hello guys
i made a automatic kh tester with Arduino,
and the case made by 3d printer,
two dc motor and one step motor,

but i have a problem,
i was learned c++ ten years ago, just little.

If you open source the project you might get lucky and find a couple of people willing to help you with the missing bits...
the code is very crude .a lot of delay() in the code.

I put together a titrator using Raspberry Pi
I have been using it for four years.
I am constantly redoing something.
Accuracy 0.1 kh compared to Hanna.

Good luck with your project!

Looks awesome! Are you planning to publish it so others can replicate, by any chance?

I presume you use one of the RTC chips to keep track of time? Arduino's don't have a built-in clock, just a timer allowing to count milliseconds (up to 11 days).

I want to build one to, but I don’t really have any knowledge on how to use Arduino or anything like that is there anyway anyone can help me?

Like is there a walkthrough on what pieces I need and what programs I need?
Sure, most of these projects are controlled by Arduino, a comprehensive guide on getting started can be found here:

The programming part is actually the easiest one, connecting pump motors, PH board and stirrer is a bit more complicated. Generally such project is not for beginners and I would recommend to start with a simpller one..

In terms of wiring - the schematic diagaram for a peristaltic pump can be found here:

I don’t know any actual programming language, but do know a bit about them in general…would using Python language work? My understanding is that Python is fairly easy for folks to learn / use…

Aruino runs on C++.. however most use of C++ is very basic. If you programmed in other languages you shoulld be able to adapt to write simple Arduino programs.. But generally no to Python (and BTW it's a horrible language with almost no structure)..

Sure, check out the pyduino. Or you could use a raspberry pi, they are python native.

Is this an open source project with STL to print uploaded somewhere ? I'm very interested...
