Mechatronic design of a modular artificial honeycomb for the automatic extraction of honey from Apis Melliferas bees in Huancayo, Peru

Abstract This research develops the mechatronic design of an artificial honeycomb for Apis Melliferas bees, which allows automatic extraction honey in farms province Huancayo, Peru, since Junin produces 208.26 tons annually with traditional and obsolete techniques. was executed under German VDI 2221 standard contemplates mechanical, electronic control system, are dimensioned according to theories laws of: distortion energy, polynomial 3 4 5, involute curve gears, Kirchhoff, Ohm, on-off control, among others. It possible design, Inventor, structure whose cells have a 19° slope gravity flow, gear-rack-gear system transmission torque from servomotor cam shaft move grid, opens flow duct; also, it Proteus, made up by Arduino UNO, 2. 5 Kg-cm rotation restricted 110° 15mm force sensor; finally, actuator monitoring weight logic were programmed IDE. According simulations performed, is technologically feasible.
