Project Background Project Descriptions Vertellus Specialties Inc.  Makers of Mouthwash and Gum Favor Improve Employee Safety  Manual to Automatic Lifting of Barrels  Less Strenuous  More Efficient Design a Machine to Lift and Pour Fiber Drums  Pour Powdered Chemicals into Reactors

Revised Scope The Reactors 36” - 46” High 15” - 26” Deep 2 Buildings Financial Stewardship Increased focus on stewardship

Power System Power Options  Manual  Electric/gearbox  Pneumatic  Air over Oil  Hydraulics

Manual Pros: simple, inexpensive Cons: slow, strenuous to worker Pros: lift and compact, precise control Cons: explosion proof Electric/Gears

Pneumatic Pros: relatively inexpensive, high speed Cons: poor control, not enough power Pros: large lift capacity, explosion proof, fast Cons: relatively expensive, possibility of fluid leaks Hydraulic

Hydraulics Uses the simple principle of leverage

Hydraulic Components Power Options  Electric Motor  Air Motor  Reciprocating  Rotating Motion Options  Rotary Actuator  Linear Actuator

Proposed Solution Simple Tilting Frame Manual Height Adjustment Linear Hydraulic Cylinder Rotary Air Motor Over Center Valve Manual Control Valves

Future Challenges Hydraulic system analysis Chemical material properties  Flow Optimize Frame strength and weight  FEA Possible use of obsolete machinery Finalize PPFS
