Using the LABVIEW software package to automate production and research tasks

Abstract

Abstract Currently, improving the quality indicators of mass production and consumer goods is impossible without the use of modern software systems, means and methods of automation. The main systems capable of satisfying the tasks of modern enterprises and scientific organizations include Scada-systems, which provide the necessary control accuracy and versatility in conditions of low costs for additional staff training. Consider the prospects for improving the technical and economic indicators of metallurgical and chemical enterprises through the introduction of automation, on the example of the operation of concentration plants. Obviously, the main tool to increase the economic efficiency of production is to reduce various types of costs. Among the main cost items, fuel, feedstock and chemical reagents are distinguished, however, the undisputed leader is the cost of electricity, the work of the mills needed to grind the feedstock. On the other hand, the problem of timely and quick diagnosis of the internal components of the mills and the ability to choose the optimal mode of operation are also relevant tasks. These reasons significantly affect such process indicators as the quality of the crushed raw materials, the energy efficiency of the grinding process, reducing the cost of the production cycle, etc. To control the processes of grinding, loading of raw materials, monitoring the filling of the drum, the use of vibroacoustic primary transducers installed on the housing of the axle bearing of the drum mill is promising.
