This Project has been undertaken to address the need for skill development and knowledge enhancement in pneumatic systems and automation control, which are crucial in today’s manufacturing industry. Pneumatic systems play a vital role in various production processes, including machine control, automated devices, and assembly lines. However, the Department of Measurement and Control Engineering currently lacks a laboratory dedicated to the study and experimentation of pneumatic systems due to the deterioration and lack of maintenance of the previously used equipment. This has resulted in students missing the opportunity to practice essential skills required in the industrial sector. The authors of this thesis recognize the necessity of reviving and developing a pneumatic laboratory that can effectively support teaching, learning, and research activities. This project focuses on studying and developing industrial robotic arm control systems and pneumatic systems, integrating modern technologies such as Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC) and AI Vision. These systems are intended to be applicable to real-world industrial contexts. The outcomes of this project are expected to not only enhance the understanding of relevant technologies but also aim to transform the laboratory into a vital learning hub for current and future students. Furthermore, this initiative seeks to improve the competitiveness of students in the job market and support the development of innovations in the manufacturing industry in the years to come.
จากการศึกษาและประสบการณ์ในการฝึกงานของคณะผู้จัดทำ พบว่าระบบนิวเมติกส์และ PLC เป็นองค์ประกอบสำคัญในระบบอุตสาหกรรมยุคใหม่ โดยช่วยควบคุมและเพิ่มประสิทธิภาพในสายการผลิต ในอนาคตเทคโนโลยี AI Vision จะเข้ามามีบทบาทสำคัญในการพัฒนาอุตสาหกรรมการผลิต ด้วยความสามารถในการตรวจจับ วิเคราะห์ และประมวลผลข้อมูลภาพอย่างแม่นยำ ช่วยเพิ่มความแม่นยำในการควบคุมคุณภาพผลิตภัณฑ์ ลดข้อผิดพลาดในการผลิต และเพิ่มความสามารถในการปรับตัวให้เข้ากับกระบวนการที่ซับซ้อนมากขึ้น AI Vision สามารถใช้ในอุตสาหกรรมเพื่อตรวจสอบข้อบกพร่องของผลิตภัณฑ์แบบเรียลไทม์ วิเคราะห์ข้อมูลเพื่อเพิ่มประสิทธิภาพการผลิต และช่วยให้ระบบอัตโนมัติสามารถเรียนรู้และพัฒนาได้อย่างต่อเนื่อง โดยผสานกับ PLC และระบบนิวเมติกส์เพื่อให้เกิดความแม่นยำและการตอบสนองที่รวดเร็ว นอกจากนี้ AI Vision ยังสามารถพัฒนาไปสู่การตรวจสอบกระบวนการผลิตแบบอัจฉริยะ ช่วยลดต้นทุนในการดำเนินงาน และเพิ่มขีดความสามารถในการแข่งขันของภาคอุตสาหกรรมในอนาคต

During this cooperative education program at the Bang Bo District Agricultural Office, Samut Prakan Province, a study was conducted on the costs and returns of rice cultivation using chemical inputs compared to using biopesticides in combination with chemical inputs among farmers in Bang Phli Noi Subdistrict, Bang Bo District, Samut Prakan Province.The objectives of this study were: To examine the costs and returns of rice cultivation using chemical inputs compared to using biopesticides in combination with chemical inputs among farmers in Bang Phli Noi Subdistrict, Bang Bo District, Samut Prakan Province. To explore the challenges of using biopesticides in rice cultivation among farmers in Bang Phli Noi Subdistrict, Bang Bo District, Samut Prakan Province. The study found that in the 2024/25 growing season, the total production cost for rice cultivation using biopesticides in combination with chemical inputs was 5,099.50 THB per rai, consisting of variable costs of 4,432.50 THB per rai and fixed costs of 667.00 THB per rai. Meanwhile, the total production cost for rice cultivation using only chemical inputs was 5,129.00 THB per rai, consisting of variable costs of 4,390.00 THB per rai and fixed costs of 739.00 THB per rai. The cost difference between the two methods was 114.50 THB per rai. Regarding the returns on rice cultivation in the 2024/25 growing season, the field using biopesticides in combination with chemical inputs yielded 1,000.00 kilograms per rai, with an average selling price of 8,500.00 THB per rai. Farmers earned a total revenue of 8,585.00 THB per rai and a profit of 3,485.50 THB per rai. On the other hand, the field using only chemical inputs yielded 1,000.00 kilograms per rai, with an average selling price of 8,500.00 THB per rai. Farmers earned a total revenue of 8,500.00 THB per rai and a profit of 3,371.00 THB per rai. The total income difference between the two cultivation methods was 114.50 THB per rai. In terms of challenges related to the procurement of biopesticides, it was found that biopesticides are difficult to obtain, with limited or no availability in certain areas. Additionally, relevant agencies do not provide continuous support for biopesticides, making this the most significant issue. Regarding the use of biopesticides, the most critical challenge is that once fresh biopesticides are mixed, they must be used immediately and cannot be stored, as their effectiveness deteriorates over time.

Currently, Thailand is facing the issue of an aging agricultural workforce and a shortage of labor. The hiring process for agricultural workers is primarily based on word-of-mouth within a limited, narrow area. This may have indirect negative effects in various aspects, such as the lack of basic selection criteria (experience, skills), budget control, and hiring processes. As a result, the idea of creating a job platform specifically for farmers was conceived.Currently, Thailand is facing the issue of an aging agricultural workforce and a shortage of labor.
