Abstract

Bottle filling, closing, and labellingmachine control and monitoring tool using Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) and Human-Machine Interface (HMI). This tool is designed to optimize the production process in the bottled beverage industry,with dimensions of 200 cm × 70 cm × 100 cm. The conveyor transports bottles through the filling, capping, and labeling units. In each unit, sensors are installed to detect the presence of bottles. Bottle liquid volume is determined through time settings inputted through the HMI,and the filling is performed by a water pump. After filling, bottles are capped and tightened mechanically using an air impact system. Labeling is handled by two DC motors which unroll the label and rotate the bottle, ensuringthe label adheres evenlyto all sides of the bottle. The number of bottles produced is calculated using a capacitive proximity sensor and displayed on the HMI. Testing results show that the system effectivelycontrols and monitors the bottle filling, capping, and labeling process viaPLC and HMI. Based on the test results on the bottle filling unit, the system can fill water into the bottle with a maximum percentage error of 0.5% on a 1000 ml volume bottle. In the capping unit, the success rate achieved is 70%, while the success rate in the bottle labeling unit is 80%.

Keywords
