FABRICATION OF AUTOMATIC LORRY TRAILOR LIFTER

SYNOPSIS

Objective
To deliver the material from the storing point to the particular place.
To develop the automation in material handling system.
To promote the convenient method of discharging the materials on
three directional side for sand ,stone, wood etc .
Project Background
In the present situation , the

transportation with discharging

of

materials like sand through the automotive system is on one side only i.e
rear side of vehicle. This project is designed to discharge the materials on
any one of the three sides ( i.e right ,left and rear side )for our convenient ..
ABSTRACT;
In our project FABRICATION OF AUTOMATIC LORRY TRAILOR
LIFTER we made trailer to transport the components

as a prototype for

assisting in the material handling system. Microcontroller unit controls the

four 5/2 way DC valves to lift the trailer plate for discharging the job. The
controller drives the signal to the 5/2 way solenoid valve which actuate the
double acting cylinder which hold and lift the component and transfer to
therequired side place. The operating pressure required for this system is 5

to 6 bar.The maintenance required for this system is less than the other
systems.
PROJECT ELEMENTS;
Micro Controller based control system
Programming software
Power Supply 12VDC
Air cylinder ( 4nos)
5/2 way solenoid operated directional control valve (4nos)

M.S, fabricated base stand with TRAILOR PLATE

ADVANTAGES;
1.Discharging the materials simply lifting trailer on required side.
2.easy to operate
3. reduce the labour cost.
