Design and Development of Automatic System for Polymer (HDPE) Bag Counting

Abstract

This project revolves around crafting a smart system for accurately counting High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) bags, addressing the growing demand in various industries. The main objective of the project is to implement automation in the (HDPE) baggage counting system at a manufacturing Industry Bhoomi Polymers. Currently, the bag-counting process is quite manual and requires a lot of work and time. So the goal is to automate the system by integrating sensors, and controllers to increase process efficiency and accuracy of the counting process. By automating this task, industries can save time and reduce labour costs. At the heart of this automatic configuration, the PIC18F4520 microcontroller is used as the central controller. The traditional counting mechanism has been replaced by the sensor mechanism that performs the counting process. This project consists of two different set-ups which are used at Bhoomi Polymers to count the manufactured bags.
