  2. Agenda • Group Developments • Timeline • Problem Statement • Background • Costumer • Scope • Deliverables • Brainstorming • Research & Generate Ideas • Criteria • Constraints • Explore Possibilities • Selecting an Approach • Design Proposal • Prototype • Test & Monitor • Refine • Lessons Learned • Summary • Bibliography

  3. Group Development Roles and Responsibilities:

  4. Group Development (cont’d) Team Constitution • Effective Group

  5. Timeline • Kept us on task

  6. Problem Statement Roadrunner Trucking wants us to build a can crusher that will reduce the volume of their aluminum cans.

  7. Background • Roadrunner Trucking → a lot of aluminum cans • Aluminum cans must be reduced by 70% • $0.05 fine per can

  8. Customers • Mr. Pritchard -ITC instructor • Roadrunner Trucking -company we give product to

  9. Scope Outputs • Can Crusher • Tech Report • Power Point Resources • Internet • Mr. Pritchard- Tech • Miss Hernacki- Math Calculations • Mr. Hund- CAD Drawings

  10. Scope Potential Materials • Wood • PVC • Metal brackets • Metal hinges • Nails and screws

  11. Scope Key Constraints • Max space of 18”×24”×30” • One simple machine • One unit • Manually operated • Bin must hold 20 uncrushed cans

  12. Deliverables • Can Crusher • Tech Report • Power Point presentation

  13. Brainstorming • Materials • Size • Type of can crusher

  14. Research and Generate Ideas • Materials • Wood, metal hinges, screws and nails • Size of wood • ½”-2” thick • Type of can crusher • Self-loading with lever

  15. Criteria • Self-loading • Inexpensive • Simple • Not time consuming • Reliable

  16. Constraints • Max of 18” x 24” x 30” • Materials: wood, PVC, metal brackets, metal hinges, screw & nails • One simple machine • Crushed can falls into aluminum can bin • Bin slides in and out of crusher • Bin holds 20 uncrushed cans

  17. Explore Possibilities – Designs 1. Kartikey’s Design

  18. Explore Possibilities – Designs 2. Courtney’s Design

  19. Explore Possibilities - Designs 3. Sarah’s Design

  20. Explore Possibilities - Designs 4. Jon Ko’s Design

  21. Select an Approach • Design

  22. Select an Approach • Method of Bonding Parts

  23. Select an Approach • Method of Bonding

  24. Select an Approach • Nuts

  25. Develop a Design Proposal • CAD Drawings

  26. Develop a Design Proposal • Bill of Materials

  27. Develop a Design Proposal • Build Process • Obtain material • Trace outline of piece • Cut the material • Sand it • Glue, nail, or screw pieces • Assemble

  28. Develop a Design Proposal – Test Plan

  29. Prototype

  30. Test and Monitor • Test Plan

  31. Refine • Re-made lever pieces due to hex bolts • Took out handle • Made outside bin hole bigger • Changed CAD drawings

  32. Lessons Learned • Complete tasks without re-doing them • Assign work evenly • Use hand and power tools

  33. Summary • Learned a lot about can crushers • Procrastination • Work as a team • Stay positive • Make decisions together
