I'm looking for a skilled individual to build a pneumatic can emptying and crushing machine. This machine is to work with 355ml (12oz) and 473ml (16oz) aluminum cans, at a rate of 25-50 cans per minute. - Feeding System: I need a semi-automated system. The machine should have a manual loading mechanism for filled cans, which will then be automatically emptied, drained and crushed. Splashing and foaming must be contained within the machine. The crushed cans should drop into a bin. - I have a specific concept in mind using four pneumatic actuators, some sensors and an Arduino based controller however implementation is open to improvements so long as requirements are met. - The basic concept could potentially become a commercial product however I need one to destroy approximately 10,000 cans soon. We could discuss further commercialization of the result if our device works well. - you must be located in the Calgary area and be at least 18 years of age so that you can work with testing filled beer cans at our brewery. No, don't even ask, you cannot volunteer to empty them manually!! If you are not in the Calgary Alberta, Canada area, please do not respond. The ideal candidate for this project would be someone with experience in designing and building similar machinery. You should have a good understanding of mechatronics, pneumatics, Arduino or similar controller and be able to work on this starting soon. I am also expecting that the structure for this will be done in transparent plastic. I am an engineer running a business that needs this and I would like to build it myself, but do not have time. I would expect it to be a full-time five to ten day project. Depending on your experience, I may be able to offer technical support to somebody who can make this However, I would prefer if you can work fairly autonomously.
