Project Title

Design and development of Control System for Car Wash Station using PLC

Project Area of Specialization

Electrical/Electronic Engineering

Project Summary

 In this project, we will work on auto washing framework to Implement it on car washing by using PLC ,  controlling and monitoring through LabVIEW Software.

? It will consist of different  stages : washing, cleaning  and drying

? This project will make a car washing station fully automated

Project Objectives

Develop such a system that is more efficient  as compared to Manual car wash system in

? Water usage

? Time taking

? Manpower requirements

? Environment-friendly 

? Surveys say ‘A  manual car wash uses at least 150 to 200 liters water per wash.

? And we live in a country which ranks third in the world facing water crises.

? In 2018 the Lahore High Court (LHC) imposed a ban on car washing stations.
Cont…..
? To save this water we have to implement smart techniques. 
? By  Automatic car washing stations, water usage could be reduced up to 50% than a manual car washing.

Project Implementation Method

We have divided our project into 4 parts

? Learning of PLC:

In this we will learn about PLC. We will learn its writing codes through Siemens Software.

? Study of  SCADA System: 

 In this, we will learn about  SCADA System for monitoring and controlling our project components.

? Hardware work:

Designing of Car Wash System  using power supply  relays, water pumps, sensors, cleaning brushes, and conveyor belt

? Implementing the codes and testing of it.  

After plc programming and hardware design, we will test all the components working or not and their efficiency.

List Of Components 
? Power Supply

? PLC

? Permanent Magnet DC Motor

? DC Stepper Motor

? Water Pump

? Proximity Sensors

? Conveyor Belt

? Relays

? Laptop

? Water sprinkle

Benefits of the Project

The main purpose of this project is to save time and water during the watching process.
we live in a country which ranks third in the acute water shortage.

• so this project could be installed near Supermarkets & malls, GAS stations, Airports, Hotels & Resorts.
•  It can be used in domestic service stations.
•  This technique could be used in an industry where the washing process is required like the food industry and  leather industry  for washing purpose

Technical Details of Final Deliverable

1. We will get an automated car washing station which will be pollution-free, easy to operate, less time and water will be required in the operation.
2. This technique not only will be used on the car washing stations, But It can also be implemented in food, leader and other industries where washing is mandatory.

How it will operate 

• It will consist of different stages: washing, cleaning, and drying.

1. washing

the car enters into the washing station, the water pump will on and remove the dust and also spray shampoo on it.

1. cleaning

In this Leather, brushes will on and clean the car dust.

1. drying

In this sections, fans will be on and dry the car
