Abstract

Industrial machines are highly specialized equipment used in manufacturing and production processes. However, malfunctions or deterioration in their electrical, pneumatic, or hydraulic systems can lead to overheating, posing risks to the working environment and causing production downtime and financial losses. The objectives of this study are to develop an industrial machine overheat detection system using a microcontroller, monitor and control machine temperature, and measure the response rate of the system for overheat detection. The project implemented various components, including programmable logic controller (PLC) Siemens S7-1200, Thermocouple K-type, Max 6675 module, Arduino Uno, buzzer, relay, light crystal display (LCD) with I2C module, cooling fan, Arduino Ethernet shield, and project structure, to ensure the successful operation of the industrial machine overheat detection system. The results of the project focused on analysing the response rate of the temperature sensor when an overheat event occurs. By measuring this response rate, insights can be gained into the effectiveness of the system in promptly detecting and responding to overheat conditions. This research study aims to contribute to the understanding of overheating consequences, implement preventive measures, and address the issues associated with industrial machine overheating.
