Applications and Implications




Assignment
Plan and document a final project that integrates the range of units covered:


What will it do?

They perform adaptation of a mechanism that can be used in almost any CNC-Router, this time going to work with AXYZ CNC router 4008; However, adaptation can work for any CNC Router just modify the base to place the router, which is to design and manufacture the basic principles of a knitter 3D kinematics. Similarly to perform a base fabric with hooks for 3D woven mesh is necessary.

Who's done what beforehand?

In marginalized communities in Chiapas Tzotzil women are dedicated to developing rich colors woven fabrics and geometries applied in clothing and in everyday life and in quilts

These fabrics are made by means of tools and mechanisms made ​​of wood and basic principles of kinematics and hand finished.

Adaptation to the CNC numerical control machine is intended as a first aid to develop these tissues by mechanical means, the final idea is to perfect progresivanete and provide each family a CNC Tzotzil of Chiapas communities.

What materials and components will be required?

Mechanical components

   * Bearings of inside diameter: 3 mm, external diameter: 10 mm and width of sleeve: 5 mm
  
   * Servomotor torque max 15 kg-cm

     Brand GOTECK

        Model GS-5515MG


    * Gearmotor relation 100:1

    Brand POLOLU

Electronic Component

* Resistors of 330, 1000 and 270 ohms
* Transistors NPN
* Solenoid of 5 V
* Capacitors 1 pf, 100 μF
* Sensor Limit Switches (Microswitch with lamina 5A )
    Model SS0501A

* Phenolic Plate
*
Integrated Circuits:
    > ATtiny 45
    > ATtiny 328P
    > L293 (
Integrated Circuit SN754410NE which is an H-bridge Driver with diodes.)



 * Terminal 2 way 3.5 mm

   

* Board FabISP
* Cable number 22
* Cable FTDI

   * 40-pin single strip


   * 50 f-f wires 30 cm color

Material manufacture

* MDF Wood of 12 mm
* Acrylic glass of 5 mm
* Adhesives
* Epoxy resins

Where will they come from?

The motors will be purchased from a company called Robodacta bearings and a deposit of nonfunctional electronic objects in the university.  The electronics are bought in DIGI-KEY and AG Electronics and materials manufacturing a container of scrap material that is told in the FabLab for students to leave and have the material in is, some of it will acquire in a wooden house called Masisa.

How much will it cost?

The approximate cost of the adaptation of the numerical control machine is 220 USD


What parts and systems will be made?

* Train rack and pinion gears and was applied in the thread tension

 * Limit sensor and controlled for gearmotor designing control with a L293

 * FabArduino to receive the signals from the sensors limit switches to measure and control the engine that will power the gear train.

 * Gear Train

What processes are used?

For the preparation of the altered parts will be made in CNC Laser cutting and CNC cutting

What processes will be used?

Design the whole CNC programming to run GCode

Elaboration of calculating gear trains

Perfect design of the mechanisms.

Tablet design FabISP

CAD finish drawing the adaptation of the machine

CAM processing of all GCode


What tasks need to be completed?

As originate a GCode to make it compatible with the geometry ofa handmade fabric?

Not resolved the realization of the threads tie knot, how?

As I will design hooks weaver who caught the needle thread?


What is the schedule?

The date of preparation for the final project is 22 to May 29 with hours from 8:00 am to 10.00pm to meet all requirements of the adaptation of the CNC


How will it be evaluated?

Assessing the Tzotzil women undertake when the project is completed individually CNC router for each house in the communities in Chiapas.
