Automated Production System

The Automated Production System has been developed as a tool for the study of production line automatic control and monitoring. The processes and the material flow in Automated Production System is an image of a real production and distribution enterprise. There are buffers and magazines for the raw materials, and a storage for the single products.

The Automated Production System can be used by students and research groups for the development of production line automation systems and for hands-on study of Automation Control Systems and computer programming disciplines.Due to the flexible construction, the stand essentially reduces the time and resources required for the development of production line automation systems. The experimental setup enables the user to control all stations.

The Automated Production System is based on the NI cRIO hardware platform of National Instruments. Course software has been developed in the NI LabVIEW Graphical Programming Environment.
