The main aim of the thesis is to present the design and implementation of control electronics for a milk sampler. This sampler aims to improve part of the process in the dairy processing industry. Currently available systems are very expensive, complex and custom made.
Initially, the milk characteristics and potential danger of milk spoiling and embezzlement are presented, emphasizing the need for milk sampling. There is also a brief presentation of the milk sampler and its principle of operation. Implemented components and their testing in the control electronics of the sampler are also described. The system is based on an Arduino mi-crocontroller. In the end, the final integration and testing of the whole sampling setup in a real time environment is presented.
