Abstract

The traverse system is the system that moving the objects in different direction, which can be detremined the axis that want either 1D axis, 2D axis, 3D axis, or 5D axis. A wide range of industries and applications use the traverse system, from robotics to wind tunnel investigations of all sizes and types. The design structural of traverse system determines its stength, speed, workability and weight. One of the application used by traverse system is particle image velocimetry (PIV). The flow measurement accuracy is critical and requires a lot of calibration work. Thus, an automated traversal system is needed to make data collection is more efficient and precise. To build a 3D axis system, an arduino board can be used to run the system on automortion. The traverse system can be made of standard aluminium profile where the camera can be mounted to travel autonomously. The arduino is and open-source electronics platform based on hardware and software that simple to use. With the use of arduino board, the input gain can be turned into an output, signaled the motor to be activated. Result show the speed of X-axis is 32.40mm/s, Y-axis is 27.79mm/s and Z axis is 7.87mm/s and for the vibration on the system which the Z-axis minimum 11.35m/s and maximum 26.90m/s, Y-axis minimum 2.58m/s and maximum 6.77m/s and X-axis minimum 2.44m/s and maximum 6.84m/s. For the stability, the angle of 3-axis which the result is 180 degree for X and Y axis and 90 degree for Z axis which it is great for the 3-axis traverse system.
