Electric Automatic : Automatic electric is an electric and efficient automatic that is powered by electricity and can fill up to 8 cans at once. When the automatic mode is turned on, the machine will automatically flatten the cans without requiring you to be on duty ;

 — I built an electric that works off 120 VAC. Uses Arduino board software written in C++ and and crushes a can in7 sec. been in use for about a year. Still looking for financing...

You can easily control linear actuators using a simple H-bridge circuit — put it together with an Arduino and a bit of woodwork, and you can make yourself an automatic crusher for beverage cans — no soldering required!

This project is a fully automatic based on the microcontroller ATmega328p Arduino Uno. The machine is made of two hydraulic rams and an Arduino which has a LDR and a LED as a can sensor. There are two relays for switching the hydraulic cylinders.

 — [All Things Electro-Mechanical] thinks so anyway, for he has created an automatic that is a joy to behold. At its heart is a 120V AC powered linear actuator, which crushes a can held in a welded steel guide.

 — How to Build a Power Pop From PVC. By Sam Kellenberg Updated July 17, 2017. There are many different varieties of powered s, and in many cases, plans for such crushers call for a solenoid or pneumatic ram.

 — You want to get a up and running right away, how about you try out this guide and build a in 15 minutes. You'll need wood, a hinge, screws, a drill, and a handsaw. This is a simple woodworking project, easy for anyone to do.

 — You can easily control these actuators using a simple H-bridge circuit — put it together with an Arduino and a bit of woodwork, and you can make yourself an automatic crusher for beverage cans — no soldering required!

 — AUTOMATIC CYCLE+MANUAL BUTTON CONTROL: This electronic adopts three button controls(forward, backward, and automatic cycle functions). When you press and hold the forward or backward button, the will operate according to your instructions.

 — Over on Make, they walk you through building this DIY crusher, from writing the code to getting the actuator to work properly.
