ABSTRACT
Over the development time, technology weapons is growing as well as with the need for delivery of
goods. And of course one big company continuous with that company in the field of logistics. Thus the
course of goods shipped quite a lot of his own area and other areas. On the other hand the need for
accuracy in classifying the goods is relatively high.
Prototype conveyor transfer of goods in this case is a prototype for the move and classify goods. So
with the prototype conveyor, operating expenses at the company warehouse in terms of minimizing errors
can be realized.
Can constitute an innovation, innovation in question is the prototype conveyor transfer and
classification of goods. The services contained in the prototype of this conveyor is moving things and
classify items according to a predetermined color label. In this case, programming using C language with
the Arduino IDE application.
Keywords: Assembler, Arduino IDE, Conveyor classification of goods.

I. INTRODUCTION existence of this fairly complex activity that

1.1 Background
Warehousing is the storage of goods and
also production of obstruction of the company,
or production quantities and time frames which
are then distributed to the areas of interest on
request. The industrial sector, especially in the
field of warehousing is actually still able to do
development. So with a good development in
the field of warehouse management will make
the passage of traffic or activity warehousing
will be more efficient and effective, in this case
efficient in terms of cost and time effective
process that does not require a long time. In this
case the warehouse will be developed manifold
Warehouse Industrial Center, where the
definition of this warehouse is a warehouse that
has a function as a point in the distribution
system on the product received from various
suppliers and promptly delivered to many
customers.
There are some major events that occurred
in the warehouse, among other handling both
goods and the goods are damaged, the
calculation of the stock, packing, operational
supervision of workers, and also the movement
of goods from one location to another. With the
requires treatment that can be fairly
complicated, so that accuracy in warehouse
management is also quite high, and it takes the
employee is not small. The presence of
damaged or defective products that are also
made into low productivity, and a company
concerned will be negative in view of its
customers.
To reduce the errors that, then with the
holding of the technology was able to manage
some operations contained in the warehouse
include the movement of goods from trucks to
the warehouse and handling of calculating the
stocks held. The right is a prototype technology
that will classify goods conveyor.
II. METHOD OF RESEARCHERS
2.1 Place and Time of Research
The place of this research at Politeknik
Pos of Indonesia. The research was held on
October 2017 – January 2018.
2.2 Data Collection Techniques
The method used to collect data and
information and research are as follows:

1
 2

1. The collection of data by conducting a
literature study that is looking for books or
information related to this tool.
2. Held consultations and direction / guidance
of supervisor and other resources that can
be used as a reference and comparison in
designing this tool.
3. The literature review, done by studying the
theories of literature or books relating to the
introduction of the color types of goods, as well
as entering data into the local database using the
ethernet shield W5100 module. Furthermore,
the goods will go to the second ultrasonic
sensor.

2.3 Method Explanation 3.1.3 Calibration Sensor

For this research. There severals steps 3.1.3.1 Sensor Calibration Ultarasonics and
about the common activities that we used. DC motors
Here are the explanations about that steps:
1. Start is a condition in which the project has
been approved in terms of thema, title,
project structure and agreed timeline and
goals / goals to be achieved.
2. Create robot desain using fritzing.
3. We make structure of robot using plywood
with size 60 x 30 cm, paralon as a spinning
buffer and net as belt. to move the object by
the ultrasonic sensor , the movement of the
belt by the dc motor and color of the object
is regulated by the color sensor.
4. Create code using C language. The code is
written on an Arduino IDE that will be
imported into an arduino with USB.
III. ANALYSIS AND DESIGN
3.1. Analysis
3.1.1 Description of System To Be Built
In building a robotic conveyor transfer
of goods made a design. The design of the robot
is intended to allow the establishment of the
system may produce a robot that functions Picture 3.2 Sensor Calibration Ultrasonics and
efficiently and optimally. Process robotic DC

the robot will wait for orders from ultrasonic 2. Ultrasonic sensors will send a pulse, and
sensors first, if the sensor receives signals that will receive a bounce from it, so that the
no object is less than or equal to 10cm from the serial monitor will give the results of the
sensor, then conveyor runs. Goods will be specified range.
