| dc.description.abstract | The world is increasing moving towards Automation, the process of performing various tasks
without or with minimum human intervention. It increases the overall efficiency and output of a
process. It involves establishing control loops using micro-controllers like Arduino, which
control the working of the entire plant. Filling is an operation in which a predetermined amount
of liquid needs to be precisely filled in the bottle. It is used by soft drinks industry, packaged
water industry and various pharmaceuticals. The operation was earlier carried out by humans
and involved placing one bottle at a time on the conveyor belt and filling it. The process then
was slow, involved spilling of liquid and unequal quantities of liquid in bottles. Due to their
high costs, filling is still carried out manually in small manufacturing units. This results in
shortcomings in the operation and at drives up labor costs. This problem compels us to design a
system with reduced costs. This can be achieved by using Arduino as a micro-controller. The
proposed project will reduce cost for small scale industries and help them in setting up
automated plants. In this project, we aim to study the industrial process as carried out by a
micro-controller, then design a bottle filling, counting and liquid tank level monitoring system | en_US |
