        abstract = {Automation is a need of time. Today in this modern era automation helps us to save time, cost as well as manpower. Vehicles are used extensively for transportation. It is also important to have easy and effective system for maintaining the vehicles cleanliness. Our paper focuses on car washing system using PLC and SCADA.
In developed countries automatic continuous automatic car washing system is already developed and is being used extensively.  In developing countries like India it is still uncommon and has lots of potential for development of such system and design.
Car washing can be done at spaces where cars can be parked for a long time and washing car can be done easily like fuel filling stations, super markets, hospitals, government buildings, railway stations etc..
Our car washing system has three main processes namely washing, cleaning and drying, Hence the exterior of the car will be washed by detecting the car on conveyor belt and further controlled by PLC & SCADA.},
