Vibration Measurement of a Screening Machine
116-123Views:171In this paper we use linear vibration approach to make a model of a horizontal vibration screen, which can be applied at gravel pit in order to perform separation operation of the wet gravel particles. The model can produce the natural frequencies of the system, which are useful in the adjustment of the angular velocity of the vibration exciter. A laser triangulation unit is well applicable to measure peak-to-peak amplitude of the working vibration screen. Comparison has been performed between the results of the simulation and the measurements.

Kinematics and Control of a Planar Cable Robot
88-95Views:137This paper deals with the kinematics and control of a planar cable robot [1], which is driven by four DC motors with gear. Cable robots are frequently used e.g., for the motion of cameras in sport halls and stadiums and also in high storage logistical systems [2]. Main goal of this research work is to design and build a test bench with low budget, which can model the motion of real life cable robots.

Development of a Low-cost Pressure Sensor
33-38Views:236In this paper development of a pressure sensor has been discussed. The main benefit of this sensor is relatively cheap compared to commercially available ones. The unit contains a beam type load cell and a pneumatic cylinder. The load cell has 4 strain gauges in Wheatstone bridge configuration in order to convert the change of resistance into measurable voltage. The system is well applicable in numerous circumstances, where digital pressure signal is necessary for control or data acquisition.
