This project is part of the greater initiative, Bobcats Repurpose, which aims to establish methods for the Texas State University community to recycle post-consumer plastic waste on campus. Our team is designing and manufacturing an improved plastic shredder to efficiently process material for recycling. The new shredder will incorporate basic design elements from the first iteration with improved key features that prioritize safety, usability, and process controls.
