With this project has been designed an induction electric stove powered by a photovoltaic storage system, which will make it self-sustainable without generating additional costsin the billing of electricity consumption. This solution is aimed at families in rural areas who still continue to use traditional fuels (wood, gasoline, straw, etc.) for the preparation of their food, which over time generate serious problems in people's health due to the CO2 that is produced. The project involves the implementation of a system of photovoltaic cells at the top of the houses of which would have connections to a set of batteries that would serve as the source to the operation of an electrical induction kitchen inside the house. The project demonstrates the results focused on the generation of energy capable of supplying the operation of the kitchen and for this the Helioscope simulator was used to ...

In this research, an innovative mechanical- electronic device has been developed for the efficient purification of carrots seeds, a critical process in agricultural production due to its impact on the quality and yield of future crops. The device uses mechanical and electronic principles to effectively separate impurities and unwanted seeds from carrots. Through detection and classification technologies together with mechanical elements of transport and separation, the quality of the resulting seeds is sought to improve, ensuring their purity. This development represents a significant advance in the automation of agricultural production, enabling farmers to benefit from higher quality seeds and higher productivity. This project shows how the integration of mechanical and electronic technologies can address the challenges in food production. In addition, the carrot seed cleaning machine o...

Abstract—The main objective of this research work is to design a semi-automatic hydraulic extruder machine to produce pastry bricks for Bricks Imperio. The aim is to achieve a production rate of 700 bricks per hour at a maximum cost of 12,000 dollars. For this purpose, an interpretative theoretical framework of similar products is carried out, and simulation software is used to test the theoretical concepts in real-world conditions. Following the methodology recommended by the German Engineering Association VDI 2221, a detailed list of requirements is drawn up, existing technology is analyzed, and mechanical, electrical, and hydraulic functions are designed. The design is verified with CAD software, and a techno- economic analysis is carried out. As a result, the successful design of the semi-automatic hydraulic extruder machine for the manufacture of pastry bricks is achieved, with a ...

Abstract—In South America, there are few companies that are interested in the creation of prostheses and this, together with the little technological progress, makes patients with transfemoral amputation unable to perform their work. For this reason, the objective of this research is to design a prototype of a lower limb prosthesis for transfemoral amputation that helps the patient's mobility recovery, preventing the wear of the functional knee where an ergonomic design was considered for the patient's comfort. On the other hand, muscular sensors (EMG) were used to detect the intension of the movement, and triaxial accelerometers that capture the movement disturbances in the three axes X, Y, Z. The mechanical design was submitted to the Von Mises stress analysis simulation, these tests were performed in the SolidWorks software and the electronic circuit design was simulated in the Prot...

Abstract—This study focused on the development of a coffee fermenting machine designed to enhance the organoleptic characteristics of the Catimor variety in the province of Chanchamayo, with the aim of increasing the value of Peruvian coffee in the international market. The implementation of this machine not only benefits local coffee farmers by improving their income, but also contributes to the consolidation of Peruvian coffee as one of the best in the world. The methodology adopted for the design process follows the guidelines of the German VDI 2221 standard, which allowed for an effective understanding of the steps required to complete the proposed design. Furthermore, the designed machine manages to reduce the fermentation time from approximately 24 to 12 hours, while improving the sensory properties of the coffee when tasted. The design approach was based on a thorough analysis o...

This research presents a comprehensive approach to the design, control, and structure of an innovative fermentation machine for the production of Tocosh from potato fermentation. In order to achieve this objective, a thorough analysis of the various crucial parameters involved in the fermentation process has been carried out. The main objective of the design proposal is the real-time monitoring of essential factors such as pH and temperature in the process. To achieve this, a control system has been designed that will allow precise and constant monitoring of the temperature and pH parameters, and monitoring of the water level was also carried out to improve the quality of the product. Furthermore, the structural analysis of the fermentation chamber is addressed in detail, using Inventor software for the creation of three- dimensional models of each component and for the generation of the...

Agriculture is one of the most important economic activities in Peru. Furthermore, the Peruvian mango is the most important fruit as an export product on the European market due to its good quality. Three varieties of mango are cultivated in Peru: Haden, Kent and Tommy Atkins, each of them presents different characteristics; however, the production of this fruit is affected because manual processes are still used for its production, which generates a delay in the process due to the inaccuracy of the labour. The present study aims to develop the simulation of an automated grading system for Peruvian mangoes based on computer vision. On the other hand, to establish the process development, the transfer learning principle was analysed and a flow diagram of the system was made. The simulation of the system environment was obtained through the Factory IO software, together with the image proc...

Lemon exports are of great influence in Peru, since there is a great demand from countries such as the USA, Belgium and Holland. For this reason, the agricultural sector is one of the essential factors for the economic development of the country, since it generates S/29,553 million annually throughout the national territory. On the other hand, Peru offers two types of lemons, for example: the Tahitian lemon and the subtle lemon; however, due to its characteristics, the Tahitian lemon is the one that is sent as an export product worldwide. Currently, the selection process of this fruit is done manually, since there are not enough industrial optimizations in its process. Therefore, the present study aims to carry out the simulation of an automated grading system for Tahitian lemon based on computer vision. The selection parameters for the image processing were established as the levels of ...

The arapaima, also known as paiche or pirarucu is one of the largest freshwater fish in the Amazon, in which its cultivation has been growing progressively due to consumer demand. This research presents the design of a real-time monitoring and control system of water parameters for paiche farming, which employs mechatronics concepts using the Vdl- 2206 methodology. The study controls and monitors the water's temperature, dissolved oxygen, and pH. Sensors obtain the values for each parameter, process them by a PLC, and project them on an HMI interface. The environment is programmed based on the information provided by FONDEPFS, which mentions that the water temperature for paiche cultivation must be between 26ºC to 31°C, the pH leve! between 6 and 8 UI, and dissolved oxygen with a value greater than or equal to 4 mg/L. In addition, the proposed mechatronic system aims to be a user-frien...
