Automated Manufacturing in Remote Areas Using Micro- Controllers

Punit Anand, Anand M. Sharan

Robots in manufacturing, Microcontroller based manufacturing, Robot and machines having co-ordinated motions.

To achieve economical production, automation using micro-controllers have been used. This is carried out by mounting a frame for weaving a pattern on the end effector of an X-Y robot. The robot operates in conjunction with a sewing machine. The energy for driving these dc motor powered machines is obtained using photo-voltaic panels. The co-ordinated motions for the robot and sewing machine are obtained by programming a controller in mikrobasic language.
