Control System Development and Implementation of a CNC Laser Engraver for Environmental Use with Remote Imaging

Abstract

This article is aimed at studying the features of the control systems development for a small-sized Computer Numerical Control (CNC) portative laser engraver. The CNC is implemented in mobile maintenance and repair platforms for remote sensing of the environment where the wild environment may not allow us to access the animals and places. The proposed work in this paper is based on recent research, which shows that applying the automated CNC speeds up the processes of repair, modernizes the equipment size, and significantly reduces the economic costs; accordingly, the authors developed a block diagram of a portable CNC laser engraver. The choice of the hardware was also made, taking into account the possibility of quick replacement in the field, which reduces the repair time and the cost of the developed layout. A control system based on the selected modules was synthesized, and a stability check was carried out using MatLab tools. To check the correctness of the developed control system, the authors developed and assembled an experimental layout to illustrate the results of engraving on such a layout. Finally, the stability and sensitivity of the proposed system have been obtained and proved that the system works in a comfortable zone of stability. The obtained results show that the proposed CNC laser engraver has achieved the expected improvements (high speed, small size, short production and repairing time, minimum human influence factor, and achieving a better outcome).

An Automatic Assembly SMT Production Line Operation Technological Process Simulation Model Development

“…To simulate the developed Q-diagram of the technological process of SMT assembly, the simulation modeling language General Purpose System Simulation (GPSS) will be used in the GPSS World package of Minuteman Software [17][18][19][20]. Based on the chosen environment and modeling language, the following SMT assembly technological process block diagram was developed, which is presented in Figure 4.…”

It has been posited that the implementation of an advanced control system tailored for environmental settings holds the potential to enhance environmental quality [10].…”

Comparative Analysis of the Basic Methods Used in Industry 4.0 and Industry 5.0.

“…In addition, Industry 5.0 involves the penetration of artificial intelligence into human life in order to increase its potential. In Industry 5.0, advanced IT technologies, the Internet of Things, robots, artificial intelligence and augmented reality are actively used in the industry for the benefit and convenience of human workers [2][3][4]. Industry 5.0 recognizes the ability of industry to meet social challenges that go beyond employment and development, to become a sustainable source of development, making production aware of the limitations of our planet and prioritizing the health of employees.…”

“…In summary, Industry 5.0 is a vision to make industry a more sustainable, human-centered, and safer collaborative work environment. Some see it as an evolutionary, gradual development based on the concepts and practices of Industry 4.0, while others see Industry 5.0 as an addition to the Industry 4.0 paradigm [8][9][10][11][12][13].…”
