Project Information
Project Title:
Design and Development of LabVIEW based Pneumatically Operated Automated Drilling and Clamping System
Hardware & Software Used:
Hardware Used: NI DAQ 6009, Double acting Pneumatic Cylinders (3 Nos.), Directional Control Valves
Software Used: LabVIEW 2012
What challenge/problem are you trying to solve through your application:
Develop Windows based application using NI LabVIEW to perform pneumatically operated automated drilling and clamping system for manufacturing set up.
How does your application solves the above mentioned challenge/problem:
Software developed using NI LabVIEW need less development time as compared to other techniques to automate the drilling process. This will replace the complex circuitry and wiring required to configure the system.
The actual industrial application will be – A vertical test rig is fabricated inside a sound-proof chamber for mounting the pneumatic drill under test. Pneumatic actuators controlled by digital signals are used to activate the lever on the drill. Air flow to the drill is controlled using a flow meter. The number of strokes it generates is gauged using the knock sensor fitted on the rig. Optical sensors are used to measure the number of rotations of rotary tools. A pressure transmitter is used to indicate air pressure on the PC monitor while the test is running.
The operator also has a facility to generate reports shift-wise, day-wise, month-wise or year-wise for a particular component type. Operator can even print any report for production records outside the department.
Description of Project:
Pneumatic drill is a tool used for heavy digging operations. It is powered by compressed air. Depending upon its mechanical design it can produce a fixed number of strokes for a particular air flow rate. The LabVIEW based system thus controls the actuation of pneumatic cylinder to perform the following sequential actions:
- Clamp the job to its position
- Perform drilling action
- Move the tool back to its home position
- Unclamp the job
