Abstract:-

This paper presents the design, development, and construction of an automated cane and bottle crusher. The primary objective is to create a portable and compact machine that can crush bottles and cans, facilitating recycling while minimizing human effort. The machine incorporates a single slider-crank mechanism, a fulcrum system, and basic automation features to achieve efficient crushing. This project also includes a comprehensive study of forces, design elements, and manufacturing processes, ensuring user ergonomics and ease of maintenance. Key components, such as pulleys, belts, an induction motor, and a speed reducer, are detailed. The paper concludes with the successful assembly and testing of the machine, demonstrating its effectiveness in recycling applications.
