Abstract

In this modern world, automation plays an important role in development. Industries are nowadays incomplete without automation. This paper explains about the sorting of materials of different sizes. Based on the requirements, any industry develops materials of different sizes and it will not be economically feasible if the separation is done manually. Labour cost, human effort and chances of human error will increase in this process of sorting. To overcome these disadvantages, automation plays a very important role which makes it economically feasible and time-saving. Chances of human error will also minimize. This paper is basically about the sorting of medium-sized objects to one level and large-sized objects to another level through vertical upward movement of lift by using Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) and Supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA).
