hvsadmin — Fri, 21 Aug 2026 13:21:00 +0000

The system is a pneumatic powered metal made pick and place arm. It demonstrates how a pneumatic power can be utilized to achieve pick and place mechanism. The system makes use of 2 pneumatic actuators to achieve the purpose.

The robotic arm is controlled by 2 pneumatic valves. The valves control the air flow to the pneumatic actuators in order to control the movement of the cylinder stroke. The valves give a manual control to control over the entire arm movement.

The system uses a gripper which is attached to the Robotic ARM along with servo MOTOR. The other valves work in coordination to achieve the complete arm movement held together by a series of linkages and connector rods.

Features:

360-Degree Rotation: The DC motor-driven base allows for full rotational movement, enabling the arm to cover a wide operational area.
Pneumatic Actuation: Utilizes two pneumatic cylinders for smooth and powerful movement, enhancing the arm’s flexibility and responsiveness.
User-Friendly Control Interface: Equipped with switches that activate relays, simplifying the operation and control of the arm’s functions.
Precision Gripper: A servo motor operates the gripper, providing precise control for handling various objects, accommodating different sizes and shapes.

The major building blocks of this project are:

Power Supply.
TWO Pneumatics.
Switch.
Servo Motor.
Gripper.
DC motor.
ARM setup.
Two Valve.
Air compressor.

With the existing push in the direction of sustainable, clean sources of power, it is no surprise that solar power has become one of the most popular alternative energy sources. Free and available everywhere, the power of the sun can be employed to power everything like cell phones and motors. The sun’s energy is usually harvested through solar panels that are made up of photovoltaic cells. These cells can convert the sun’s power into electricity that can be used for a number of purposes. For private use, a handheld solar hybrid charger can be employed to recharge little device for instance a DC fan, a cell phone, or a camera.

This project consists of Microcontroller based control unit that continuously monitors and controls the air pressure. This live pressure value gets display on Alpha Numeric LCD display in real time. Regulated output of Solar cell is connected to rechargeable battery through a unidirectional current flow circuitry. This particular charged battery output given as input to the air compressor motor, this motor will be controlled by the user manually using control buttons and also automatically by micro controller by a set point.

In this project micro controller has the input modules like pressure sensor, control buttons and output modules are LCD display, compressor switching driver and buzzer to give alarm in case of high pressure.

The objectives of the project include:

Dynamic tire pressure setting.
Usage of Solar energy.
Continuous monitoring of air pressure on LCD.
Alerts of improper inflated tires.

The major building blocks of this project are:

Regulated Power supply.
Microcontroller.
LED Indicators.
LCD display unit.
Relay circuit.
Solar panel.
Buzzer.
Pressure sensor

Software’s used:

PIC-C compiler for Embedded C programming.
PIC kit 2 programmer for dumping code into Micro controller.
Express SCH for Circuit design.
