We have the task of designing and building a Cartesian robot for the trimming of bakelite, which will feature 3 axes X, Y, Z for its movements in the plane. I will manipulated from a computer.

During this first part is designed and tested the prototype arming to meet the requirements of teachers (Cartesian Robot). It worked equally for the preparation of the document and the presentation of the development of activities during this period.

My participation was to help in the different activities. From start to contribute ideas on the design of the prototype as well as special materials which need to be most effective when performing orderly.

So far it has been decided the design, materials, sizes and parts of our project. In addition to our control system will work with the program c ++ builder, and will be connected to the prototype through parallel port.

Team members were heavily engaged in different tasks developed to meet agreed deadlines.

In the construction of the prototype work was to assemble the machine and create their parts with steel tubular aluminium and rods threaded through the construction helped weld the parts that would the robot X, Y, Z axes and the placement of the engines and the test with them had several problems with the Assembly which were solved with adjustments to the engine and also inquired about the circuit of power for motors of which We chose the transistors they handled a better voltage and there is no risk in addition to using a power source to feed movement of the motors on each axle since it provides the voltage necessary to work at their maximum capacity

Control use a program in c ++ builder that converts the coordinates via a code in pulses to create a figure and send it to the arduino that read the pulses and converts them in turns of the engines which arrive at the circuit and sends them directly to the engines to rotate until the marked coordinate, in conclusion thanks to our teamwork could learn how to control engines manufacture the parts of all the robot and program it to base help us also to solve the problems that were occurring throughout the semester and also working with us and check our hypothesis that we set at the beginning of the semester was the right
