The system can be further improvised by the design engineers that diminish the cost and also the size of the product as these systems are designed for the distinctive applications.
The designed system integrates different technologies that may include the employment of load cell for the weight measurement of the milk, solenoid valves for the regular flow of the milk, IR pair sensor for the detection of the bottle at the milk discharge point, Chilling centreto refrigerate the milk, flow sensor for the specific quantity of the milk to be released in the bottles and the USB use of PIC controller.
