Mini Project

This document outlines a TY Mini Project proposal to develop a portable CNC machine for STEM educational toys. The objectives are to build a low-cost portable CNC to help students develop analytical, sensory and motor skills from a young age. The methodology will require CAD modeling, additive manufacturing techniques, and programming the CNC machine. Mathematical transformations will be used to model the 3-axis movement. The results hoped for include time savings, consistency, customization, precision, versatility and affordability of the portable CNC. The action plan outlines activities from January 2023 to April 2023 to complete literature review, modeling, prototyping, testing and reporting.

1. Introduction

STEM(science, technology, engineering, mathematics) teaching aids toys, with emphasis


on low cost portable CNC(computer numeric control) machine for product design and
prototyping using microprocessors.
Developing tech based toys for students below 18-0yrs of age would have scope for
multiple analytical, sensory and motor skills for development
2. Problem Statement

Aim to build a portable CNC machine for STEM educational toys for procuring and
developing creative skills and proactive leaning from early age.

I’ve managed to form a collaboration with a EDU TECH firm for market assistance and
analysis a healthy competitors in product research, innovation and development.
3. Objective & Scope of mini project

The global economy is changing. Current jobs are disappearing due to automation
and new jobs are emerging every day as a result of technological advances. The
future of manufacturing depends on the exposure of our educational facilities to CNC
technologies used in industrial applications today. There is no better way to get
student engagement with something they are interested in while learning skills that
will prepare them for real-world applications and employment.
CNC Routers are not found in schools and education facilities across the country. I’ll
offer free consultation on your requirements and help tailor a package for you with
installation, maintenance, and add-on services
4. Literature Review

The application of STEM learning as a preventive approach is expected to help students


interpret learning, especially science, so that it influences to improving learning quality.
This is expected to be able to answer the challenge of creating a high-quality generation
that focuses on the integration of science, technology, engineering and mathematics.
Portable CNC creates gateway of opportunities for students to manufacture their ideas
readily once completed with CAD. STEM integration is related to contextual issues that
support each other in science learning that is related to life. In this study, a review was
carried out on research articles of STEM learning application which included four
disciplines, namely science, technology, engineering, and mathematics, involving pupils
in the investigation process that resulted in understanding and explanation supported
by relevant evidence.
5. Methodology

This project will require intricate knowledge of CAD modelling and additive
manufacturing techniques for developing a portable CNC. After software model is
finalized, modelling it practically with various workshop practices, later with 3axis CNC,
software for launching G-codes for CNC to work should be uploaded into firmware.
This project requires various mechanical, electronics and software skills for perfect
execution.
5. Mathematical Work

The kinematic model of a 3-axis CNC machine can be represented using a set of
transformation matrices. These matrices can be used to describe the position and orientation
of the cutting tool relative to the machine's coordinate system.

Assuming a standard Cartesian coordinate system (X,Y,Z), the transformation matrices for
each axis can be represented as follows:

X-axis: T_x = [1 0 0 d_x; 0 cos(theta_x) -sin(theta_x) 0; 0 sin(theta_x) cos(theta_x) 0; 0 0 0 1]

Y-axis: T_y = [cos(theta_y) 0 sin(theta_y) 0; 0 1 0 d_y; -sin(theta_y) 0 cos(theta_y) 0; 0 0 0 1]

Z-axis: T_z = [cos(theta_z) -sin(theta_z) 0 0; sin(theta_z) cos(theta_z) 0 0; 0 0 1 d_z; 0 0 0 1]

where d_x, d_y, and d_z are the linear displacements along the X, Y, and Z axes, respectively,
and theta_x, theta_y, and theta_z are the rotations around the X, Y, and Z axes, respectively.
