4) Individual contributions
I focus on permanent communication, collaboration and contribution
- I balance my experience with my group capacities in this project
It is difficult to define an individual contribution. My individual contributions were focus on design the machine, ideas for components and the machine functionality, reviewing different products (I reviewed my home paper crusher), recycling components (others products on my lab), design and produce 3D printer pieces parts as product structure, panel, set up components (servo, screen), final assembly, documentation.
Define the product & learn about biomaterial production
Learn about biomaterial production
Design focus one critical process
Define the crusher as a critical process
