In gear manufacturing, undercutting refers to the removal of material from the base of the gear tooth. This results in a groove or recess at the bottom of the tooth, giving it a concave shape. Undercutting is typically done to prevent interference between adjacent teeth, especially in gears with small numbers of teeth or high-pressure… Continue reading UNDER CUTTING IN GEAR

Gas Sensor
Gas sensors are devices that detect the presence of various gases in the environment and convert this information into an electrical signal. These sensors are used in a wide range of applications, including industrial safety, environmental monitoring, and indoor air quality control. Here are some key points about gas sensors: Working Principle: Gas Detection Mechanisms:… Continue reading Gas Sensor
Raindrop Sensor
A raindrop sensor, also known as a rain sensor or rain detector, is a device used to detect rainfall or the presence of water droplets. It is commonly used in weather monitoring systems, automatic irrigation systems, and rainwater harvesting systems. Here’s an overview of how raindrop sensors work and their applications: Working Principle: Raindrop sensors… Continue reading Raindrop Sensor
Color Sensor
A color sensor is a type of sensor that can detect and differentiate between different colors or wavelengths of light. These sensors are used in various applications where color recognition or detection is required. Here are some key points about color sensors: Working Principle: Spectral Sensing: Color sensors work based on the principle of spectral… Continue reading Color Sensor
Hall Effect Sensor
A Hall effect sensor is a transducer that measures the magnetic field around it. It works based on the Hall effect, which is the production of a voltage difference (the Hall voltage) across an electrical conductor, transverse to an electric current in the conductor and a magnetic field perpendicular to the current. Here are some… Continue reading Hall Effect Sensor
UNIPOLAR AND BIPOLAR STEPPER MOTOR COMPARISON
Unipolar and bipolar stepper motors are two common types of stepper motors used in various applications. Here’s a comparison between unipolar and bipolar stepper motors: Unipolar Stepper Motors: Coil Arrangement: Unipolar stepper motors have two windings per phase, with the center tap of each winding connected to a common wire. They typically have six or… Continue reading UNIPOLAR AND BIPOLAR STEPPER MOTOR COMPARISON
RELAY
A relay is an electromechanical switch that is operated by an electric current to control the flow of electricity in a circuit. Relays consist of a coil and one or more sets of contacts. When the coil is energized, it creates a magnetic field that causes the contacts to close or open, allowing or interrupting… Continue reading RELAY
PIR SENSOR
A PIR (Passive Infrared) sensor is a type of electronic sensor that detects motion by measuring changes in the infrared levels emitted by objects in its field of view. Here’s an explanation of its principle and how it works: Principle of Operation: Infrared Radiation: All objects with a temperature above absolute zero emit infrared radiation.… Continue reading PIR SENSOR
LDR
An LDR or light dependent resistor is also known as photo resistor, photocell, photoconductor. It is a one type of resistor whose resistance varies depending on the amount of light falling on its surface. When the light falls on the resistor, then the resistance changes. These resistors are often used in many circuits where it is required to sense the presence of light. These resistors have a… Continue reading LDR
MIRROR OPERATION IN FUSION 360
In Fusion 360, creating a mirror operation involves duplicating an object or feature across a specified plane. Here are the general steps to perform a mirror operation in Fusion 360: For Bodies or Components: Open Your Design: Open the design in which you want to perform the mirror operation. Activate the “Mirror” Command: In the… Continue reading MIRROR OPERATION IN FUSION 360
