The AX901 process.
AX901 is a sorting system that sorts bricks by color.
The sorting process consists of five functions.
Function one: Reset.
The rotation sensors in the three motors are reset.
Function two: Load
Large motor A tilts the loader assembly lengthwise whereby the bricks slide towards color sensor A.
Function three: Detect
Color sensor A in color mode detects the color of the brick.
Control unit A uses Wi-Fi to request the database for the angle to the container corresponding to the color of the brick.
The application running on the control unit calculates how many degrees the chute assembly must rotate
based on the chute’s current position and the angle from the database.
Function four: Rotate.
Large motor B rotates the chute assembly which directs the brick to the container.
Function five: Slide
Medium motor A tilts the loader widthwise
whereby the brick slides down the chute and into the container.
The sorting system is now ready to load, rotate, and tilt in order to sort the next brick.
