Objective:
Use LabVIEW to develop an efficient and fully automated assembly line controller.
Responsibilities:
Create and implement the algorithms used by the assembly line to identify, sort, and assemble combinations of components using its various sensors, actuators, and motors.
Tools:
LabVIEW
Timeline:
4 months
Project Summary

This project was done in a team of 2. My partner and I used a variety of tools available in LabVIEW to implement the logic required to run this machine. Features we implemented include the following:

  • Real-time feedback: A GUI was created to capture the status of sensors and actuators.
  • System Recovery: In the event of a power failure, the system was able to restart at the exact moment prior to shutting down and retrieve any data from the previous run.
  • Data capture and analysis: The system was capable of storing the number of parts that were processed and rejected. This information was used to calculate the overall efficiency of the system.
    • Project Outcomes

    We were able to fulfill all project requirements and deliver a robust solution.
