PAKANIKAN

Pakanikan is fish feeder with scheduling according to weight of the feed and monitored using Blynk App. You can set the schedule and the weight each feeding time on the Blynk App. This project was made by me and my junior "Gyan Noval Havillah". Pakanikan frame was made using aluminium square hollow 1 inch.

Schematic

Because this is a project for undergraduate, so i didn't make the schematic. So you may look for pins used at the arduino file programs (.ino files). You can see the diagram below for raw connection :

Mechanism

Auger Mechanism

Image of auger mechanism for exact feeding based on weight.

Feed Spreader Mechanism

The motor stands on Loadcell, so the motor will rotate only if the weight of the feed had the same value as set on the blynk app.
