• Drives Actuators/Indicators
• Communicates with other computers
Some of the following are advantages of PLCs due to standardized hardware technology, modular
design of the PLCs, communication capabilities and improved development program development
environment:
ď€
ď‚•ď€ Easy to use to simple modular assembly and connection;
• Modular expansion capacity of the input, outputs and memory;
• Simple programming environments and the use of standardized task libraries and debugging
aids;
• Communication capability with other programmable controllers and computers
Evolution of the PLC
Before the advent of microprocessors, industrial logic and sequence control used to be performed
using elaborate control panels containing electromechanical or solid-state relays, contactors and
switches, indicator lamps, mechanical or electronic timers and counters etc., all hardwired by
complex and elaborate wiring. In fact, for many applications such control panels are used even
today. However, the development of microprocessors in the early 1980’s quickly led to the
development of the PLCs, which had significant advantages over conventional control panels.
Some of these are:
• Programming the PLC is easier than wiring physical components; the only wiring required is
that of connecting the I/O terminals.
• The PLC can be reprogrammed using user-friendly programming devices. Controls must be
physically rewired.
• PLCs take up much less space.
• Installation and maintenance of PLCs is easier, and with present day solid-state technology,
reliability is grater.
The PLC can be connected to a distributed plant automation system, supervised and
monitored.
• Beyond a certain size and complexity of the process, a PLC-based system compare favorably
with control panels.
• Ability of PLCs to accept digital data in serial, parallel and network modes imply a drastic
reduction in plant sensor and actuator wirings, since single cable runs to remote terminal
I/O units can be made. Wiring only need to be made locally from that point.
• Special diagnostic and maintenance modes for quick troubleshooting and servicing, without
disrupting plant operations.
However, since it evolved out of relay control panels the PLCs adopted legacy concepts, which
were applicable to such panels. To facilitate maintenance and modification of the physically wired
control logic, the control panel was systematically organized so that each control formed a rung
much like a rung on a ladder. The development of PLCs retained the ladder logic concept where
control circuits are defined like rungs on a ladder where each rung begins with one or more inputs
6. 6
and each rung usually ends with only one output. A typical PLC ladder structure is shown below
in Fig. 3.2
