Presentation Transcript

  1. Magnetic Manipulator • Team 125 • Marley Rutkowski John Olennikov Benjamin Younce Chad Perkins • Faculty Advisor: Dr.  Robert Albright • Industrial Advisor: Andy McConnell • Client: Dr. Mark Utlaut

  2. Our Project • GOAL: • Achieve controlled levitation in 1D (or 2D) space • HOW: • Monitor Lev position • Switch Electromagnets on/off if below/above desired position

  3. System Block Diagram

  4. Design Challenges • Design and implement hardware and software to drive electromagnets and sense levitating object position • Experiment with system and optimize hardware and Arduino code for stable controlled levitation

  5. Risks • Controlled levitation in 2D is more difficult to achieve than expected • Testing and optimization is difficult / takes too long • A part breaks or malfunctions

  6. Primary Milestones • Fri 15 Nov - Complete Design Document Complete Final Budget • Fri 6 Dec - Finalize prototype plans. All parts purchased or ordered • Fri 24 Jan - Begin prototype build • Fri 7 Feb - Prototype build 100% complete. Begin testing/debugging of prototype • Fri 21 Feb - Have at least 1 dimensional movement working • Fri 04 Apr - Present Final Program Review with Demonstration. Complete Final Report • Tue 08 Apr - Present Founder’s Day (Project Presentation)

  7. Questions? ;-)
