Abstract

Packaging plays a vital role in brand identity building in the digital era, particularly through logo application. This study aims to design an automatic logo stamping machine for flexible packaging made of low-density polyethylene (LDPE) and analyze the effects of pneumatic pressure (4-6 bar) and stamping duration (1–5 seconds) on print quality. The machine integrates an Arduino Uno controller, a TCS3200 color sensor for automatic package positioning, and a pneumatic cylinder (30 mm stroke) as the pressing actuator. Operating at 220 V AC, the system enables fully automated logo printing on a conveyor belt. Print quality was evaluated using a 1-5 Likert scale based on the line sharpness, color density, and substrate integrity. Results indicate that 6 bar is the minimum pressure required to achieve consistently sharp prints; lower pressures (4-5 bar) failed to transfer ink effectively. The optimal parameter combination was identified as 6 bars for 1 second, balancing high print quality with operational efficiency. This solution provides a low-cost, user-friendly, and practical technology for micro-enterprises seeking to enhance packaging aesthetics independently and economically.

Abstract

Maintenance and repair of hydraulic cylinders, especially in confined areas like those in articulated dump trucks, can be very difficult because of access to tools and safety issues. In this study, the design and development of a Universal C-Wrench, a special tool for the safe and efficient assembly/ disassembly of hydraulic cylinder nut covers without removing the entire cylinder from the equipment were presented. An engineering design process (EDP) was used, which includes problem identification, requirement analysis, conceptual design, design selection, detailed design, prototyping and simulation-based validation. Three different design approaches were formulated, based on mechanical performance using finite element analysis (FEA), cost estimation, and field applicability. The final concept was chosen as Design 2, which was made of SS400 steel and had the lowest safety factor (12.075) that was still above the standard requirement for static load-bearing tools. Other improvements including dimensional changes, structural reinforcement and the implementation of dual handles for increased ergonomics were made based on field use and usability. Overall, the Universal C-Wrench is a versatile and cost-effective tool for servicing hydraulic cylinders in heavy machinery and could be used in other similar industrial applications.
