However, we need a machine to fold at the right edges, crease, and fold into paper bag form. This project may combine research, 3d modeling, product development, fabrication, simulations, Pneumatic control systems, or electric actuators.Research on the existing paper folding machinesResearch on existing paper bag making machineDesign and drafting 3D modelingBrainstorming design ideas.Developing a design prototype.Build a basic prototypeRefining design ideas with feedback from experts You will have access to a member of our management team for direction, clarification, and customer and industry insights.
