MOTOR AND ADAPTOR SELECTION:. MOTOR SELECTION: Torque for Belt Drive: Volume of upper portion = (0.020+0.005)m^3 = 0.025m^3 Density of bot above belt drive = 200 kg/m^3 Mass of Bot above the bet drive = Density x Volume = 0.025 x 200 kg/m^3 = 5kg Mass of Motors(4 motors) = 1 kg. Mass of(load) and other materials = (0.1+0.4) = 0.5 kg. Total mass = 5.5 kg. Coefficient of friction = 0.7 Force(Horizontal) = µ x mass x gravity.(µ = 0.7, mass = 5 kg, gravity = 9.81 m/s^2) Force = 0.7 x 5.5 x 9.81 = 34.335 N. Torque = Force x perpendicular distance.(Force = 34.335 N, perpendicular distance = 2 cm) Torque = 34.335 x 2 = 68.67 N-cm. Torque = 7.63 kg-cm. Torque with (FOS = Factor of safety =1.5) = 10.5 kg-cm. As torque is divided amidst two motors, so the torque for each motor will be = 5.2 kg-cm..

Scene 23 (7m 38s)

Torque for Conveyer Belt: Volume of Conveyer Belt = 0.003m^3. Volume of rod and middle plank(2 rods) = 0.00059m^3. Total Volume = 0.00359m^3 Density of belt drive = 500 kg/m^3 Mass of motor = 0.3 k*g. Mass of load = 0.1kg Mass of belt drive = 1.695 kg. Total mass = 1.795 kg. Coefficient of friction = 0.7 Force(Vertical and Horizontal) = mass x gravity x (u x cos(theta) + sin(theta) .(mass = 1 kg, gravity = 9.81 m/s^2, u = 0.7) Force = 17.50 N Torque = Force x perpendicular distance.(Force = 9.81 N, perpendicular distance = 2.5 cm) Torque = 17.50 x 2.5 = 36.01 N-cm. Torque = 3.67 kg-cm. Torque with (Factor of safety =1.5) = 3.67 x 1.5 = 5.50 kg-cm..

Scene 24 (8m 14s)

Adapter selection:. ADAPTER SELECTION: For DC motor(Belt drive): Stepper motor of operating voltage 12V. Nominal current = 300mA. Number of motors =2. Total current = number of motors x 300mA = 2 x 300mA = 0.6A. Total Current with (FOS = Factor of safety = 1.2) = 0.6 x 1.2 = 0.72A. So the adapter required for the following is 12V of 1A. For stepper motor(Conveyer belt) Stepper motor of operating voltage 5V. Nominal current = 300mA = 0.3A. Total current = 300mA = 0.3A. Total Current with (FOS = Factor of safety = 1.2) = 0.3 x 1.2 = 0.36A. So the adapter required for the following is 5V of 1A. For servo motor(Rack and Pinion): Servo motor of operating voltage 5V. Nominal current = 250mA. Total Current = 250mA. Total Current with (FOS = Factor of safety = 1.2)= 300mA. So the adapter required for the following is 5V of 1A. Therefore in conclusion a 12V,1A and a 5V,1A adapters are required..

[Audio] The total embodied energy= 128.54 MJ/Kg. Best alternatives. Composite materials, such as carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRP), offer excellent strength-to-weight ratios and can significantly reduce the embodied energy compared to aluminum. Instead of using nylon rods, using recycled materials such as recycled plastic or recycled metal can reduce the energy required for extracting and processing raw materials. Polycarbonate sheets compared to acrylic sheet which has less embodied energy compared to acrylic sheet. Cellular concrete, also known as aerated concrete, is a lightweight and energy-efficient alternative for usage of foam boards since they have similar material properties. Fiberglass-reinforced plastic rods compared to Iron ore which has less embodied energy compared to Iron ore..
