SUMMARY

This discussion focuses on automating two conveyors using PCschematics, where the first conveyor features manual controls (forward, backward, stop) and the second conveyor operates automatically after a delay. The second conveyor is designed to run for 10 minutes and then stop for 30 minutes, with the option for manual operation. Additionally, an emergency stop mechanism is required to shut down both conveyors simultaneously, along with indicator lights for operational status and errors. The user successfully resolved their automation challenge with community assistance.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of PCschematics software
  • Basic knowledge of conveyor control systems
  • Familiarity with manual and automatic control mechanisms
  • Knowledge of emergency stop protocols in machinery
NEXT STEPS
  • Research PCschematics for designing control circuits
  • Learn about PLC programming for conveyor automation
  • Explore timer circuits for delay operations in automation
  • Investigate safety standards for emergency stop systems in industrial settings
USEFUL FOR

Engineers, automation specialists, and anyone involved in industrial control systems who seeks to implement automated and manual controls for conveyor systems.

Homework Statement



I'm trying to make something like this in PCschematics...I'll try to explaine...sorry my english is not very good...I hope that someone will understand me...Once again sorry for my bad englih

I have 2 conveyors. First conveyor needs to have a button for going forwerd, backwords, and stop. the second conveyor needs to go start byitself after 30 min after the first conveyor started. Then it must go run for 10 min and than stop for 30 min and start and so on. It must also be amualy operated like the first one. So I would have to have somthing like a switch for manual and auto working of conveyor. There also must be a emergency stop that shut down bouth conveyors at the same time. Bouth conveyors need a light when in use also light when something is wrong and red light for emergency stop...I have been trying to resolve this for couple of days now and I can see I need help...So I really hope that someone understand my problem here...

someone please help

Thanks in advance
