JUSTIFICATION
AMONG THE FOUR GENERATED DESIGNS , DESIGN 2 SEEMS TO BE MORE EFFICIENT , LESS COST , MORE RELIABLE , BETTER FUNCTIONING AND ONE STEP AHEAD IN ALL FEATURES.
- COST : AFFORDABLE
- FLUENCY : FLEXIBLE MOTION AND USER FRIENDLY
- SPACE : FITS CORRECTLY WITH GIVEN DIMENSION
- AESTHETICS : CLASSY LOOK

MECHANISM -XY PLOTTER
Based on the program written and with the help of servo motors and arduino mega,the plotter moves along x and y axis. The plotter is made to move along x and y axis using plain shaft with slider , threaded shaft with coupling and nuts.
- Coding software-c or c++
- Processor-Arduino mega
- Motor-Servo motor , Stepper motor
