1) DC Motor
DC motor is an electric motor that runs on direct current (DC) electricity. DC
motors were used to run machinery, often eliminating the need for a local steam
engine or internal combustion engine. DC motors can operate directly from
rechargeable batteries, providing the motive power. Modern DC motors are
nearly always operated in conjunction with power electronic devices.
Sheet metal is simply metal formed into thin and flat pieces. It is one of the
fundamental forms used in metalworking, and can be cut and bent into a variety
of different shapes. Countless everyday objects are constructed of the material.
Thicknesses can vary significantly, although extremely thin thicknesses are
considered foil or leaf, and pieces thicker than 6 mm (0.25 in) are
considered plate. And holes were cut by blanking process in an organized
manner
3) Power supply
4) Square tube
Hollow square tube, which have a uniform cross-section with only one
enclosed void along their whole length in the shape of rectangles (including
squares), and which have a uniform wall thickness.
5) Hack saw
In normal use, a nut-and-bolt joint holds together because the bolt is under
a constant tensile stress called the preload. The preload pulls the nut
threads against the bolt threads, and the nut face against the bearing surface,
with a constant force, so that the nut cannot rotate without overcoming
the friction between these surfaces. If the joint is subjected tovibration,
however, the preload increases and decreases with each cycle of movement.
If the minimum preload during the vibration cycle is not enough to hold the nut
firmly in contact with the bolt and the bearing surface, then the nut is likely to
become loose.
7) Switches
DPDT (double pole, double throw): A DPDT switch routes two separate
circuits, connecting each of two inputs to one of two outputs. A DPDT switch
has six terminals: two for the inputs, two
for the A out puts, and two for the B
outputs.
8) Plywood
Plywood layers (called veneers) are glued together, with adjacent plies
having their wood grain at right angles to each other, to form acomposite
material. This alternation of the grain is called cross-graining and has several
important benefits: it reduces the tendency of wood to split when nailed at the
edges; it reduces expansion and shrinkage, providing improved dimensional
stability; and it makes the strength of the panel consistent across both
directions. There is usually an odd number of plies, so that the sheet is
balanced—this reduces warping. Because plywood is bonded with grains
running against one another and with an odd number of composite parts, it is
very hard to bend it perpendicular to the grain direction.

MATERIAL DESCRIPTION
DC MOTORS:
Basically, the motors can be categorized into two parts, AC and
DC. The basic principle of operation is almost same. In any electric
motor, the operation is based on simple electromagnetism. A current
carrying conductor generates a magnetic field; when this is placed in
an external magnetic field, it will experience a force proportional to
the current in the conductor, and the strength of the external
magnetic field. The internal configuration of a DC motor is designed
to harness the magnetic interaction between a current carrying
conductor and an external magnetic field to generate rotational
motion.
2. Shunt DC Motor:
The motor is called a "shunt" motor because the field is in parallel, or
"shunts" the armature. This type of motor runs practically constant
speed, regardless of the load. It is the type generally used in
commercial practice and is usually recommended where starting
conditions are not usually severs. Speed of the shunt-wound motors
may be regulated in two ways: first,
by inserting resistance in series with the
armature, thus decreasing speed: and
second, by inserting resistance in the
field circuit, the speed will vary with each change in load: in the latter,
the speed is practically constant for any setting of the controller. A
shunt wound motor has a high-resistance field winding connected in
parallel with the armature. It responds to increased load by trying to
maintain its speed and this leads to an increase in armature current.
This makes it unsuitable for widely-varying loads, which may lead to
overheating.
3. Series DC Motor:
The motor field windings for a series motor are in series with the
armature.
This type of motor speed varies automatically with the load,
increasing as the load decreases. Use
of series motor is generally limited
to case where a heavy power
demand is necessary to bring the
machine up to speed, as in the case of certain elevator and hoist
installations, for steel cars, etc. Series-wound motors should never be
used where the motor can be started without load, since they will race
to a dangerous degree. A series wound motor has a low-resistance
field winding connected in series with the armature. It responds to
increased load by slowing down and this reduces the armature
current and minimizes the risk of overheating.
