Implementation of IOT and Intelligent Control in Rectifiers and Control of Pneumatic Valves for the Optimization of the Process of Chrome Plating and Pickling of Hydraulic Components

This article analyzes how to integrate IoT technology in industrial rectifiers to optimize the chrome plating and pickling process in a more productive, efficient, and accurate way to improve production time by human manipulation and replace daytime work with remote and automated monitoring; obtain precision in terms of calibration of parameters and functions in chrome plating and pickling of hydraulic components through the pneumatic agitation system, using DC rectifiers and pneumatic valves, as these regulate the direct current necessary to perform the electrochemical process. The implementation allows monitoring via web server using an independent HTTP server for each component, allowing the visualization of real-time parameters such as voltage, current, rectifier failures, and temperature, while an intelligent control with ESP32 performs automatic adjustments and improvement in the quality of the process, such as proper timing, depending on hours required by the component, this approach also favors energy efficiency and predictive maintenance in rectifiers, thus contributing to the optimization of costs and resources in this industry.
