All product manufacturing units need to have a faulty product detection and separation system in order to maintain product quality and maintain a good reputation. So here we demonstrate such a system using a mini conveyer belt system. We propose to design and fabricate a faulty product detection and separation mechanism. Each product is different and thus has different mechanisms to detect faulty products. Here we detect fault in lock based on its size and operations. We use a sensor to detect each lock size and operations as products move over a conveyer belt. The conveyer is design so that it can hold the lock so that it does not fall or leave the conveyer belt. A defected product with size lower than minimum limit will be automatically detected as it moves on a conveyer belt and separated by a conveyer arm. If the product passes the size test the next sensor perform it task to operate the lock so that it can open the locking mechanism and check if it opens or not. If the product passes the test it is send for packaging and if not the product is separated and sent to production line for correct the fault. Here we use rollers and rubber belt to develop a mini conveyer belt mechanism. This mechanism is operated by a motor. This system uses servo motor arm to separate the faulty product.
