Rock Crusher

Mechanical Rock Crusher

2023

I designed this rock crusher for a final project in a mechanical design course. A mechanical system was designed with a motor controller to adjust the crushing size and speed. An enclosure was then designed for safety and aesthetics.

Tools in a machine shop were used to machine the acrylic, aluminum, and steel parts. Parts were also designed in SolidWorks CAD and then 3D printed. A laser cutter was used to manufacture and engrave the enclosure.
