|
|
SILKSCREEN
|
Screen printing is a printing
system in a given object. Where paint is used.
|
|
FRAME
|
The frame is a piece of wood or
metal used to strain or stretch the mesh, using staples to tighten it around
the frame.
|
|
MESH
|
The mesh is very fine and resistant synthetic fabric stretched and
attached to the frame allows passage silkscreen painting.
|
|
EMULSION
|
The emulsion obtained is a
liquid of two chemicals, sericrom and dichromate, which are used for printing
on fabric.
|
|
Squeegee
|
The squeegee is a tool used to
expand the ink on the screen for printing.
|
|
silkscreen inks
|
It is a special ink for
printing on the net. Depending on the type of material do you want to print,
depend on the use of appropriate ink.
|
|
Octopus silkscreen
|
Is a rotating mechanical
element which can be placed several meshes. Its purpose is to have the
largest number of meshes for mass production of the items you want to print
out.
|
|
Piston
|
It is a mechanical device whose
function is to provide a force to move or perform other device. The force
causing the actuator comes from a gas pressure (typically air). Currently
there are basically two types of linear and rotary actuators.
|
|
DC Motor
|
It is a machine that converts
electrical energy into mechanical, causing a rotary motion, by the action of
the magnetic field.
|
|
Bearing
|
It is a mechanical device that
reduces friction between a shaft and the parts connected to it through
rolling, which serves as support and facilitates displacement.
|
|
Pressure regultor.
|
The
pressure regulators are flow control devices designed to maintain a constant
pressure. This must be able to maintain pressure, unaffected by changes in
process operating conditions for which they work.
|
|
Pneumatic solenoid.
DS18B20 temperature sensor.
|
A solenoid valve is an electromechanical valve,
designed to control the passage of a fluid conduit or pipe.
Temperature sensors are devices which transform
temperature changes into changes in electrical signals that are processed by
electrical or electronic equipment.
|
|
Inductive proximity
sensor.
|
These
sensors incorporate an electromagnetic coil which is used to detect the
presence of a metallic object driver. This type of sensor ignores
non-metallic objects.
|
|
Relays.
|
It is
an electromechanical device. Functions as a controlled by an electric circuit
in which, by means of a coil and a magnet, a set of one or more contacts for
opening or closing other independent circuits switch is actuated.
|
|
Protoboard.
|
The protoboard is a tool used
for testing circuits and knowing if they work.
|
|
Resistances.
|
It’s a device that cause an
opposition to the electrons that flow in a circuit.
|
|
Gear.
|
The gear is used in a mechanism
for transmitting the power from one component to another. The form of a gear
like a toothed wheel.
|
|
Transistor.
|
It’s a little semiconductor
device used as an electronic switch that works with an electric pulse.
|
|
Arduino.
|
It’s a free hardware platform,
based in a plaque with a microcontroller, designed to facilitate the use of
electronic in multidisciplinary proyects.
|
|
Screwdriver.
|
Instrument used to loosen and
adjust crews.
|
|
Crews.
|
A piece of cylindrical metal
with a spiral around him. Its used to fasten two pieces of something
|
|
Bakelite.
|
It is a tool made of copper in
which we can print circuits and use them by removing the useless copper with
a ferric acid.
|
|
Ferric
acid.
|
It’s a chemical liquid used as
a bakelite cleaner that only leaves the marked lines and “Eat” the rest of
the copper in the bakelite.
|
|
Multimeter.
|
This device is used to measure
electrical properties, like voltage, current and resistance principally.
