• Abstract:

  The objective of this work is to automate a manual screen printing machine, with the consequent increase in productivity, mathematical equations developed from the analysis of empirical processes with which the screen printing process was originally developed were applied, based on these calculations it was determined to integrate detection sensors, PLC's, primary and final control elements, valves and other automation elements, machine diagrams were also developed such as: control loop, electrical, pneumatic, phase space and PLC programming lines. A reduction in production times from 4 days to only one day was achieved, which has an impact on the increase of profits.
