Design of energy harvesting generator base on rapid prototyping parts

This paper deals with an alternative design of an electromagnetic energy harvesting generator for supplying wireless sensors with energy. The developed device is complex mechatronics system which generates an electrical power from an ambient mechanical vibration by use of a suitable construction of electromagnetic generator. The developed design of generator has immobile parts base on rapid prototyping parts from ABS plastic material. It is suitable for product of device and it provides lightweight device with sufficient durability. As this device is excited by ambient mechanical vibration, it harvests electrical energy due to Faradaypsilas law.
