Control system for a briquetting press

The bachelor thesis deals with a creating of control system for a briquetting press for biomass. The operation process is mediated by the programmable logic controller Siemens S7-300. The operation process provides pressing and monitoring of error conditions. The control process is solved by both the control panel and the visualization on the PC where the servis can efectively watch and control the course of pressing. The next part of this bachelor thesis deals with a proposal of the actuators and sensors needed for the process of pressing itself. The last part of this thesis is the price appreciation of all elements of the automation
