Abstract

Mechatronics is an immerging branch in the present era which deals with mechanical systems, instrumentations and electronic systems. Hydraulic and Pneumatic systems are the vital elements of Mechatronics system. The actuation of hydraulic and pneumatic system can be done using a PLC or a microcontroller. The programming could be done in a ladder language, Functional block diagram or in embedded C. This paper shows the methodology for interfacing the MATLAB simulink with pneumatic system via microcontroller without any burden of programming. To fulfil this purpose, MATHWORKS has designed Arduino I/O packages, to communicate with Arduino controller without any programming language. The system consists of a relay unit, Arduino Microcontroller, Arduino IDE software, MATLAB simulink (Version 2012 or beyond) SMPS, Direction controlled solenoid operated valve, Double acting pneumatic cylinder and a USB cable. In a nut shell this methodology will not only decrease the load of programming but also will increase the interest of students towards Mechatronics and automation.
