Conference "LabVIEW Embedded Systems for variables monitoring "

Summary: AJOLLY Testing’s recent conference showcased our cutting-edge remote monitoring solutions using National Instruments’ LabVIEW. We demonstrated the power of LabVIEW embedded systems through a live cross-continental interaction, controlling a cooling system in Paris from Mexico. Our session covered the essentials of control, monitoring, and testing, and featured a detailed look at our Paris system’s hardware and software. We also introduced LabVIEW’s capabilities, including shared variables and web server functions, emphasizing our commitment to innovation in industrial and scientific systems. Join us on our blog for insights into our advanced telematics engineering solutions.

It was a pleasure to give a conference about industrial and scientific systems of National Instruments during the international conferences in telematics engineering at the Polytechnic University of Durango, Mexico. During one hour I developed the theme of "LabVIEW Embedded systems for the variables monitoring": definition of what are the control, monitoring, simulation, test and measurement, a demonstration of programming with LabVIEW, a live video with my client at the Raspail Institute of Paris in France, to describe a cooling system using components from National Instruments and an embedded LabVIEW software I developed, to demonstrate the capabilities of remote control of the machine installed in Paris from Mexico.

Activities in 2007

Summary: we engineered a sophisticated supervision system for quality control of sand from quarries, pivotal in cement production. This system harnesses LabVIEW and the DSC module to ensure precise outcomes. Our instrumentation encompasses PLCs from Siemens, Mitsubishi, and Schneider, communicating via OPC, Modbus, Profibus, RS-232, as well as Compact FieldPoint, DIO, and DAQ. Furthermore, we have developed a cutting-edge test bench to assess the quality of gas production, vital for the food, pharmaceutical, and petrochemical industries. This system utilizes LabVIEW, Compact FieldPoint, DAQ, DIO, RS-232, AK protocol, and Emerson gas analyzers, guaranteeing adherence to the highest quality standards.

In 2007, “AJOLLY testing” fortified its leadership in the realm of testing and measurement solutions. Our accomplishments include the development of advanced systems for sand quality control in quarries, crucial for cement production, as well as the design of test benches for assessing the quality of gases used in the food, pharmaceutical, and petrochemical industries. Our projects are distinguished by the integration of cutting-edge technologies and sophisticated instrumentation, ensuring precision and reliability in our supervision and analysis processes. These initiatives are highlighted on our professional company blog, reflecting our dedication to innovation and excellence within the industry. 

• Raw material - Quarry Sand Quality Supervision System for Cement Production: AJOLLY testing developed a supervision system for quality control of quarry-extracted sand, aimed at cement production. This project featured the implementation of LabVIEW and the LabVIEW Data Logging and Supervisory Control (DSC) module for efficient data management. The instrumentation included Siemens, Mitsubishi, and Schneider PLCs, communicating via OPC, Modbus, Profibus, and RS-232. Compact FieldPoint, DIO, and DAQ were also utilized to ensure precise and reliable monitoring.
• Oil and Gas Industry - Test Bench for Gas Production Quality Control: AJOLLY testing specified and developed a test bench for quality control of gases produced in the food, pharmaceutical, and petrochemical industries. The project employed LabVIEW for the user interface and control logic. The instrumentation setup comprised Compact FieldPoint, DAQ, DIO, and RS-232, along with the AK protocol and Emerson gas analyzers, to ensure rigorous quality measurements in line with industrial standards.
