Abstract

Arduino is open-source electronics prototyping platform that allows you to create interactive projects and control electronic devices. Arduino has been used in various fields, from education to industry, to create innovative solutions in automation, robotics, Internet of Things (IoT), art and design, among others. The purpose of the separator belt is to separate metallic materials from other waste. It consists of a movable surface with sensors and separation devices that classify materials by type and direct them to the correct containers. To build the treadmill, a base cut from MDF was used, for its operation a motor was used, for the detection of metals an inductive sensor and to display the information an LCD display was used, thus, when activated a servo motor is activated separating the material. Programming was done in C++ using the Arduino IDE itself. The prototype of the separating belt worked, and it was possible to prove its usefulness in separating metallic and non-metallic materials.
