Abstract
This paper proposes novel approach for automation of small scale soap industry using dedicated Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA). Usually Programmable logic controllers (PLCs) are used in automation of soap industries. But FPGA's fast processing ability, synchronized signal generation, parallel reactive architecture, compactness and cost effective nature makes this logic device a better candidate than PLC. With small parameter variations in reconfigurable FPGA, different soaps of different qualities like color, transparency, softness, etc. can be manufactured. Two new approaches of automation of soap industry using FPGA with Petri net and LabVIEW is proposed. In addition, a comparative evaluation of the two proposed approaches is done based on the results.
