Abstract
Automation or automatic control, is the use of various control systems for operating equipment with minimal or reduced human intervention, with some processes have been completely automated. By automating routine tasks and systems within the foundry, various benefits can be achieved. Automation helps in improving the production and casting output. Modern process control systems are used in industrial automation for flexibility, modularity and reliability. From last decade the industrial automation is important in all production industries for the sustainable growth. Particularly foundry industry includes the different processes. It demands for safe and careful handling of molten metal and prepared moulds. For small to medium scale industries it is advantageous to introduce automation within present plant layout or with smaller change, by taking assistance of PLC (Programmable Logic controller). In this paper a review is done on the Industrial Automation encountered with the use of PLC. Use of automation systems in foundries has proved to be highly economical than other means. The main benefit of using automation systems in foundries lies in their flexibility that is their ability to undertake a variety of other tasks and functions.
Keywords- DCS (Distributed Control System), PLC (Programmable Logic Controller), RTU (Remote Terminal Unit), SCADA (Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition).
