Abstract
This paper focuses on the integration of Wet grinders and IoT. A wet grinder is one of the common household appliances used in India for preparing the batter, Rice and dhal are the main raw materials used in the preparation of the batter. According to the “Diagnostic Study of the wet grinder at Coimbatore “ By the Ministry of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises[1], about 100,000 Wet Grinders are produced in India. In the era where technology and human interacts and where every technology is rapidly enhancing, it is necessary to update the Wet Grinder which is a basic appliance and incorporate this with IoT. Ponmani Power Table Top Tilting Wet Grinder is used and it houses 180W single phase Induction motor and operates at 180-240V, 50HZ AC power supply. Complementing the Wet grinder with IoT features, such as users can remotely control the power of the Wet Grinder, a water pump is used to add the necessary volume of water for the grinding process, the motor temperature is constantly monitored and if the temperature rises beyond the safe limit, power is cut off automatically. The timer feature is provided to the Wet grinder, setting automatic power on/off control and the user can control the amount of water pumped into the wet grinder. To incorporate the above features, 2 Channel relay is used to control the wet grinder and water pump which is connected to NodeMCU ESP8266, LM35 is used to measure the motor's temperature. The Smart Wet Grinder is controlled remotely via the user’s smartphone using the BLYNK Application. Smart Wet Grinder will empower the homemakers and will give them the freedom to multitask and it will also improve society by reducing food waste.
