Design Review Notes: 11/22/10
- Heat warning on outside
- Use triclover fittings for access to ducting and outflow pipe.
- Reword customer requirement “weighted more heavily” issue regarding temperature requirements
- Wet/dry bulb temperature sensors on the air outflow
- Flow sensor
- Hand damper on exhaust recirculation
- Look into other materials for the air inlet piping
- Design to sit on a pallet that the pallet jack or forklift can use
- Add a leveling device or method
- Present LabVIEW Equipment
- Part Number Description
- FP-1601 Main Chassis
- FP-A0-200 8 channel current output
- FP-A1-110 16 bit analog input
- FP-TC-120 8 channel thermocouple input
- Begin pricing parts to develop a firm budget
- add viewing window, possibly to the lid or the top of the machine
- add a light for the inside of the machine
- add status lights to the outside of the machine
- add a manual baffle to adjust the amount of recirculated exhaust
- Try and integrate some kind of chain driven auger rotation system to eliminate the need for a second motor
- add in a humidifying spray nozzle to air inlet
- make the bottom plate be removable
- add racks to mount unloading bins on under the man-way
- add in skids and leveling system instead of casters.
- add in an E-STOP button to the exterior of the machine
- add flow sensors to the air intake
- have temperature sensors for the air intake, one in the grain bed, and one above the grain bed
- try and intergrate their current LABview system into ours. find out what it will take to get a copy of LABview without purchasing it.
