Resumen

The 18-hole King Kong bricks represent 55.8% of the material used in the construction of houses in Peru, the brick companies lack temperature controls since the OEFA paralyzed the brick activities due to excessive contamination in the firing stage. This work develops an automatic and manual temperature control system to improve production times in the company 'Ladrillera El Toro S.A.C'. For the mechanical design, SolidWorks was used to place the entry gates of the bricks to the kiln, which inside the kiln thermocouples were installed to monitor temperatures in real time by programming blocks using TIA PORTAL connection adding a PLC S7-1200 1214 DC/DC/DC and a HMI TP700. Finally implementing the improvement proposal eliminated 1 day of assembly in artisan doors and has an adequate management of the required temperature of 950 degrees Celsius for the firing of the bricks having the manual and automatic option that allows to control the sawdust and chips once reached the temperature programmed by the operator, allowing to increase production and eliminating the bottlenecks of the company 'Ladrillera El Toro S.A.C.'.
