Group 11 - Dual Stage Snow Thrower (Gasoline Powered)

Product Dissection and Analysis of the Toro CCR-2000 Snow Thrower

Abstract

Our group took apart, analyzed, and reassembled the CCR-2000. The goal was to examine the critical systems and components of the machine, and the decisions involved in the manufacturing of the blower.

We split the project into four steps: Planning, Dissection, Analysis, and Reconstruction. The steps are laid out below
