Due to the sensitive IP of the Germination process I am not allowed to show any videos or schematics/drawings. The project was engineered with a C-more EA9 series HMI and a Productivity 2000 PLC this project was built for Groviv (renamed Grov) an Environmentally Controlled Agriculture technology company

I designed the cloth dog table to port and tap a variety of different "filter plates" all of which was being done by hand at the time. it has 2 work stations a pivoting HMI and a remote pendant to start and stop operation from the far side of machine
This device was designed to meet an FDA requirement that temperatures of frozen goods be tracked and logged throughout the manufacturing process. the Freezer controls and data logger used multiple RTD temperature probes to gather accurate temperatures from different levels of the freezer. i programmed in PID loops for the temperature control and it had a network interface that logged the temperatures to file locations on the server. it had remote real time viewing capabilities through telnet with built in alarms.

Below is a data logger I built it was capable of logging 5 channels @ 250 milliseconds per data point. 2 thermocouples, 1 pressure transducer, 1 inductive proximity sensor for RPM, and a current transducer for Amp draw, all with time and date stamps. the unit was able to be deployed in extreme environments for days of logging. the enclosure was rated NEMA 4x and was capable of withstanding extreme conditions
