Development of Measurement and Control System of Rearing Environment for Insect Factory (Part 1)

Configuration of Simulation System and Fundamental Examination

Abstract

A measurement and control system was constructed and tested to develop a full automatic control system for insect factory. The system consists of micro-computer, programmable controller, incubator, switches, lamps, sensors etc. The measuring and controlling functions of this system were evaluated. As the results, the possibility to realize the automated operation of the silkworm rearing machine in silkworm rearing factory was obtained. This control system was also devised to feedback control with optimal temperature in real time.
