Modulo didáctico para la enseñanza de sistemas de regulación de velocidad controlado por PID utilizando PLC y variador de velocidad en la carrera de TSE en la Uleam extensión el Carmen.

Abstract

The recent creation of the Electromechanical Technology (TSE) program at the Universidad Laica Eloy Alfaro de Manabí (ULEAM), El Carmen extension, has highlighted the lack of adequate materials for the realization of practices, which are crucial to reinforce the theory taught in the classroom. With this problem in mind, it was proposed the elaboration of a didactic module for the teaching of speed regulation systems, controlled by PID and using PLC and variable speed drive. An exhaustive bibliographic review was carried out, consulting different sources such as magazines, degree works, books and available manuals. Applying the knowledge obtained from this review, the necessary components were acquired and a robust and easy to transport didactic module was built. The programming of the PID-controlled speed regulation system was done using Logo!Soft Comfort software. Despite the tests performed, it was concluded that, due to the lack of suitable hardware, it was not possible to fully implement the PID-controlled speed regulation system. This limitation was due to insufficient financial resources for the project.
