designing & constructing RUB TABLE SUMMER 2021
-
During my internship with ECL, I was assigned with a project to integrate the issue on the production floor.
-
During the manufacturing process, there is a step called "Rubbing" where the worker will clean graphite dust on the graphite board. The graphite dust usually end up on the floor or being blow in the air, resulting into safety hazard situation.
-
The current solution is to use a suction to suck all the dust. However, due to being used for a long period of time, the vacuum does not perform well anymore. They can be changed but this solution will cost money.
-
Therefore, I designed a rub table, that allows the dust to be collected at the bin when it falls out through funnel. The surface of the table is designed to perforated which allows the dust to pass through to the surface. To increase the chance that dust fall through the pocket, the vibrator is attached to the table. The strength can be controlled through the control box on the side of the table.
