Abstract
This paper unfolds the successful implementation of a microcontroller based embedded system for the complete automation of a plant which was intended for cutting, counting & sorting of steel sheets. This embedded system provides greater flexibility, robustness, cost effectiveness & ease in portability. This paper states the working of plant, technique of noise free data acquisition from plant sensors, design considerations & working of embedded system. The paper also discusses how the speedy microcontroller can overcome parallel occurrences of events in the plant.
