Complete your final project, tracking your progress

What is deadline? How much time do I have left?

Deadline of the project is 22th MAY, I will leave Vigyan Ashram 22th MAY, for that reason I started my final project on 1st MAY. 21 days to left for finalize the project .

Time Management about to make final project

According to the gnatt chart i follow all task and tried hard and soul to complete my final project

As a time management, I generally try to work advance from the deadline and I take into target to complete my project within middle of the MAY, 2018. During the non-busy times, I will then try to fill in the gaps with affordable goals in the available times, but with ample space to account for possible failures or delays. During the busy times, I try to work on computer tasks that don’t require equipment, like for example, documentation, image edition and general work on the site.

What tasks have been completed, and what tasks remain?

Here I'm going to make a Laminar Air Flow based Desktop Cleaning Bench. Where I want to add heating coil for sterilization purpose, as project rules to control it by micro-controller. Where I fix the temperature range and how to control it by LM35 temperature sensor.

Major completed task:

  • 1. I did market survey and decided my customer i.e Lab Researcher.
  • 2. Purchase all component until which it fixed to work
  • 3. Made 2D and 3D design in Fusion360.
  • 4. Made 3D printed parts (hinge) of the project and cut the box in laser cutter.
  • 5. Made temperature sensor as input device to control the heating coil according to temperature high and low value.

What has worked? What hasn't?

Working:-

  • 1. The structure or box is fitting. I designed it two component in upper and back part, In upper part where I doing electrical wiring and other parts assembly and back part where i fixed filter area and fan in back. in the laser cutter.
  • 2. So, Assembly is done.
  • 3. Also My presentation slide is ready.

  • Not Working:-

  • 1. The project code was not working. I have to work on it.
  • 2. Electronics part was remaining.
  • 3. Relay board is not working, that why I used commercial relay board.

What questions need to be resolved?

  • 1. Need to understand the relay circuit and connections.
  • 2. Need to work on programming of the project.
  • 3. Need to do electronics packaging.
  • 4. Need to do proper design aspect

How will complete the remaining task?

  • 1. I will check my project code and if I have any difficulty then I will discuss with my instructor.
  • 2. After completing the electronics and programming part I will make the enclosure for them and do the proper wiring.

Summary about project

In FABACADEMY2018, I'm S. M. Anamul Arefin from Bangladesh joined this year as node of Vigyan Ashram, Pabal, India. I'm the first Bangladeshi who are take part of FABLAB graduate community.

In this, I going to make a Cleaning bench as smal, called desktop size which has been made follow by all manufacturing process. As am i student of bioscience, some during working in lab on Lamiar cleaning hood, we are used burner for sterilization generally. Instead of burner I used DC heating coil for creating heat on the inside of the cabinet and its control by temperature sensor which is doing switch on/off. The I used also UV-C Germicidal light with 0.3um Laminar filter for control the air from the fan . The fan also operating from the zero static pressure for proper air ventilation.I make this cabinet for first steps of the whos are want to work on bioscience and also doing any tissue culture within tested on it. Now This project are using on the Microbiology lab of Vigyan Ashram.

What have you learned?

  • 1. I came to know about various 2D and 3D designing software.
  • 2. Electronics and programming was very new for me.
  • 3. I came to know about various machines like laser cutter, 3D printer,etc.
  • 4. I came to know about hand saw operation and its maintenance etc.
