Kablosuz Sensör Ağı ile Transfer Potası Takibi

Öz

Süreç optimizasyonu, iyileştirmenin en önemli adımlarından biridir. Bir süreci iyileştirmek, katma değersiz zamanı azaltmak ve süreci daha verimli hale getirmek için verilerin toplanması ve değerlendirilmesi gerekir. Çalışma kapsamında, alçak basınçlı döküm yöntemi ile binek otomobil jantları üreten bir firmanın dökümhanesi, RFID, ZigBee, termokupl ve kablosuz forklift çatal kantarı içeren bir sensor ağı ile teorik olarak modifiye edilmiştir. Sensör ağı kurulurken karşılaşılabilecek sorunlar öngrülerek çözüm önerileri sunulmuştur.

Transfer Ladle Tracking System Using Wireless Sensor Network

Abstract

Process optimization is one of the most important steps in improvement. Data need to be collected and evaluated to improve a process, reduce non-value-added time and make the process more efficient. Within the scope of the study, the foundry of a company that produces passenger car wheels using low pressure casting method is theoretically modified with a sensor network containing RFID and ZigBee, thermocouple and wireless forklift scale. Problems that may be encountered while establishing the sensor network are anticipated and solution suggestions are presented.
