Technical details and manufacturing context for Control System (PLC/HMI)

Definition
This control system is a centralized unit that combines a programmable logic controller (PLC) and a human-machine interface (HMI) to manage automated beverage container deoxygenation processes. It coordinates gas flow control, pressure regulation, timing sequences, and safety interlocks within the deoxygenation system. The PLC executes programmed logic based on sensor inputs, while the HMI provides operators with real-time visualization, parameter adjustment, and system status monitoring through graphical interfaces and touchscreen controls. The system is designed for integration into beverage manufacturing lines, offering scalable I/O configurations (32–256 points) and communication protocols such as Ethernet/IP, Profinet, and Modbus TCP for SCADA integration. It operates within a temperature range of -10 to 55 °C and requires a stable 24 V DC (±10%) power supply. The housing is made of polycarbonate, and the unit weighs between 5 and 15 kg, with dimensions ranging from 300×200×100 mm to 600×400×200 mm. The HMI screen size varies from 7 to 15 inches, and the PLC processor speed ranges from 1.2 to 2.0 MHz with memory capacity of 4 to 16 MB. The system is rated IP54 to IP65 for washdown environments, and power consumption is between 50 and 200 W depending on I/O modules. All values are reference ranges and must be verified with the legal manufacturer or supplier for specific models and applications. The system is a component of the deoxygenation equipment and is not a standalone product.
Working Principle
The PLC receives signals from sensors monitoring gas flow, pressure, and temperature. It executes a stored program to control actuators such as valves and pumps, ensuring precise deoxygenation. The HMI displays process data and allows operators to set parameters, start or stop cycles, and acknowledge alarms. Safety interlocks are implemented in the logic to prevent unsafe conditions. The system continuously scans inputs, updates outputs, and refreshes the HMI display in real time.
