Design and Build Pneumatic Trainer for Detecting Ferrous Metal (FE)

Abstract

Ferrous metal (Fe) detection pneumatic trainers are designed to provide a practical understanding of pneumatic systems used in industry, particularly in automation processes involving metal detection sensors. The main goal of the project is to design and build a trainer that can demonstrate the working principle of a pneumatic system combined with a Fe metal detection sensor. The methods used include mechanical and electrical design, control programming, and system functionality testing. The results of this design show that the trainer can detect Fe metal with high accuracy and provide the appropriate pneumatic response. This trainer can be used as a learning medium to understand the application of sensors in industrial automation, as well as improve the practical skills of students or technicians in the field of mechatronics and control systems.
