9. To use counter operation, search CTU at instruction and insert to program. CTU also needs to
declare. After programming is complete. Click icon compile to check an error.

10. The program is successful if no errors shown.

6.0 TASK: To Solve Conveyor System Control

Figure 1: Conveyor system in packaging process

Figure 1 shows the conveyor control system in packaging process in industry.

Develop a PLC programming using ladder diagram or sequence function chart
according to the following operation:
1. When start button is pushed, the box conveyor moves.
2. Upon detection by box present sensor (S2), the box conveyor stops, and apple
conveyor starts.
3. Part sensor will count 10 apples.
4. Apple conveyor stops and box conveyor start again
5. Counter will reset and these operation repeats until stop button is pressed.

8.0 DISCUSSION:

Along doing this lab we are using PLC programming software Control FPWIN Pro 6. Before
program, we need to connect the wire such as input and output first to identify which input or output to
be program. In this lab the ladder diagram programming we’re using CTU for counting ten apples
operation.

There were a couple small problems that we faced during this project. Several of them were
due to unfamiliarity to some of the new features used. It took us a little familiarize ourselves and
understand exactly what feature did what. The more we used each, the more comfortable we became
with the software.

9.0 CONCLUSION:

In conclusion for this report PLC programming conveyor system control, student will be able to
understand how the conveyor system control operate using the PLC software. They also can simulate
the sensor and operation. Other than that, student can understand the function of operation manager
and post-processing to generate FPWIN Pro 6 program.

At industrial side, student will be able to satisfy the employee with the skill about conducting
PLC. Student will be able to study the software with a good condition and my opinion there are
recommendation needs to improve because all machine or pc is well in maintenance although student
is very comfort to study.
