  1. Can Crusher Nate Kunzer, Charvee Makwana, Keval Amin, Grant Wetherton

  2. Agenda CAD Drawings Bill of Materials Build Process Test Plan Prototype Lessons Learned Summary • Team Roles • Team Constitution • Timeline • 10 steps of 12-step Design Process • Background/Justification • Customer • Scope • Deliverables

  3. Team Roles • Leader- Nate Kunzer • Scribe- Keval Amin • Scribe- Charvee Makwana • Timekeeper- Grant Wetherton

  4. Team Constitution • Respect each other • Avoid blaming others for any failures • NO idea will be ridiculed • NO ONE member will dominate over others • Respect each others opinions

  5. Timeline

  6. Problem Statement • Work for Alpha Engineering Company • Received note that can disposition needs to be reduced by 70% • Failure to do so results in $.05 penalty per can

  7. Background/Justification • Have to dispose of 70% of can • For every can not crushed; $0.05 penalty

  8. Customers • Roadrunner Tracking • Mr.Pritchard- ITC Teacher

  9. Scope Resources • Ms. Hernacki- dimensions • Mr. Hund- CAD • Mr. Pritchard- Building, dimensioning Materials • Aspen wood • Ply wood • Nails • Wood Glue

  10. Scope (cont) • Customer Constraints • 18”x24”x30”. • one simple machine. • can must fall into bin • No human intervention • can bin must slide in and out. • Must be manually operated.

  11. Deliverables • Tech Report • PowerPoint Presentation • Final Can Crusher Prototype

  12. Brainstorming • History of Can Crushers • Define Can Crusher • Purpose • Relation to real world • Amount crushed at once • Size of hole where cans fall

  13. Research & Generate Ideas • How to make a lever • What simple machines are we going to use? • What should be considered when building a can crusher? • Dimensions of an aluminum can • What kind of wood will be the most stable?

  14. Identify Criteria & Specify Constraints • At most must be 18” by 30” by 24” • Need One simple Machine • Bin must hold 20 crushed cans • Must be manually operated

  15. Explore Possibilities

  16. Nate’s Design (Solution 1)

  17. Charvee’s Design (Solution 2)

  18. Keval’s Design (Solution 3)

  19. Grant’s Design (Solution 4)

  20. Select an Approach Scale 1(worst)-5(best) Scale: 1(worst)-5 (best)

  21. Type of Binding Scale: 1(worst)-5(best)

  22. Size of Wood Scale: 1(worst)-5(best)

  23. Type of Wood Scale: 1(worst)-5(best)

  24. Develop a Design Proposal

  25. Bill of Materials

  26. Build Process • Can Bin • Can Body • Stopper • Connector • Lever • Crusher • Final Assembly

  27. Test Plan

  28. Prototype • Could not always follow build process • Helpful and gave ideas in building • Some parts did not fit together

  29. Test & Monitor

  30. Refine • Made several changes • Bought wood that was stable • Re-made handle • Re-glue • Align parts

  31. Lessons Learned • Adjust to a work group and different people • Manage our time and use it wisely • Don't procrastinate • Problem solve

  32. Summary • Communication skills • Built can crusher from scratch • Problem solved

  33. Bibliography • http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-a-can-crusher.htm
