Prototype of a conveyor system using the at mega 16 microcontroller
The main idea of this thesis is to control the carrier distribution on the conveyor's belt using a microcontroller (AT mega 16) as the controller device. There are 3 stations in the conveyor. First, the home station is the station that is identified as the initial position of the carrier. This is the starting point of the carrier's circulation. Secondly, the SCADA will send the command to deliver the carrier to the warehouse station. Here, the carrier will received a palette which is transported by the 3 axis robot from the warehouse to the top of the carrier. Then, the carrier moves to the last station, the robot station. There are 3 major components here. The first one is the arm robot, which is picking the material from the palette and sends it to the testing station. In the testing station, the material will be checked whether it is in the rigHTM position to assembly or not. Then if it is not, will be sent to the orientating station. The orientating device is going to flip the material up to the rigHTM position. And then, it will be sent back to the testing station. The arm robot will also pick it up and put it back to the palette. After that, the carrier will be sent back the palette to the warehouse station. Afterward the carrier will go back to its home. This is the whole process of the conveyor system.
