Introduction
 An automatic door is an automated movable barrier installed at the entrance of a room,
building or space to control and restrict access or provide privacy. Also an automatic door
indicates a door that opens on its own as a moving object approaches it.
 It is an electro-mechanical door that has undergone the process of automation. The reason
for making the sliding door automatic is to allow people to gain easy entrance in and out
without having anyone to keep opening and closing the sliding door.
 For people in wheelchairs and other disabled individuals, automatic doors are an immense
boon, since conventional doors can be very hard to work with. It may be impossible to
open a conventional door while seated in a wheelchair or navigating with crutches, for
example, and for people with disabilities in their hands and arms, conventional doors can
present a real obstacle.
Working Principle

 The sliding door operator, is made up of the following main components: a power source,
an electric motor, a belt-pulley system, sensors, a controller.
 Power from the supply is first routed to the power source, which then distribute the power
to the electric motor, sensors, and microcontroller.
 The rechargeable battery is charged by a charging circuit from the power source and serves
as an auxiliary power source in case of power failure.
 The electric motor is used to drive the system. The motor drive a pulley at one end of a
belt, and at the other end, is a fixed pulley.

Introduction

 The methods of speed control of DC motors are Normally simpler and less expensive than
that of ac Drives.
 Due to the commentators, dc motors are not Suitable for very high speed applications and
require More maintenance than ac motors.
 PLC output provide a variable dc output voltage , whereas choppers can provide a variable
dc voltage from a fixed dc voltage.
 Due to their ability to supply a continuously variable dc voltage, controlled rectifiers and
dc choppers made a revolution in modern industrial control equipment and variable speed
drives.
 Many industrial drives and processes take power from dc voltage sources. In most cases,
conversion of the dc source voltage to different levels is required.
Methodology
 Speed control of a motor means the intentional variation of speed according to the
requirement of the work-load connected with the motor.
 This can be done by mechanical means, such as by using stepped pulleys, a set of change
gears ,a friction clutch mechanism, etc.
 However control of speed by electrical means has greater advantages over mechanical
speed controls.
 The dc motors offer easy speed control and that’s why dc motors are preferred over other
types of motors in many applications.

Operation and Algorithm

 The hardware implementation of speed control consist the motor driver circuit PLC
software and DC motor which speed we are going to control.
Working
 PLC is an important part of industrial systems. We used PLC to control motor speed. At
first, then PLC according to the program generate the control signal to reach the desired
speed.
 The analog signal from the motor driver circuit is transmitted to the motor. According to
the received control signal, drive transfer required voltage to the motor.
 Every moment by tachometer measures motor speed at any moment and produces signals
for having optimum speed in the shortest time and low steady state error and low overshoot
in stable state.
 Speed control of a motor means the intentional variation of speed according to requirement
of the workload connected with the motor.
 However control of speed by electrical means has greater advantages over mechanical
speed controls.
 The dc motors offer easy speed control and that’s why dc motors are preferred over other
types of motors in many applications.
