Opis

In order to carry out the activities for the production of combined fodder in strict compliance with European Union standards all factories in the field have resorted to a massive refurbishing, acquiring latest generation of machinery and equipment, thus ensuring a high degree of automation and computerization of operations performed during the technological process. Considering the importance of the raw material transport activities, but also of the finished products obtained, this article proposes an experimental study regarding the possibilities to achieve some dedicated devices for monitoring and automatized control of conveyor belts from a compound feed factory (CFF). The experimental model proposed for implementation involves the use of magnetic sensors to monitor the rotation speed of the drums that actuate the conveyor belts and magnetic proximity sensors to detect any unwanted displacements of the drums, which through the measured parameters allow prompt transmission to the control panel of some signals to stop the operation of the electric motors in case of detection of a change in the optimal operating rhythm established for the respective work installation.
