abstract
- In this paper it is presented an educational experiment, that consists of a mechatronic system applied to demonstrate concepts such as prototyping and control. The described mechatronic system is based on a conveyor belt, that was integrated with a manipulator, being physical devices commonly used in the industry. The conveyor Belt was prototyped from scratch, using 3d print technology. Its movement is based on the closed loop control of a DC Motor, based on a PID. The Conveyor Belt was integrated with a Braccio Manipulator from Arduino, using the ZMQ communication library, which is a high-performance asynchronous messaging library.
