Recently, the progress of industrialization has been taken concern of material handling automation. So for, the conveyor belt has been popular for material handling. However, this system has many disadvantages such as the space, cost, etc. In this paper, a new navigation algorithm using fuzzy is introduced. The mobile robot follows a line installed on the roads. These informations are inputted with three approximate sensors. These obtained informations are analyzed with fuzzy control technique fur autonomous steering. Therefore, unlike existing systems, high reliability is guaranteed under bad environment conditions. The installation and maintenance of a line is easily made at lower cost. This developed mobile robot can be applied to material handling automation in manufacturing system, hospital, inter-office document del ivory.

For the robot manipulator in performing precision task, it is indispensable that the robot utilize the various sensors for intelligence. This paper presents the development and implementation of an integrated control system for the control of robotic manipulator, a feeder, a conveyor belt system, force/torque sensor system, and a photo sensor system. Micro controller board was constructed for hierarchical control of the system. To set up the program interactively, a user can make use of the software which includes the full-down menu and a dialog box. The user can make progress the program quickly and easily by a mouse. The related software was written in C and assembly languages.

The distribution and abundance of Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba), particularly in the South Atlantic, has traditionally been viewed as primarily determined by the flow of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current. Krill are viewed as being particles on a conveyor belt that carries them around the Antarctic continent resulting in a single circumpolar population. The evidence to support this viewpoint is largely circumstantial and there is very little direct evidence available of krill being moved by the currents-krill flux. There is also considerable biological and physical evidence which suggests that other factors may play a dominant role in the life history and distribution of krill. This review examines the evidence fur krill flux and also examines evidence that does not accord with this theory. The management implications of assuming krill flux are outlined and some lines for future research are suggested.

Egg grading machine is used in poultry raising industry to classify eggs by their weight and to pack up them. Packer holder mechanism is a main part of the egg grading machine, of which role is to take eggs fallen from conveyor belt, and afterward to transfer eggs vertically to mold tray. The vertical motion of packer holder is usually driven by slider-crank mechanism or cam. This paper describes development of the cam in packer holder based on kinematic analysis of packer holder mechanism and measurement of acceleration and noise of the cam to verify performance of it. Several cams that are designed and manufactured by the author of this paper according to different design specification are compared to determine the best solution for egg transfer in the packer holder mechanism.

The sampling plan CSP-1 for continuous production was first proposed by Dodge in 1943. Continuous production refers to products which are flowing past the inspection station such as products moving on a conveyor belt. One important measure of the effectiveness of a CSP is the average outgoing quality(AOQ). A concept for a short run of production length time, denoted by AOQ(t), is provided. The assumption of a s-independence in CSP-1 is unrealistic. It is possible to relax the assumption of a s-independence. The need for Markov model in a continuous production process can be discussed in this paper. The Markov and renewal theory are used to describe the property of AOQ in CSP-1.

제철소에서의 원료 운송 작업은, 선박에 선적된 원료를 하역하여 야드에 적치한 후, 제반 원료 소요공장까지의 벨트 컨베이어를 통한 원료 수송 작업을 의미한다. 본 연구에서는 원료 운송과 관련한 선박 접안, 원료 하역 및 벨트 컨베이어 수송 일정 계획을 효과적으로 수립하기 위하여 이단계 계획적 구조를 이용한 일정계획 휴리스틱을 개발하고 이를 구현하기 위한 전문가 시스템을 개발하였다. 이단계 계층적 구조는 상위 단계의 Scheduler 와 하위 단계의 복수개의 Dispatcher 로 구성되어 있다. 하위 단계의 Dispatcher는 주어진 제약조건하에서 단위 문제를 해결하고 이를 상위 단계의 Scheduler에게 보고하게 된다. 상위 단계의 Scheduler 는 전체적인 문제 해결의 우선 순위 결정 및 Dispatcher 간의 상층을 해결하는 역할을 맡게 된다. 이러한 계층적 구조를 이용한 분산처리를 통해 문제의 복잡성을 줄이고, 시스템 설계의 모듈화 및 유연성있는 시스템 구축이 가능하게 되었다. 본 시스템은 실시간 전문가 시스템 도구인 G2를 이용하여 SUN Workstation에서 개발되었다.

Decrease in the cocoon production of Japan is drastic because of low price of cocoon, scarcity of successors and so on. To tide over the difficulty, the automation system in the sericulture was discussed and some trials have been conducted by the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries of Japan. The attempts are based on a low cost artificial diet which does not rely on mulberry leaves. Automatic machines developed until now are a rearing machine constituted with repeated belt conveyor, an reformation type of former rearing machine "Bombyx" and a mounting machine. Running parallel with them, utilization of 20-hydroxyecdysone extracted from a plant to the mounting was also studied to use their machines efficiently in the fields. In conclusion, 10 tons of law cocoon will come to be produced by two persons labor. At present, an automatic rearing system on low cost artificial diet has been developing for the future sericulture.

This paper presents a network-based automation system for the detection of metallic objects in food and livestock. A metal detector is a core equipment used for the inspection required by HACCP. Since the existing metal detectors are manufactured as a single-body equipment, it is difficult to take into account various user requirements for the system. In order to overcome the drawback, this study presents a network-based automation system for metal detector utilizing an industrial fieldbus and modular components. The proposed system can effectively consider the various customer requirements and control schemes. The proposed system can also achieve the improvement in speed and success rate of detecting metallic objects. The effectiveness of the proposed system is demonstrated through a various experiments.
