Customer/Market Requirements

The project sponsor requires to design a functional prototype of a machine that produce traps.[e][f]

Design Challenges

The design team is focused on building a lightweight structure that decreases the time required to make the traps. [g]

When the design team started this project it was thought that a machine could turn resources into a fully made traps with just a push of a button. After much research and many designs, it was found that an assembly line with a few different machines would work best.[h][i]

Outcomes[j]

The team has developed a conceptual design that nearly automats everything of the trap making process.
