Abstract: this paper presents machine vision approach to put and inspect the integrity of LPG cylinder seals. Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC) are used in industries over a decade because of its robust nature, computational power and applications beyond automation and control. Due to its advance features and high speed computations it can be easily used in designing a new sealing unit for sealing LPG cylinders. This paper focuses on Allen Bradley microtransistor 800 model which is widely used in the industries. PLC will be used to monitor the temperature, control the movement of LPG cylinders and seal them once they enter the unit. The whole sealing process should take place only if the temperature of hot air is above 250°C. This hot air will be passed onto the blue color plastic cover so that it seals it. SCADA will be used to monitor sealing unit from distance.
