The development of digital technology has driven the use of the Internet of Things (IoT) in various fields, including the manufacturing industry. This study aims to provide an overview of the design of an IoT-based monitoring and control system for DC motor speed on conveyors, using the Ubidots platform. The developed system integrates an encoder sensor, a JGA25-370 DC motor, an ESP32 microcontroller, an L298N motor driver, and an I2C LCD. The methodology used in this study is Rapid Application Development (RAD), while the motor speed control technique employs Pulse Width Modulation (PWM). Speed adjustment is performed via a potentiometer, while the On/Off function and motor rotation direction control can be accessed through physical buttons or via the Ubidots interface connected using the MQTT communication protocol. Test results indicate that the system successfully connects to the Wi-Fi network and can communicate in real-time with the Ubidots platform. The system is also capable of effectively monitoring and controlling the speed of the DC motor. However, speed adjustment still relies on manual input via the potentiometer, necessitating further development to enable remote speed control. These findings are expected to provide educational and practical value in IoT applications, while also enhancing efficiency and flexibility in conveyor-based production systems.
