ABSTRACT: This paper introduces the design method of a multifunctional automatic food cleaning machine based on SIMATIC LOGO!, which can be used to automatically clean fruits, vegetables, grains, meat and other foods by using the combination of the three cleaning methods, ultrasonic, ozone and air bubble. The process of development of the system illustrated through explaining the working principle, product appearance design, construction design, hardware and software design. A physical prototype has been developed according to the design method proposed, and the test verifies that it realizes the functions by the design purpose. It has the advantages of simple structure, easy operation, high automation, working reliably and efficiently, which helps to get rid of the traditional hand-washing pattern, and has wide application prospect and huge market demand.
