The engineers of INFOCOM LTD are at the final stage of a large-scale project for the automation and power supply of the transshipment complex for the reception, storage and shipment of grain cargoes with a one-time storage of 300 thousand tons and an annual turnover of up to 5 million tons.
The tasks of our specialists include the implementation of a complex of works on equipment automation:
- development of software for automatic equipment control;
- manufacture and supply of control system cabinets (motor control cabinets, remote peripheral cabinets, controller cabinet);
- installation and commissioning of control system equipment.
The control system controls the routes for grain products via conveyors to 24 silos of the terminal, providing operations of receiving, unloading, storage of grain cargos. The project uses a routing technology improved by our engineers, which ensures the creation of routes for transporting goods from point A to point B along conveyor lines, synchronizing the on / off of equipment for each part of the route.
The facility is subject to strict requirements for the system’s fault tolerance; to fulfill these requirements Siemens controller and Simocode PROV modules are used. The environment TIA Portal, WinCC Professional was used for software development. The number of tags in the project is over 6,000.
