1 TOPIC OF THE DEMO SET
The industrial topic of this innovation tour is simulation of an industrial bottling plant for various fruit juice drinks. The virtual plant comprises a tank
system, a mixing vessel and a bottling machine comprising an infeed conveyor, filling station, labeling unit and an outgoing conveyor.
For the purposes of clarity, the plant is subdivided into two functional areas:
• Stocking
The plant described here is presented in a simplified manner, because the objective is not to emphasize production details, but instead to de-
monstrate the functional scope of the engineering software "TIA Portal V11" in the course of an industrial production lifecyle.

1.1 Functionality of the "Stocking" area
In soft drink stocking, there is an external area that lies outside the production area. There are five tanks in this area for storing different soft drink in-
gredients. Each tank is controlled via a separate valve. The fill level of the individual tanks will drop in accordance with the recipe that is made up in
the mixing tank.
Every time the recipe changes, the mixing tank is emptied (the rinsing process is omitted). The mixing tank has a drain valve for this purpose (fill le-
vel falls to zero). The fill level of the mixing tank also depends on the bottle filling process. When a bottle is filled, the fill level of the mixing tank falls.
When the mixing process is completed, bottle filling can start.
• Conveyor belt 1 transfers empty bottles from storage to turntable 1. The turntable can accept a specific number of bottles and holds the
bottles in place during the filling process.
• The filling station is located above turntable 1; it fills the bottles with the soft drink provided in the mixing tank, and seals them.
• Conveyor belt 2 transfers the sealed bottles to turntable 2. This turntable can also accept a specific number of bottles and holds the bottles
in place during the labeling process.
• The labeling station is located at turntable 2. This glues a printed label to the bottle.

2 COMPONENTS OF THE DEMO SET
The industrial process described above is demonstrated by means of demo cases and a PC simulation. The demo cases do not contain any function
elements, only automation components.
• Demo case 1
• Demo case 2
• Demo case 3
• Field PG M3 (2)

2.3 Demo case 1
Demo case 1 contains two S7-300 PLCs and a Comfort Panel. It is used to control and operate the plant.
9 / 52
2.5 Demo case 3
Demo case 3 contains Safety functions. This case will not function with TIA Portal Version 11 (Build 25 & 36).
10 / 52
2.7 Interaction between the simulation and the demo cases
The demo cases are assigned to different areas of the plant simulation:
• Demo case 3 -> Safety switching devices (not used with TIA Portal V11, Build 25 & 36)

2.8 Presentation of the live demo
For presentation of the live demo, two Field PG M3s are available that are thematically assigned, one to the engineering and one to the plant simula-
tion. Each PG is equipped with its own beamer, so that independent presentations are possible.
12 / 52
The sequence of the live demo alternates between the two PGs. The following diagram shows the time sequence, on the basis of a use case.
The engineering PG is used in steps 1 and 3, and the PG with the plant simulation is used in step 2.

3 ASSEMBLING AND SWITCHING ON THE DEMO SET
Connect the cases to a suitable 230 V AC socket outlet using the supplied mains cables at the back.
Switch the demo cases on, one after the other, at the illuminated rocker switch on the back of the case. The switch-on sequence can be random.
14 / 52
3.2.1 Establish a connection to demo case 1
Connect the Field PG M3 and the Scalance XF208 in demo case 1 with a suitable network cable.
You must use the Ethernet interface shown on the Field PG for this purpose.
PLEASE NOTE: A WLAN connection between the demo case and the Field PG is not possible.
