Aluminum Can Crusher

grabcad

This is the mechanical group project that I did for my semester 2, CAD module. We were told by our lecturer to design an aluminum can crusher. This can crusher model is stacked up to 3 crusher side-by-side. It can be more than 3, but just to show that our can crusher is a modular design. Instead of using crank slider mechanism for crushing, we used scotch yoke mechanism. It can be either motorized or hand operated.
