Resumen

For the production of white chuño or also called tunta, a suitable environment is needed concerning temperature since they must be produced in very cold temperatures. To create a greenhouse in an HMI interface in the LabVIEW program maintaining the production phases (first freezing, leaching in water, second freezing, and the peeling), where a belt with rollers that classifies the potatoes is used, also a temperature sensor that will help to measure this parameter in real-Time, following it enters the tanks with turbines for the leaching phase and then the presses help the removal of the peels and excess water. In conclusion, the system allows to control in real-Time the internal temperature of the greenhouse replicating the temperature that occurs in the Andes, the HMI interface helps with the monitoring and control of the processes that are being carried out, on the other hand, the results showed the potential that the system must produce white chuño.
