Maulik Timbadiya, Prof. Dimple Khant

Abstract :

<p>&nbsp;AC Drive is a perfect solution for soft start, speed regulation, energy saving and intelligent control of Induction Motor.&nbsp;</p> <div>For demanding applications like crane (hoist), conveyor, stacker, centrifuge, etc. It delivers unmatched performance.</div> <div>A researcher shows the Supervisory Control on drive is implemented using a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) to monitor and control the&nbsp;</div> <div>drive performance. This paper focus on Design of Human Machine Interface (HMI) for Real Time Monitoring and Controlling Operation of AC&nbsp;</div> <div>Drive especially for Graphical Analysis of drive parameter such as torque, speed, temperature, etc., The design is basically divided in two sections&nbsp;</div> <div>out of which one is HMI controller section and second is AC Drive controller section which communicates using Modbus Protocol. HMI section&nbsp;</div> <div>includes Dot Matrix LCD and dsPIC33EP512MC506 series controller. AC Drive controller section includes TMS320F28069 DSP controller to control&nbsp;</div> <div>rectifier unit, DC bus and Inverter Unit. And it has certain controlling Algorithm and Fault Detection Algorithm. This AC Drive also includes Built&ndash;in&nbsp;</div> <div>PLC control that can be programmed by HMI.A rigorous Design and Development will be carried out using MPLAB X and dsPIC33 Development&nbsp;</div> <div>Board for PIC Controller, Code Composer studio and DSP starter kit for DSP Controller.</div>