4. Compound DC Motor:
A compounded DC motor is constructed so that it contains both a
shunt and a series field. This particular schematic shows a
cumulatively-compounded" DC motor because the shunt and series
fields are aiding one another combination of the shunt wound and
series wound types combines the characteristics of both.
Characteristics may be varied by varying the combination of the two
windings. These motors are generally used where severe starting
conditions are met and constant speed is
required at the same time.
Speed control:
Generally, the rotational speed of a DC
motor is proportional to the voltage applied to it, and the torque is
proportional to the current. Speed control can be achieved by variable
battery tapings, variable supply voltage, resistors or electronic
controls.
In a circuit known as a chopper, the average voltage applied to the
motor is varied by switching the supply voltage very rapidly. As the
"on" to "off" ratio is varied to alter the average applied voltage, the
speed of the motor varies. The percentage "on" time multiplied by the
supply voltage gives the average voltage applied to the motor.
Therefore, with a 100 V supply and a 25% "on" time, the average
voltage at the motor will be 25 V. During the "off" time, the armature's
inductance causes the current to continue through a diode called a
"fly back diode", in parallel with the motor. At this point in the cycle,
the supply current will be zero, and therefore the average motor
current will always be higher than the supply current unless the
percentage "on" time is 100%. At 100% "on" time, the supply and
motor current are equal. The rapid switching wastes less energy than
series resistors. This method is also called pulse-width modulation
(PWM) and is often controlled by a microprocessor. An output filter is
sometimes installed to smooth the average voltage applied to the
motor and reduce motor noise.
DC MOTOR DRIVER:
As the most of the PORT of MCU or any other controlling ICs
are not powerful enough to drive DC motors directly so we need
some kind of drivers. A very easy and safe is to use popular L293D
chips. It is a 16 PIN chip. The pin configuration is shown in the
diagram.
This chip is
designed
to control 2 DC
motors. There are
2 INPUT and 2 OUTPUT pins for each
motor. The diagram with proper connection is shown in the next
diagram. The ‘RA3’ and ‘RA2’ pins are used to control the motor one
and ‘RA0’ and ‘RA1’ pins are used to control motor B. Pin1 and Pin9
are enable pins. If these pins are not connected to +5V, then both the
drivers will remain deactivated until they are enabled. Whatever
power supply we provide at pin 8 and pin 16, this supply will go to
both motors. Hence we have to be careful about the rating of motors
while connecting the power supply to this IC using this IC.
The behavior of both motors are
similar are exactly similar. Here the
table describes the controlling method
of one motor; same is applicable for
other motor.
Signal at Signal at Rotation of Motor A
RA3 RA2
LOW LOW Stop
LOW HIGH clockwise
HIGH LOW Anticlockwise
High High Stop
From the above discussion it is clear that the motor can be stopped in
two ways, either by sending ground signal to both controlling lines, or
by sending high on both signal pins. If we have to stop the motor
immediately, then we should send high on both signal pins. This is
known as active braking, by which the motor is stopped instantly.
The basic idea behind controlling any DC motor is explained below;
this circuit arrangement is known as H Bridge because it looks like an
‘H’. The circuit diagram for H Bridge is shown. In general an H bridge
is a rather simple circuit, containing four switching elements with the
load at the center, in an H like configuration. The switching elements
(Q1….Q4), are usually bi-polar or FET transistors, in some high-
voltage applications IGBTs. In fact the similar arrangement is present
in our L293D IC. The operation of the circuit is very easily understood
by the following diagram.
The basic operating mode
of an H-bridge is fairly simple: if
Q2 and Q3 are turned on, the
left lead of the motor will be
connected to ground, while the
right lead is connected to the
power supply. Current starts
flowing through the motor which
energizes the motor in (let's say) the forward direction and the motor
shaft starts spinning. If Q1 and Q4 are turned on, the converse will
happen, the motor gets energized in the reverse direction, and the
shaft will start spinning in that way.
