Mantenimiento y diagnóstico remoto de un equipo mecatrónico usando un módulo GSM. Caso Práctico: Empresa CECATTEC.

Abstract

The objective of this thesis was to develop an application that allows remote diagnosis and maintenance of existing mechatronic equipment in the laboratory of the Center for Training and Technology Transfer (CECATTEC) from the city of Ambato. General scientific method was applied using as hardware distribution station Mechatronics and Automation System Production Festo MPS ®, which allows separate, semi-parts store and provide the production process. Twido PLC 20DTK was chosen for the control of the station and the modem Schnneider Electric SR2MOD03 of communication that enables GSM. Based on GSM technology, AT commands and ASCII codes, we designed a program using Twido Soft tool that allows a mobile phone, making checking and remote diagnosis in assembly processes and transport of parts distribution station through messages text and receive notifications of failures in the production process. In making this remote maintenance is improved interaction with the production system, you have access to computers from anywhere, anytime, with an efficiency of 89% compared to manual monitoring, managing to detect anomalies more efficiently and securely. We recommend selecting a mobile operator that offers better coverage in order to avoid possible inconsistencies or bug reports late.
