ABSTRACT
The study of manufacturing was very important in order to carried out this project to
ensure that student understand on what are needs to do. This project is about designing
and fabricating the Can Crusher to helps people easy to crush the Aluminium,tin and
soda cans. This project involves the process of designing the crusher using considering
forces and ergonomic factor for people to use. After the design has complete,it was
transformed to its real product where the design is used for guideline. These projects
also require ensuring the safety for indeed of publishing. Methods and process involve in
this project for instance joining using bending, welding, drilling, and cutting process. This
project is mainly about generating a new concept of Can Crusher that would make easier
to bring anywhere and easier to crush the tin. After all process had been done, this
crusher may help us to understand the fabrication and designing process that involve in
this project.Even though there are many types of the can crusher machine in the
market, the completion of this new model provide same practical usage.
Introduction:
The main purpose of this project is to understand the fundamental knowledge of design
and mechanism by using gear system and a simple mechanism property. This project
contains of designing and fabrication of can crusher machine. There have many
differences between this can crusher with current design in marketplace. This project is
to develop and improving it performance as well so that there has no doubt about the
design and concept. This design required little forces to crush the aluminum cans, can
crush a can at a time. In this project, it requires lot of skills, information and also
knowledge such as Computer Aided Design software, Solid works software, using
machine called shearing machine, bending machine, vertical bend saw, bench work and
welding process. This design definitely would help the user. So, this design would
through much process before it get into prototype term in order to achieve the
objectives and off course customer need.
A mechanical tin can crusher is basically one of the most aid able machines. It helps to
reduce the pollute environment of this world. Thus helps create a better place to live in.
apart from that, this can crusher can actually be the future mode of recycle part from
the recycle bins. It can be placed everywhere, in the park, houses, even incurs, by using
a smaller can crusher. Therefore, this project interest and expose me the field of
mechanism and design Engineering. To design the mechanical part of a can crusher and
to fabricate the Mechanical part of the system.
