Project Overview Industry Inspired Project • Toppy Involved in Material Handling. • Inquiry of Products not In Production. • Bottle Distribution. • Pallets of Liquid-Filled Boxes. • Lower Layer of Boxes Damaged. • Design a Device to Separate Good From Damaged Boxes. Picture by US Plastic Pallets & Handling www.usplasticpallets.com, 2006
Current Prototype • Scaled to One-Tenth of Industrial Design. • Attached to a Gantry. • Lowered to Desired Height. • Secure Undamaged Boxes. • Lift to Clearance Height. • Move Boxes to Adjacent Pallet. • Lower Boxes Onto New Pallet. Toppy Bottle Separator Picture By Jason Varini, 2006
Detailed Toppy Design Actuator Motor and Mount Securing Plates Toppy Bottle Separator Picture By Jason Varini, 2006
Performance Actuator Movement Slow Due to Gear Requirements. Device Does Open and Close. Secures Boxes. Gantry System Does Lift and Lower Device to Desired Height. Performance Problems Unwanted Movement Due to Gantry Rope. Actuation is Slow. Actuator Thread Catches In Motor Mount Block. Unable to Sense Pressure Being Applied to Boxes. Prototype Performance
Industrial Design Manufacture Estimate Material - $2,360 Labor - $1,700 Labor Hours - 56 Total = $4,060 Estimate Sale Price Machine Cost - $4,060 Gantry - $16,428 Pulley - $2,121 Profit - 20% machine cost Total = $23,421 Prototype Material Cost To Date For Model Prototype: $93.70 Cost Analysis
Future Work Future Production of Industrial Design Unknown. • Detailed Stress Analysis. • Force Distribution In Plates. • Stabilize Device. Preparation for Design Day • Continue Testing Prototype. • Continue Improving Actuation. • Complete Prototype Aesthetics.