DPDT Switch
Contact bounce
When the power being switched is sufficiently large, the electron flow
across opening switch contacts is sufficient to ionize the air molecules across the
tiny gap between the contacts as the switch is opened, forming a gas plasma,
also known as an electric arc. The plasma is of low resistance and is able to
sustain power flow, even with the separation distance between the switch
contacts steadily increasing. The plasma is also very hot and is capable of
eroding the metal surfaces of the switch contacts. Electric current arcing causes
significant degradation of the contacts and also significant electromagnetic
interference (EMI), requiring the use of arc suppression methods. Where the
voltage is sufficiently high, an arc can also form as the switch is closed and the
contacts approach. If the voltage potential is sufficient to exceed the breakdown
voltage of the air separating the contacts, an arc forms which is sustained until
the switch closes completely and the switch surfaces make contact. In either
case, the standard method for minimizing arc formation and preventing contact
damage is to use a fast-moving switch mechanism, typically using a spring-
operated tipping-point mechanism to assure quick motion of switch contacts,
regardless of the speed at which the switch control is operated by the user.
Movement of the switch control lever applies tension to a spring until a tipping
point is reached, and the contacts suddenly snap open or closed as the spring
tension is released. As the power being switched increases, other methods are
used to minimize or prevent arc formation. A plasma is hot and will rise due to
convection air currents. The arc can be quenched with a series of nonconductive
blades spanning the distance between switch contacts, and as the arc rises its
length increases as it forms ridges rising into the spaces between the blades,
until the arc is too long to stay sustained and is extinguished. A puffer may be
used to blow a sudden high velocity burst of gas across the switch contacts,
which rapidly extends the length of the arc to extinguish it quickly. Extremely
large switches in excess of 100,000-watt capacity often have switch contacts
surrounded by something other than air to more rapidly extinguish the arc. For
example, the switch contacts may operate in a vacuum, immersed in mineral oil,
or in sulfur hexafluoride. In AC power service, the current periodically passes
through zero; this effect makes it harder to sustain an arc on opening.
Manufacturers may rate switches with lower voltage or current rating when used
in DC circuits.
Power switching
Inductive loads
Incandescent loads
Wetting current
Actuator
The moving part that applies the operating force to the contacts is called
the actuator, and may be a toggle or dolly, a rocker, a push-button or any type
of mechanical linkage (see photo).
Biased switches
Toggle switch
Special types
The mercury switch consists of a drop of mercury inside a glass bulb with
2 or more contacts. The two contacts pass through the glass, and are connected
by the mercury when the bulb is tilted to make the mercury roll on to them. This
type of switch performs much better than the ball tilt switch, as the liquid metal
connection is unaffected by dirt, debris and oxidation, it wets the contacts
ensuring a very low resistance bounce-free connection, and movement and
vibration do not produce a poor contact. These types can be used for precision
works. It can also be used where arcing is dangerous (such as in the presence of
explosive vapour) as the entire unit is sealed.
Knife switch
Knife switches consist of a flat metal blade, hinged at one end, with an
insulating handle for operation, and a fixed contact. When the switch is closed,
current flows through the hinged pivot and blade and through the fixed contact.
Such switches are usually not enclosed. The knife and contacts are typically
formed of copper, steel, or brass, depending on the application. Fixed contacts
may be backed up with a spring. Several parallel blades can be operated at the
same time by one handle. The parts may be mounted on an insulating base with
terminals for wiring, or may be directly bolted to an insulated switch board in a
large assembly. Since the electrical contacts are exposed, the switch is used
only where people cannot accidentally come in contact with the switch or where
the voltage is so low as to not present a hazard. Knife switches are made in
many sizes from miniature switches to large devices used to carry thousands of
amperes. In electrical transmission and distribution, gang-operated switches are
used in circuits up to the highest voltages. The disadvantages of the knife switch
are the slow opening speed and the proximity of the operator to exposed live
parts. Metal-enclosed safety disconnect switches are used for isolation of circuits
in industrial power distribution. Sometimes spring-loaded auxiliary blades are
fitted which momentarily carry the full current during opening, then quickly part to
rapidly extinguish the arc.
