Abstract: Pottery is made manually by artisans, manufacturers, and local workshops with age-old techniques. It is a part of India's heritage. But the practice of this art is gradually decreasing due to urbanization, shortage of labor, and other causes. To ensure its preservation an AI-based, IoT-integrated smart pottery machine has been developed. This futuristic machine processes pottery with greater ease and efficiency. It has three chambers. Input Chamber with allowance for soil-water mixing, to a suitable uniform mixture, to high-quality raw material. Shaping Chamber where the pot is molded and shaped. It starts with a rotating base, with speed and movement controlled accurately to produce uniform shaping. Robotic knobs that are adjustable shape the clay, for fitting different designs and patterns. The process will go on until the product is produced with the required design. The robotic knobs are very important in forming machine-made pottery to closely look like hand-finished products. A thread system is implemented to cut and finish the product with ease also a water spray system is attached to keeps the clay moisture for ease of handling, and dryer system is implemented to prevent cracking during the process. Output Chamber where the finished product is collected ready to be used or processed further. This pottery machine is a perfect combination of technology and tradition to provide for the preservation and modernization of one of India's most valued cultural heritage.
Description:The AI-driven Smart Pottery Manufacturing System is an advanced, automated solution that uses AI, IoT, and robotic automation to optimize traditional pottery-making while preserving its values. All production phases, starting from soil preparation to shaping and kiln drying, ensure efficiency and consistency. Soil mix with a corresponding amount of water is accurately pre-programmed by an AI algorithm that guides preparation. Robotic arms achieve the desired shapes and patterns accurately and as close to traditional handmade pottery as possible. Smarter, IoT-enabled sensors monitor humidity and temperature continuously and, using that data, improve the drying and curing process in a smart kiln. This innovation combines cyber-physical systems, smart process control, and advanced manufacturing techniques. It enhances productivity, reduces labor dependency, and allows for high-quality output while maintaining the traditional craftsmanship. This system brings to life potter-making in the most innovative manner in such a way that it becomes more sustainable and adaptable to modern demands. , Claims:• It brings artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things for the automation of the pottery-making process.
• The input chamber is built with autonomic devices in which accurate mixture of soil and water is prepared. so that a consistent starting material can be produced.
• The processing chamber consist a rotating base and variable robotic knobs to precisely form and shape the pottery.
• It provides ability to designs and patterns with flexibilities through AI.
• The system is implemented with a cutting mechanism for easy separation of the product.
• Includes a water spray system, which is regulates the moisture within the clay during its formation stage.
