Abstract

ABSTRACT This project focuses on the design, development, and evaluation of an automated jack system controlled by a wired remote control for lifting and lowering loads efficiently and safely. The system integrates key components, including a wiper motor, spiral jack, power supply unit, and a wired remote control, all working in synchronization to achieve seamless functionality. Each component was rigorously tested under real-world conditions to verify its performance, stability, and reliability. The power supply unit demonstrated consistent voltage output (5.00V) under varying loads, ensuring uninterrupted operation for all connected components. The wiper motor effectively handled lifting tasks without overheating or performance degradation. The wired remote control reliably transmitted accurate commands for both upward and downward movement of the jack, with no signal delays or miscommunication observed. Tests on the jack validated smooth and stable motion during both lifting and lowering operations. An integrated system test, simulating real-world scenarios, confirmed the synchronization and robustness of all components, achieving a 100% success rate across multiple trials. The system also demonstrated precision and efficiency in handling loads with minimal delay during operation. Overall, the results highlight the system’s capability to meet design objectives and its suitability for practical applications, providing a reliable and user-friendly solution for automated lifting tasks.
