Project 2 - Continuity testers

Group 3 have been in charge of programming the `Doppelmagazin´ which with the use of sensors delivers the lid or the box to the robot when they are needed. 

Group 4 has been given the task of checking the continuity tester for any faults. They are using a PLC to program a robot to test the product.

Group 5 have been assigned to the programing of the robotic arm. This moves the parts of the continuity tester around the production line and assembles the final product.

Group 6 have been designing the program that engraves the logo VTP 2001 into perspex tops fitted onto the continuity testers.

Group 7 has been given the task to design and make the circuit boards that will go inside the boxes which group 3 are making. The function of the continuity testers is to see whether there are any faults with the connections in any electrical circuit. It is a simple design using an LED as a signal, but we find that it is also very effective.
