1. INTRODUCTION:

Throughout the world bulk materials handling operations perform a key

function in a great number and variety of industries. While the nature of the
handling tasks and scale of operations vary from one floor to another and on
the international scene, from one country to another according to the industrial
and economic base, the relative costs of storing and transporting bulk
materials are, in the majority of cases, quite significant. It is important,
therefore, that handling systems be designed and operated with a view to
achieving maximum efficiency and reliability.
Bulk material transportation requirements have continued to press the belt
conveyor industry to carry higher tonnages some distances and more diverse
5
routes. In ordered keep up, significant technology advances have been
required in the field of system design, analysis and numerical simulation.

The application of traditional components in non- traditional

applications requiring horizontal curves and intermediate drives have
changed and expanded belt conveyor possibilities. Example of
complex conveying applications along with numerical tools require
insuring reliability and availability will be reviewed.

 WHAT IS DESIGN THINKING?

Design thinking is generally defined as an analytic and creative process

that engages a person in opportunities to experiment, create and
prototype models, gather feedback, and redesign. Several characteristics
(e.g., visualization, creativity) that a good design thinker should possess
have been identified from the literature.

Design Thinking is a methodology used by designers to solve complex

problems, and find desirable solutions for clients. Design Thinking draws
6
 upon logic, imagination, intuition, and systemic reasoning, to explore
possibilities of what could be, and to create desired outcomes that benefit
the end user (the customer). A design mind-set is not problem- focused,
its solution focused, and action oriented It involves both analysis and
imagination.

 IMPORTANCES FOR DESIGN THINKING:

 It can help you or your team surface unmet needs of the people you are
creating for.
 It reduces the risk associated with launching new ideas.
 It generates solutions that are revolutionary, not just incremental.
 It helps organizations learn faster.

• 3600 Conveyer belt with axial rotation is our domain of

Project.

2. EVALUATION OF IDEA

In our project we take a domain of 3600 CONVEYER BELT WITH

AXIAL ROTATION which includes:
1. AEIOU canvas

2. Empathy canvas

3. Ideation canvas

4. Product development canvas

• In the AEIOU canvas
A=Activities, E=Environment, I=Interactions, O=Objects, U=Users

 Activities are goal-directed sets of actions—paths towards things people want to

accomplish. Interactions are between a person and someone or something else;
they are the building blocks of activities.

AEIOU:-

Environment: Interaction: Activities:

Types of load Workers Manufacturing
Capacity Helpers Luggage transfer
Avoid Passengers Security check
Contamination Officers Load
management

8
 Objects: Users:
Improve security Industrial worker
Save space Airport employees
Lift materials Helpers
Stable operation Railway officer
Security guard

EMPATHY CANVAS:-

An Empathy Map is just one tool that can help you empathise and synthesise your
observations from the research phase, and draw out unexpected insights about your
user's needs. An Empathy Map allows us to sum up our learning from engagements
with people in the field of design research.
9
In Empathy canvas we briefly discussed about Users, Stakeholders, Activity and
story boarding.

USER: Stakeholder: Activity:

Industrial worker Industry/Factory Manufacturing
Airport employees Airport Luggage
Helpers Warehouse transfer
Railway officer Railways Security check
Security guard Load movement

10
IDEATION CANVAS:-

Ideation is the process where you generate ideas and solutions through sessions such
as Sketching, Prototyping, Brainstorming, Brain writing, Worst Possible Idea, and a
wealth of other ideation techniques. ... “Ideation is the mode of the design process in
which you concentrate on idea generation.

In Ideation canvas we briefly discussed about people, activity, situation /context

/location and props /possible solution.

People: Activities: Location: 

Helper Transport Industry
Security guard Load movement Airport
Industrial worker Operation process Railway
Airport employees Security check Warehouse
Passengers Manufacturing
Railway officers

11
PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT CANVAS:-
• In Product Development canvas we briefly discussed about purpose for the
road construction. Product experience can useful for decrease in pits, less
case of accident. In the product function to provide easy transportation, more
connectivity. And also includes product features, customer revalidation,
components, etc.

Purpose:
 Reduce the Risk of Damage to Materials
 Lift Materials at Various Heights
Product experience:
 loading and unloading of materials to be carried out easily
 save energy and time in delivering goods
People:
 Airport employees
 Helpers
 Railway officer
 Security guard
Product features:
 reduce investment
 monitor the running of the system
 avoid dust, contaminants
Components:
 wooden base
 clamp
 actuators
 Motor
 Circuit transformer
 Roller
Customer revalidation:
 Not portable
 Capacity limit

12
Reject, redesign, and retain:
 Reject- NO
 Retain
 Redesign – additional worker needed to select goods

13
PROTOTYPE CANVAS

MECHANISM
 One motor is connected with the shaft of the belt which will rotate
the conveyor belt.
 Two motors and two actuator will be used for making the up-down
mechanism.
 Two motor are connected with those actuator and when the motor
will rotate the actuator will move in the up-down position.
 One another motor is provided in the bottom of the base and the
shaft will be connect to the clamp which is connected with that
motor shaft with the help of brass coupling.
 So with the help of this we can rotate the conveyor belt at 360°.
 So with the help of this 360°rotated conveyor belt the material
handling can be done easily at desired place.

4. CONCLUSION:

For the design engineering – 2 (B) we have discussed about the 360 0 CONVEYER BELT
WITH AXIAL ROTATION. After taking a feedback from different people we had found
that it is the huge role of our project it provide best knowledge to the people
regarding how the work done in industries and how the heavy weight easily transfer.
We had included all their requirements in our project. And discuss on how to easily
solve the problem on the ground level.
