Automation and electrical control of a mortising machine with 12 synchronous perforations in the manufacture of stairs

<span lang="EN-US">With the constant technological development, industries have been incorporating technologies into their manufacturing processes, which generate benefits in productive field. In process of wooden stairs, faults products, generates that an adequate homogeneity is not achieved, often because manual operation carried out without having established parameters handling mortiser. this sense, present article develops automatism and electrical control a 12 synchronous perforation mortiser, order to improve productivity stage manufacture stairs. As part electrical, pneumatic mechanical system using Autodesk Inventor software, while KOP programming Tía Portal V14 with connection S7 PLCSIM programmable logic controller (PLC) 1214C. Once automation has implemented, reduction processing time per strip 74.68% obtained. Likewise, automatic process, it possible produce 2,460 units slats, is, monthly production increases by 294.9%, other words, 58 slats manufactured hour.</span>
