Magnetic Levitation • Small neodymium magnet suspended a minimum of 2 inches from solenoid • Secondary Objective • Movement Control • 1st Vertical • 2nd Horizontal Project Overview
Milestones Completed Milestones Since NovemberProgram Review • Fri 22 Nov • Create initial plan for prototype build • Fri 6 Dec • Finalize prototype plans • Determine lead time for any technician help. • All parts purchased or ordered • Fri 17 Jan • Begin programming for Arduino
Milestones Completed Milestones Since NovemberProgram Review • Fri 24 Jan • Begin prototype build • Fri 31 Jan • Prototype build 50% complete • Fri 7 Feb • Begin testing/debugging of prototype
MissedMilestones Since NovemberProgram Review • Fri 7 Feb • Prototype build 100% complete • Begin testing/debugging of prototype Milestones
Upcoming Milestones • Fri 21 Feb • Have at least 1 dimensional movement working • Fri 28 Feb • Comprehensive Exams • Fri 07 Mar • Complete Final Report Document initial write • Fri 21 Mar • Complete Final Report, first complete draft (ver. 0.9) Milestones
Overloading the power supply • Reduce Voltage from source • Current Max = 6-A, to defeat gravity • Precise adjustments for negative feedback • Hall sensor output range from 0-5 V truncated to 2.5 -5 V, then expanded back to 0-5 V • Get a reasonably sized heat sink!! Minor Complications
Overall Team 125 is on track! • Milestones • Oregon snow caused some “slipping” • Tele-comuting/ task delegation • Minor complication solutions being implemented! Summary
