1. Abstract This thesis focus on the operator machine control using Siemens PLC. The objective is to develop a fully automatic control system for paper roller using two stepper motors, a Siemen’s S7-1200 processor and an HMI screen. A motor can be controlled in different ways. Controlling
motors using PLC is the most common way in industry.
This thesis will show a basic example of motor control using the PLC to show how newer technology can be used.

2. Introduction Overthe course of the past years, an automatic process control has emerged from intuitive especially in industry. With a rapid increasing need of industrial process control, an efficient and effective method is needed.
Technological revolutions hit the industrial world in 1960s, when the
development of the first programmable logic controller (PLC) is explored. A basic problem in the design of a PLC based process control system is presented.
Therefore, designing a PLC based level control system attracts great
interests in learning and understanding PLC based industrial control.

8. Future Plans This thesis is not the most advanced and most efficient. There are many things that can be done in the future. They are: Making system smoother for auto manual transfer and while ramping up initially. Designing and Implementing OPC-UA client server architecture to control the process remotely. Controlling motion from remote location using admin-client configuration. Designing prototype for other materials based on torque required for that specific material. Developing the paper cutting machine.

9. Conclusion The presented work can be an example of showing how the current resources can be optimized and modified gradually to advance the level so that the impact of drastic change can be reduced.
This kind of upgrading not only bridges the
technological gap but also helps mitigating socio- economic problems.
