A Novel Development of a Manual Can Crusher

Our piece of work to be done for this project is to design and create a can crusher that will reduce to the smallest possible amount of the volume of aluminum cans by 70%. The can crusher will be made up of various parts containing as part of the whole being considered a lever, base frame, can bin, piston cylinder arrangement, chain sprocket mechanism and bearing. The inspiration behind this design came from the wastage in malls, canteens of big company often the holidays involve large parties where people gather and consume a lot of canned beverages. Thus, it makes sense that there should be an easy way to dispose of cans properly during these large social gatherings. Thus this can crusher was created, with a portable and manually operated mechanism. Can crushers are primarily used to save space and recycling. Can crushers make it possible to make small stackable piles that save space. There are many designs that can crushers come in. Some of the designs are pneumatic, hydraulic and chain operated with sprockets. Recycling is wonderful way to help the environment. One device that will make our life easier, and our recycling haul much more compact, is the can crushing machine. Can crushing machine are available in a number of styles, sizes and speed, with models to suit everyone from the heavy soda drinker to the recycling center man.
