Jogging and inching

Dynamic braking

Speed control using phase control

Speed monitoring

Jogging and Inching and Braking:

Jogging refers to repeated starting and stopping of a motor in short bursts to
perform a particular movement such as moving a crane to a particular
location. The motor is operated on full power. Special Jogging circuits are
available.

Inching is similar to Jogging and the two are often confused with each other.
Inching involves short thrusts of motion at reduced power. The motor is made
to run at a reduced voltage.
Jogging should not be done more than 5 times in a minute. This is because
jogging can cause the motor to overheat. If Jogging is to be done frequently,
the starter of the motor should be derated.
Special Jogging Blocks are also available which prevent the motor from being
jogged more than 5 times an hour by logging the number of starts per hour.

Software
Android app development using High level Language

Eclipse IDE and ADT(Android Development Kit)

Integrated developed environment use any type of
language like C, C++, Java etc.

Android studio
GUI (Graphical User Interface)
GUI based android Application development
Android SDK (standard development kit)different
versions of android like Eclairs ,Jellybean, Kit Kat,
Marshmallow.

Software
Arduino and Others
Arduino v1.6 for audio programming
Mat lab for simulating power circuits
Eagle PCB for PCB Designing for TRIAC
Fritzing for Arduino and bread board connection

SOFTWARE USED:MIT APP INVENTOR

App Inventor for Android is a

open-source web application .
It allows newcomers computer
programming to create software
applications for the Android
operating system.
It uses a graphical interface, very
similar to Scratch and the
StarLogo TNG user interface.

MIT APP INVENTOR 2

It allows users to drag-and-drop visual objects to create an application

that can run on Android devices.

In creating App Inventor, Google drew upon significant prior research

in educational computing, as well as work done within Google on
online development environments
App Inventor and the projects on which it is based are informed by
constructionist learning theories.
It emphasizes that programming can be a vehicle for engaging
powerful ideas through active learning.
The MIT AI2 Companion app enables real-time debugging on
connected devices via bluetooth.

Motor control APP

More than 80% of Peoples are using Android
Smartphone in the World
Set Speed : 200 Rpm to Rated Speed
Firing angle of the TRIAC depends on Speed
Screen Touch Control For all Operations
It is Open Source Platform..
Android mobile acts as a transmitter and

the motor.

RESULT
The Android app is created with Bluetooth support, the input signals from the
android app are received by the Arduino board and displayed in the serial

port window.
The received signal are incorporated in a outputs pins of Arduino board using
codings and output from the pins are verified by provided LED, the signal

like Start, Stop, Inch, Jog, Braking stop, Emergency Stop and speed are
tested and verified in serial port window and also in output pins of Arduino
boards with LEDs.
In future the LED are replaced by Relay contacts for controlling the motor

APPLICATION:
Many industrial applications require adjustable speed and constant

speed for the improvement of quality product.

Intensity of light can also be controlled with a help of android

application
Motion drive applications like such as Conveyors, Blowers, Pumps as

well as many direct drive or geared application

Wood working machineries, Air compressors, high processors, water

pumps, vacuum pump and high torque application.

PROS:
Remote Operation is achieved by any smartphone with the
Android OS...
Technical expert controller is not required, easy GUI control.
Android and Arduino are open source system to develop any

programming code...
Bluetooth consumes less power so more preferable.
More useful for patient and disabled persons.
A smartphone can control multiple machines, So Control wiring

are reduced

FUTURE SCOPE:
GSM module adding with Bluetooth technology to make

long and short distance speed control of the induction

motor.
The Load Current also can able to monitor in Smartphone
By using temperature sensors to stop the motor at Over load

or over heated Condition and it can also able to Monitor

Variable

frequency speed
Introducing inverter drive

control

also

Possible

by

Multiple Motor control also possible in this smart phone

Application..

CONCLUSION:
The objective of the project has been achieved for

developing hardware and software for controlling the

speed of the induction motor using android
application.
The demand for wireless operating devices has been

increasing because it is more preferable than wired

devices.
