activates the timer on delay T4:2. This allows energizing solenoid valve B inrung 5 and retracting the actuator arm to its original position.In rung 6, the normally open input done bit T4:2/DN is connected to an output reset T4:0. Aftertime elapsed two seconds in timer on delay T4:2, the reset re-energizes the input T4:0/EN inrung 0, in order to restart the conveyor belt.In rung 7, the normally open input I:1/1 is connected to a counter up C5:1 with a preset of 1000parts. Every time a part breaks the light beam of the photoelectric sensor the counter counts upuntil the number reaches 1000, which indicate the storage area is full.Figure 3 shows the sequence of pulses applied to conveyor’s motor and double solenoid valve Aand B.

The specific engineering focus of this project included the following: a) framing supportstructure and glass test section design, b) pump selection, c) flow conditioning to enable laminarfreestream flow, d) controls with implementation, and e) filtration analysis. In fact, this projectreinforced the goals of the degree program by providing problems that required knowledge inElectrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, and Controls Engineering. Students not onlyhad to employ their engineering skills to design and implement, but also were confronted withtime and budget as well as interacting with different vendors. In particular, students had tocombine their knowledge in the field of Statics

Based on the manufacturing quantities the students decided: a) type ofmanufacturing strategy for the product and manufacturing method to be used; b) a layout of themanufacturing area; c) the machines and equipment to be used in the plant; d) the productioncontrol techniques; e) an estimate of unit cost of production and the market price of the product;and, f) an economic analysis to justify the unit cost of the product

There also may be biases due to a preference for one's own teachingmethods. These can be ameliorated by using several people and providing them training in whatto look for and how to develop the appropriate information.

The L293D comes in a standard 16-pin,dual-in line integrated circuit package, with built in fly back diodes to minimize inductivevoltage spikes. The L293 is limited to 600 mA, but in reality can only handle much smallcurrents about 200mA. It works on the principle of H-Bridge.H-BridgeH-Bridges allow forward and reverse motor control. To get a motor to turn in one direction,simply close an opposing pair of switches. For instance, as shown in Figure 4 by closing theswitches A and D motor turn in one direction and the B and C switch close with A and D open,then the motor turns to the opposite direction. To exhibit this action it has to control the switches.In some cases, 4 transistors will work
