This README and project are being updated as of May 2019, more alterations and uploads as per as-built prototype.

Turns a Orange Pi Zero into a universal & web-enabled Reflow Oven Controller.

Uses a custom PCB with IO expanders, watchdog and thermocouple ICs via 1-wire, SPI and i2c.

Hardware

  • Orange Pi Zero H2+
  • 4x MAX 31855 1-wire K-Type Thermocouple
  • 1x MPC23008 8 channel GPIO Expander
  • 8x AC zero-crossing Solid-State-Relays
  • 8x ACS7xx Alegro +-5A Isolated Current Sensor IC
  • 1x MPC xxxx 8 channel SPI ADC
  • 1x Ti xxx Hardware (programmable) watchdog
  • 1x LT4320 Ideal Diode Bridge Controller (24Vac -> DC)
  • 1x Relay switched 12V output

To update/fix on PCB 0.1

  • Power 1-wire from 3.3v OUTPUT of Orange Pi
  • Switch MOSI/MISO pins on Orange Pi breakout
  • Add one more AC solid state relays
  • Add two AC Return pins per "block"
  • Add DC motor driver/relay
  • Update OLED display connector pin-out
  • Change to thermocouple mini blocks instead of terminals
  • Change to terminal blocks to socket + connector (top entry)
  • Update overlay to show isolation zones

To update/fix in cabling diagram

  • Add thermal fuse
  • Add front panel deadman display

Installation

Dependencies

We've tried to keep external dependencies to a minimum to make it easily deployable on any flavor of open-source operating system. If you deploy it successfully on any other OS, please update this:

Currently tested versions

  • greenlet-0.4.2
  • bottle-0.12.4
  • gevent-1.0
  • gevent-websocket-0.9.3

Ubuntu/Raspbian

$ sudo apt-get install python-pip python-dev libevent-dev
$ sudo pip install ez-setup
$ sudo pip install greenlet bottle gevent gevent-websocket

Gentoo

$ emerge -av dev-libs/libevent dev-python/pip
$ pip install ez-setup
$ pip install greenlet bottle gevent gevent-websocket

Raspberry PI deployment

If you want to deploy the code on a PI for production:

$ pip install RPi.GPIO

This only applies to non-Raspbian installations, since Raspbian ships RPi.GPIO with the default installation.

If you also want to use the in-kernel SPI drivers with a MAX31855 sensor:

$ sudo pip install Adafruit-MAX31855

Clone repo

$ git clone https://github.com/ArakniD/picoReflow.git
$ cd picoReflow

Configuration

All parameters are defined in config.py, just copy the example and review/change to your mind's content.

$ cp config.py.EXAMPLE config.py

Usage

Server Startup

$ ./picoReflowd.py

Autostart Server onBoot

If you want the server to autostart on boot, run the following commands

sudo cp /home/pi/picoReflow/lib/init/reflow /etc/init.d/
sudo chmod +x /etc/init.d/reflow
sudo update-rc.d reflow defaults

Client Access

Open Browser and goto http://127.0.0.1:8080 (for local development) or the IP of your PI and the port defined in config.py (default 8080).