Footswitch
Reversing switch
A DPDT switch has six connections, but since polarity reversal is a very
common usage of DPDT switches, some variations of the DPDT switch are
internally wired specifically for polarity reversal. These crossover switches only
have four terminals rather than six. Two of the terminals are inputs and two are
outputs. When connected to a battery or other DC source, the 4-way switch
selects from either normal or reversed polarity. Such switches can also be used
as intermediate switches in a multiway switching system for control of lamps by
more than two switches.
Light switches
Electronic switches
Power supply
The type of stabilization used may be restricted to ensuring that the output
remains within certain limits under various load conditions, or it may also include
compensation for variations in its own supply source. The latter is much more
common today.
PLYWOOD
Foam board is a very strong, lightweight, and easily cut material used for
the mounting of photographic prints, as backing in picture framing, in 3D design,
and in painting. It is also in a material category referred to as "Paper-faced
Foam Board". It consists of three layers — an inner layer of polystyrene foam
clad with outer facing of either a white claycoated paper or brown kraft paper.
The surface of the regular board, like many other types of paper, is slightly
acidic. However for modern archival picture framing and art mounting purposes
it can be produced in a neutral, acid-free version with a buffered surface paper,
in a wide range of sizes and thicknesses. Foam-cored materials are also now
available with a cladding of solid (non-foamed) polystyrene and other rigid
plastic sheeting, some with a textured finish. Foamcore does not adhere well to
some glues, such as superglue, and certain types of paint. The foam tends to
melt away and dissolve. Some glue works well in casual settings, however, the
water in the glue can warp the fibers in the outer layers. Best results are
typically obtained from higher-end spray adhesives. A hot glue gun can be used
as a substitute, although the high viscosity of hot glues can affect finished
projects in the form of board warping, bubbles, or other unsightly blemishes.
Self-adhesive foam boards, intended for art and document mounting are also
available, though these can be very tricky to use properly; this is because the
glue sets very fast. It is considered cheaper to buy plain foam board and then
re-positionable spray mount adhesive. Foamcore is commonly used to produce
architectural models, prototype small objects and to produce patterns for
casting. Scenery for scale model displays, dioramas, and computer games are
often produced by hobbyists from foamcore. It's also often used by
photographers as a reflector, in the design industry to mount presentations of
new products, and in picture framing as a backing material; the latter use
includes some archival picture framing methods, which utilize the acid-free
versions of the material. Another use is with aero-modellers for building radio-
controlled aircraft.
Square tube
Hollow square tube, which have a uniform cross-section with only one
enclosed void along their whole length in the shape of rectangles (including
squares), and which have a uniform wall thickness.
Hack saw
The pitch of the teeth can be anywhere from fourteen to thirty-two teeth
per inch (tpi) for a hand blade, with as few as three tpi for a large power hacksaw
blade. The blade chosen is based on the thickness of the material being cut, with
a minimum of three teeth in the material. As hacksaw teeth are so small, they are
set in a "wave" set. As for other saws they are set from side to side to provide a
kerf or clearance when sawing, but the set of a hacksaw changes gradually from
tooth to tooth in a smooth curve, rather than alternate teeth set left and right.
For several decades now, hacksaw blades have used high speed steel for
their teeth, giving greatly improved cutting and tooth life. These blades were first
available in the 'All-hard' form which cut accurately but were extremely brittle.
This limited their practical use to benchwork on a workpiece that was firmly
clamped in a vice. A softer form of high speed steel blade was also available,
which wore well and resisted breakage, but was less stiff and so less accurate for
precise sawing. Since the 1980s, bi-metal blades have been used to give the
advantages of both forms, without risk of breakage. A strip of high speed steel
along the tooth edge is electron beam welded to a softer spine. As the price of
these has dropped to be comparable with the older blades, their use is now
almost universal.
