چکیده
A project work was done within the time frame of January to December 2004 in Islamic University of Technology, Gazipur, Bangladesh. The main objective of this work is to design a Flexible Material Handling System (FMS) that can automatically synchronize its speed as per requirement. The system is designed for two types of conveyor system where the speed of the horizontal conveyor belt will be related to the production rate and the speed of the vertical Bucket elevator will be synchronized. A very cheap electrical controller has been designed to synchronize the speed of the bucket elevator with the help of a stepper motor.
