In some industries proper maintenance of the controlling system or industrial devices is

crucial to deliver an uninterrupted output. So to reduce the maintenance costs and to

optimize critical monitoring system GSM Based Industrial Automation Technology is

used.

In this project a GSM server is implemented with PSOC mixed signal chip, sensors and

relays. The GSM Modem can provide the necessary data related to industry to a

maintenance officer located anywhere at any time. According to data received officer will

take some action by sending some commands to PSOC chip through mobile unit to GSM

modem. PSOC chip decodes the commands and controls the industrial devices through

relays.

1.2 SCOPE OF THE PROJECT

The scope includes connecting the different control systems to relays for controlling the

environment. The PSOC microcontroller can be used for implementation of more complex

systems for complex tasks like controlling different systems like nuclear plants and reactors

in the industry. It can also be used in the system where there is a need of instrumentation,

inverting and non inverting amplifiers.

1.3 INDUSTRIAL AUTOMATION

Automation or industrial automation or numerical control is the use of control systems such

as computers to control industrial machinery and processes, reducing the need for human

intervention. In the scope of industrialization, automation is a step beyond mechanization.

Whereas mechanization provided human operators with machinery to assist them with the

physical requirements of work, automation greatly reduces the need for human sensory and

mental requirements as well. Processes and systems can also be automated. Automation

plays an increasingly important role in the global economy and in daily experience. Engineers

strive to combine automated devices with mathematical and organizational tools to create

complex systems for a rapidly expanding range of applications and human activities.

Many roles for humans in industrial processes presently lie beyond the scope of automation.

Human-level pattern recognition, language recognition, and language production ability are

well beyond the capabilities of modern mechanical and computer systems. Tasks requiring

subjective assessment or synthesis of complex sensory data, such as scents and sounds, as

well as high-level tasks such as strategic planning, currently require human expertise. In

many cases, the use of humans is more cost-effective than mechanical approaches even

where automation of industrial tasks is possible.

Specialized hardened computers, referred to as programmable logic controllers (PLCs), are

frequently used to synchronize the flow of inputs from (physical) sensors and events with the

flow of outputs to actuators and events. This leads to precisely controlled actions that permit

a tight control of almost any industrial process.

Human-machine interfaces (HMI) or computer human interfaces (CHI), formerly known as

man-machine interfaces, are usually employed to communicate with PLCs and other

computers, such as entering and monitoring temperatures or pressures for further

automated control or emergency response. Service personnel who monitor and control these

interfaces are often referred to as stationary engineers.

Industrial automation is the process of controlling and guiding the industrial equipment, i.e.

process and systems with less of the human intervention. The operation and control of the

modern industrial equipment and process needs lot of sensors to monitor various

parameters of the systems.

1.3.1 Importance of Automation

Automation can improve productivity and quality. In order to receive these benefits, educating

the workers on the machinery is necessary. Companies must contemplate their objectives of

automating before incorporating any machinery.

As factory automation technology becomes more capable, more functional and

ubiquitous, its meaning and purpose take on many interpretations.

Factory automation delivers increased product and process information, and of course,

improves product quality.

Technology is used in so many ways and for so many different ends that it is almost

impossible to have a single definition that includes all the solutions factory automation

delivers.

MVI's RPM system, in effect, documents the way a company manages its people.

Its various data templates can be configured to address management and executive

information needs.

It presents real-time data that will help hem to do something with the information and

make an informed decision.

System monitoring showed that unit costs varied by as much as 50 percent over the

three daily shifts.

Providing proper training to the operators led to increased productivity and a more

consistent unit cost.

Factory automation's capabilities are multi-faceted and provide answers to the

questions asked of it.

They have been forced to change from basic suppliers of parts, components or

equipment to a take position where they help customers realize greater productivity,

quality and a competitive edge from OEM purchases.

Because there are fewer mechanical components, the OEM can deliver the press at a

lower initial cost to the printer or publisher.

While increased productivity is the clarion call for the OEM, end users must contend

with a growing list of factory automation opportunities, a challenge for implementing

successful factory automation.

Among the initiatives that Siemens has started is one called Totally Integrated Power,

or TIP, to better manage energy costs and save money

It can also lead to decreased factory power outages and improve uptime.

As with any powerful technology, consider your risk before you take action.

Make sure you have a solid set of goals and objectives that meet your company's

operating needs.

1.3.2 Context of the project

Monitoring of the Critical sensor monitoring is very important in several industries (Nuclear

plants, power plants, petroleum and gas). This job should be done with at most accuracy

and reliably. The sensor information should be available at various locations simultaneously

to take accurate decisions. This kind of requirement can be met by using the central servers

and connecting the sensor networks through the controllers to the central servers. Most of

the systems require features which are given by web server kind of architecture on wireless

Authentication (of the person commanding).

Port numbers for each connecting application.

But the deployment of the web server is costly and complex to maintain.

Maintaining the wireless network has issues.

GSM network is readily available wireless secured network.

Growing technological research towards 3G suggests this alternative.
