Abstract

Currently, the sources of a system for many machines are using the electrical, hydraulic and pneumatic component. To gain skills and knowledge on how to develop the system, this project is recommended with the title of “Automation Deflashing System for Blow Moulded Product”, there are many requirements is required such as the pneumatic component and Arduino UNO circuit system. The blow molding machine at the laboratory nowadays is manually operated for removing the bottle flashes. The finished product will have to flash at the bottom and neck. After blow moulding process, the knife is used to cut the bottle flashes. This project is to remove the bottle flashes with fully automated system operation. This project will also overcome the problem in the removal process of bottle flashes. Hence, an automation deflashing system for blow moulded product proposed in this thesis. The pneumatic cylinder has an electronic device that uses the Arduino Uno circuits, infrared obstacle avoidance sensor located on the blow molding machine during the cooling process. This is because infrared obstacle avoidance sensors used in this circuit to detect the object when the sensor have been blocked by the object and the Arduino Uno circuit will activate the solenoid valve that is installed on the side the blow molding machine. The solenoid valve will supply the air pressure to give force for the pneumatic cylinder extends. For the pneumatic circuit, FluidSim software has been required to see the process of the pneumatic system before it implemented.
