Introduction
The project has been given to our group is to design and develop a prototype of a
device that can move a camera in 2D positioning system for an application in engineering.
The purposes of this device are easier to control a camera during adjustment and to have a
good vision in detecting a scratch on an object in engineering application. In addition, we are
required to design an automated device which is the device can be controlled by buttons.
There are already have two devices existing in the same concept that available in market
which are:

Alternative 3 is chosen. Compared to Alternative 1 which utilized lead screw which is costly,
Alternative 3 has medium manufacturing cost. Compared to Alternative 2, Alternative 3 uses
linear bearing instead of roller, this reduces friction. Since we did not utilize roller in
Alternative 3, we are not required to machine the roller track, hence making
manufacturability easier. Alternative 3 also has the lightest weight, which is one of the most
important criteria in robust design.
4.2.3 Material Selection
By referring to the availability of materials in USM Workshop storeroom, we decided to use
Aluminium T6061 for all the parts in our prototype.
Material Properties of Aluminium T6061:
Density: 2700kg/3
Ultimate Tensile Strength: 310MPa
Tensile Yield Strength: 276MPa
Modulus of Elasticity: 68.9GPa
Shear Modulus: 26GPa
Shear Strength: 207MPa

We deduce that Aluminium T6061 is strong enough to sustain the load without any
significant deformation. This will be proven in calculations section.

Force acted = mg = 0.7928(9.81) =7.7774 N
The force are shared into 2 shafts, hence force on each shaft = 3.8887 N

Modulus of Elasticity, E=68.9GPa
=48(68.9109 )(4.9087x1010 )
= 5.1224x104
=0.5122mm
According to theory of Solid Mechanics, the deflection is the maximum when the load is acted
on the centre of the shaft.
Hence the maximum deflection of the beam is only 0.5122mm which is negligible, and will not
cause failure to our prototype.
The other two shafts the the middle platform supports less mass as compared to the two shafts
computed, hence the deflection of the shaft at middle platform is surely less than 0.5122mm
Testing of Prototype:
We test run our prototype, and we compute the time needed for the platform to move full range
of displacement of 450mm

which controls the upper platform (x-axis). Both AC motors are connected directly to the 240V
power supply which is normally used by all electrical appliances.
In induction motor we give only one direct supply. It is very simple, from the name itself we can
understand that induction process is involved. When the supply is given to the stator winding,
flux will generate in the coil due to flow of current in the coil. Now the rotor winding is arranged
in such a way that it becomes short circuited in the rotor itself. The flux from the stator will cut
the coil in the rotor and since the rotor coils are short circuited, according to Faraday's law of
electromagnetic induction, current will start flowing in the coil of the rotor. When the current
will flow, another flux will get generated in the rotor. Now there will be two fluxes, one is stator
flux and another is rotor flux and the rotor flux will be lagging w.r.t to the stator flux. Due to
this, the rotor will feel a torque which will make the rotor to rotate in the direction of rotating
magnetic flux. So the speed of the rotor will be depending upon the ac supply and the speed can
be controlled by varying the input supply.
The first thing to do in an AC motor is to create a rotating field. 'Ordinary' AC from a 2 or 3 pin
socket is single phase AC. It has a single sinusoidal potential difference generated between only
two wires which is the active and neutral. Note that the Earth wire doesn't carry a current except
in the event of electrical faults. With single phase AC, one can produce a rotating field by
generating two currents that are out of phase using for example a capacitor.
Finally the both AC motors are connected to a switch box which is then directed to the plug. The
switch are there to control the direction of x and y axis. Switching on one of the button will
activate the direction of the particular platform. To change the direction, simple switch off back
the same button, wait for 3 seconds minimum and then switch it on back. Exactly same concept
is done to the other button on the switch box to control another platform.

Fabrication
The base and platforms are made of aluminum material. The material was made hollow not solid
as it would be lighter and less friction would act. The materials were ready made. The hollow
aluminum was sawed in 5 parts of 60cm length each. 4 parts was combined using rivet to create
the base of this prototype. The other part was made as the mid-platform. The upper platform is
also from the same material but with a smaller length of 100mm.
Shaft & Shaft holder
We used a long cylindrical aluminum shaft with a diameter of 10mm for the conveyor. We
sawed the shaft into 4 parts with length of 598cm and 486cm. Each length has 2 rods. The longer
shaft is used to slide the mid platform and the shorter shaft is used to slide the upper platform.
We need to ensure the mid-platform must not touch the base and upper platform. Thus the shaft
must be attached using a shaft holder at a higher certain length. The shaft holder is also
aluminum material and its hollow. We saw it and drilled 2 holes of 10mm and 5mm. the 10mm
hole is for attaching shaft in it and the 5mm hole is for attaching the shaft holed to the base with
a bolt and nut. During drilling process, we must ensure the rpm is slow to avoid the material to
tear as it is a soft material and its hollow. We need to avoid bending as well.

Pulley Supporter
The pulley supporter consists of three parts which is two mini shaft holders and one small shaft.
As there was no smaller shaft to support of pulley with the bore diameter of 5mm, we decided to
use an end thread bolt with diameter of 4mm. We used 4mm diameter instead of 5mm because
the need to avoid friction between pulley and the bolt as we need the pulley to rotate constantly.
The head of the bolt is sawed so we could insert the bolt between the 4mm holes drilled on the
side of the holder. The bolt with the thread part is fixed using two nuts. The supporter is then
fixed to the base and mid-platform using bolt and nut as well. A hole of 5mm is drilled on the
bottom surface of the supporter, base and mid-platform.
Single Bearing Holder
The function of single bearing holder is to support the mid-platform to the base shaft. The
materials used aluminum block. We saw the block using a saw machine in the workshop. Then
we used the milling machine to fine the surface. The both end grove like is cut using milling
machine as well, at 0.5mm per round. Once done, we drilled a small hole of 3mm on the top of
the housing. The function of it is to tighten the bearing using a screw. 20mm hole is drilled in the
between of the housing to fix the linear ball bearing in it. Finally, 5 mm hole is drilled on the
wings of the housing. This is to fix the housing to the mid-platform using a bolt and nut.

The function of double bearing holder is to support the upper-platform to the shaft at midplatform. The materials used aluminum block. We saw the block using a saw machine in the
workshop. Then we used the milling machine to fine the surface. The middle grove like is cut
using milling machine as well, at 0.5mm per round. Once done, we drilled a small hole of 3mm
on the both side of the housing. The function of it is to tighten the bearing using a screw. 20mm
hole is drilled on the both side of the housing to fix the linear ball bearing in it. Finally, 5 mm
hole is drilled on the top of the housing. This is to fix the housing to the upper-platform using a
bolt and nut.

Return on Investment
Return on Investment ROI can be defined as a performance measure used to evaluate the
efficiency of an investment or to compare the efficiency of a number of different investment. In
this project, we considered the return on investment for the manufacturer as well as for the
farmer. To calculate ROI, the benefit (return) of an investment is divided by the cost of the
investment where the result is expressed as a percentage or a ratio.
8.1) Return on Investment for Manufacturer
The overall (total) cost for one unit of the XY Slider which includes the manufacturing cost as
well as the component part and purchasing order is RM 2385.88. By taking 15% of profit from
the total cost, each unit of the machine is selling at the price of RM 2743.76. Therefore, the profit
that we obtain from each unit of the machine is RM 357.88. Basically, our business plan is to sell
24 units of the spraying machine per year with total investment of RM 100,000.00.
