Tiivistelmä
The goal of this paper was to develop a conveyor belt system for early stages of Industry 4.0. The objective of the current work is to create a network at which feedback from the system could be sensed and prepare an asset in a cloud service to store and to analyse the feedback data.
The development process was based on the analysis of automation pyramid for Industry 4.0, IoT architecture, determination of common functional possibilities and technical specifications for conveyor belt systems.
The result is presented as an implemented instruction for each of the devices that create the conveyor belt system, a PLC program for operating and detailed selection process of the monitoring equipment as well as communication protocols. The documentation provides knowledge for future studies and developments of the conveyor belt systems.
