Abstract

This Final Year Project (FYP) presents an investigation into the application of fish feeder system in the Small Medium Industry (SMI). This system utilizes robot as a medium to dispense food for livestock. The robot moves from one pond to another, controlled by Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) using CX Programmer V6 software. The aim of the project is to fabricate a prototype which operates automatically and systematically. To fabricate the prototype, aluminum is used as the main material for project frame. This project consists of three parts which are the main t:a.nk, robot and circuit box. In addition, the system used involves three processes which are the setting, filling and feeding process. In this project, four circuits type are being used. They are the infrared circuit, radio frequency circuit, forward reverse circuit and power supply circuit. Apart from that, this project also focuses on software development using ex Programmer V6 to control the entire feeding process. The result from the project's research shows that the robot's movement to the feeder process could be recorded in terms of time and robot's movement condition. Based on the result, methods to reduce interference were identified. Suggestions for future work are also included.