12 Inch Blade:
Mounting Hole diameter: 9/64 to 5/32 inch / 3.5 to 4 mm (not tightly controlled)
Blade Thickness: 0.020 to 0.027 inches / 0.5 to 0.70 mm (varies with tooth pitch
and other factors)
The kerf produced by the blades is somewhat wider than the blade
thickness due to the set of the teeth. It commonly varies between 0.030 and
0.063 inches / 0.75 and 1.6 mm depending on the pitch and set of the teeth.
The 10 inch blade is also fairly common and all the above dimensions
apply except for the following:
A panel hacksaw eliminates the frame, so that the saw can cut into panels of
sheet metal without the length of cut being restricted by the frame.
Junior hacksaws are the small variant, while larger mechanical hacksaws are
used to cut working pieces from bulk metal.
While stationary electric hacksaws are reasonably uncommon they are still
produced but saws powered by a stationary engines have gone out of fashion.
The reason for using one is that they provide a cleaner cut than an angle grinder
or other types of saw. Large, power hacksaws are sometimes used in place of a
bandsaw for cutting metal stock to length.
Nut
A nut is a type of fastener with a threaded hole. Nuts are almost always
used opposite a mating bolt to fasten a stack of parts together. The two partners
are kept together by a combination of their threads' friction, a slight stretch of the
bolt, and compression of the parts. In applications where vibration or rotation
may work a nut loose, various locking mechanisms may be employed:
Adhesives, safety pins or lockwire, nylon inserts, or slightly oval-shaped threads.
The most common shape is hexagonal, for similar reasons as the bolt head - 6
sides give a good granularity of angles for a tool to approach from (good in tight
spots), but more (and smaller) corners would be vulnerable to being rounded off.
Other specialized shapes exist for certain needs, such as wing nuts for finger
adjustment and captive nuts for inaccessible areas.
Nuts are graded with strength ratings compatible with their respective
bolts; for example, an ISO property class 10 nut will be able to support the bolt
proof strength load of an ISO property class 10.9 bolt without stripping. Likewise,
an SAE class 5 nut can support the proof load of an SAE class 5 bolt, and so on.
A wide variety of nuts exists, from household hardware versions to specialized
industry-specific designs that are engineered to meet various technical
standards.
Types
• Acorn nut (cap nut)
• Barrel nut
• Cage nut
• Clip-on nut (J-nut or U-nut)
• Coupling nut
• Cross dowel
• Flange nut (collar nut)
• Insert nut
• Sex bolt
• Slotted nut

• Sleeve nut
• Square nut
• Staked/welded nut (for plastic)
• Swage nut
• T-nut
• T-slot nut (T-groove) nut
• Weld nut
• Well nut
• Wing nut
Locknuts
• Castellated nut
• Distorted thread locknut
o Centerlock nut
o Elliptical offset locknut
o Toplock nut
• Interfering thread nut
o Tapered thread nut
• Jam nut
• Jet nut (K-nut)
• Keps nut (K-nut or washer nut) with a star-type lock washer
• Nyloc plate nut
• Polymer insert nut (Nyloc)
• Serrated face nut
• Serrated flange nut
• Speed nut (Sheet metal nut or Tinnerman nut)
• Split beam nut
In normal use, a nut-and-bolt joint holds together because the bolt is under
a constant tensile stress called the preload. The preload pulls the nut threads
against the bolt threads, and the nut face against the bearing surface, with a
constant force, so that the nut cannot rotate without overcoming the friction
between these surfaces. If the joint is subjected to vibration, however, the
preload increases and decreases with each cycle of movement. If the minimum
preload during the vibration cycle is not enough to hold the nut firmly in contact
with the bolt and the bearing surface, then the nut is likely to become loose.
