Automated Aluminum Production Cell
Abstract
The following bachelor thesis Automated Aluminum Production Cell is a project for RUFO AS, provided by Viddal Automation AS, in which the purpose is to develop the electrical- and control system for the production cell. On March 19, 2018 we had a meeting with Viddal Automation discussing the thesis and project progress. It became apparent that neither the physical machine nor the design would be finished in time, as a consequence construction of a prototype was added to the thesis in order to ensure testing of the fully developed control software. Through testing it became apparent that the control software fulfill the requirements completely. However the preliminary model, due to rapid prototyping, has a larger margin of error than specified by RUFO. In order to illustrate the entire workflow the video presentation was recorded and uploaded to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AirGtP0qUXM.
