Problem
The current material used in the counterweights has increased in price and requires a large space inside the apparatus.
Objective
Development of a higher density material that allows us to reduce space while reducing cost, with the use of recycled or low-value materials
ATRIA Solution
In the first place, several materials were studied, assessing their cost and density.
Use of different percentages of recycled materials to make different mixtures for the study.
In addition, properties such as density, resistance…
As a final result, the prototype of the piece was made with the composition that obtained the best performance.
