| Summary: | The project is known as Design, Analysis and Fabrication of Automated Shirt Folder. It was designed to meet the needs of shirt folding for college students, housewives or anyone who has trouble folding shirt. Many problems usually faced by working women who is unable to manage time for house-hold chores. Undeniably, lots of college or university students are annoyed by spending time folding shirt based on the questionnaires feedback from the respondents. As a result, clothes that have been washed will fall apart in certain rooms, thereby reducing the aesthetic value of a home. This will cause major stress as they realize their unfolded shirt at home. In addition, most of shirt folding machine in market are either for industry use or too expensive. Due to the problems, researcher’s is trying to build a portable automatic shirt folding machine at a reasonable cost and convenience to serve most people. Designing Fabrication of Automated Shirt Folder is the right solution to make folding shirt easier and more time efficient. The design process includes research in background information and relevant standards through google form survey, focus on specification, concept generation and selection, and engineering analysis. The design and its configuration was built based on calculations and simulations in Solidworks. In this propose system, a DC motor are attached to the folding motion and rotates according to a program which uses microcontroller that controls the overall motion of the folding. The design uses several combinations of gears and cranks to flip the boards and thus fold the shirts that is put on the platform by the user. It really saves energy, time and money. As such, Automated Shirt Folder Machine was expected to be prepared with low prices which affordable to all generations and friendly product to customer. |
