Cost-Effective Redesign & Sourcing Strategies for Tampers & Small Roller Wheels

The Unicorr Packaging Senior Design Project, led by MEM Team 11 & ME Team 59, aimed to revamp efficiency through cost-effective redesign and sourcing strategies for critical parts in Unicorr’s machinery. The project focused on recreating and locally sourcing components such as feed rollers, tampers, and rubber wheels to reduce production costs by 20%. This initiative is driven by the high costs and dependency on overseas suppliers, with a vision to enhance part longevity, reduce downtime, and cut overall production costs.

Our team collaborated with Mechanical Engineering 59 on this project.
