Scope of Work
- Migrated the Siemens TI500 PLC to a CompactLogix L3ER.
- Migrated the UniOP HMI to a 15" PanelView Plus 6.
- Replicated the multi-stage vacuum-metallizing sequence: rough vacuum → crossover → fine vacuum → preheat → flashing → plasil coat → vent.
- Commissioned within 5 days without reducing throughput.
Architecture
The vacuum-chamber sequence — rough/fine vacuum, glow discharge, filament preheat, aluminum flashing/evaporation, plasil top-coat, and chamber vent — is monitored from a single PanelView screen showing live vacuum gauges and pump/valve states.
Technology
- Allen-Bradley CompactLogix L3ER
- PanelView Plus 6 (15")
- EtherNet/IP
