Alat Pres Kaleng Aluminium Berbasis STMicroeletronic

Abstract

In efforts to support waste management and promote efficient recycling practices,
an effective tool for processing used aluminum cans is required. This tool utilizes both semiautomatic and manual systems, with the primary drive being a double-acting pneumatic
cylinder. The operational system of this tool is such that when a proximity sensor detects a can, the cylinder will activate, and the crushed can will fall into a collection area or onto the floor. Testing of the proximity sensor on the can crusher shows that the sensor detects cans at a distance of 1 cm, with the cylinder advancing for 1 second and then retracting for 1 second to compress a single can. The can crushing process requires an air pressure of 10 bar to achieve maximum compression. The can crusher can produce up to 30 compressed cans per minute.
