By using Flowcode for PICmicro and Proteus, Drawing the proposed design (include the jig, joints adaptors, linear guides, couplings etc)

Title of Project assignment : Development of a Router for Slab Flattening Mill A router is required for the purpose of leveling the wood surface after a raw cut. The cut of wood that need to be trimmed are in the following dimensions thickness 10-12 cm width 40-60 cm length 60-120 cm Develop a router machine that has the automatic functions to level the surfaces of the wood plank. Requirements of the automatic router design 1) Have to use the router bit as shown in the figure (cutting diameter about 50mm and shank 1/2 inch) 2) Use high torque 12V DC motor for router bit rotation (cw & ccw) 3) Use two stepper motors (12V) for linear translation in xy directions 3) Allow manual adjustment on the cutting depth by user 2) Provide xy motion control for automation of the leveling process 3) Utilize sensor to limit the machining range (small size will be faster) 4) Use latch or pushbutton for machine operation (speed selection - router bit & xy translation, rotational direction of the router bit, start/stop, emergency stop, home positioning)
