Abstract
This design is aimed at using Siemens S7-1500 series PLC as the control system, and using a single six story elevator simulation model as the controlled object. After consulting literature on PLC controlled elevator systems and studying the control technology schemes used in the literature, the control design for a single elevator was completed. A group control algorithm based on scheduling principles was adopted to minimize waiting time and receive call signals from each elevator. By calculating the time required for each elevator, the shortest elevator was selected for transportation. Compared to other group control algorithms, the implementation of this group control algorithm is simple, has a short development cycle, and has good control effects. It can well meet the design requirements of passenger capacity, average waiting time, average passenger travel time, and overall system energy consumption.
