dc.description.abstractWe are tasked to develop a machine or system for LabExpress that makes plugging polystyrene vials with cellulose acetate plugs a less labor intensive and more efficient process. Currently, LabExpress has to dedicate two workers, every week, up to 10 hours in total to plug 100 trays of vials of which each tray contains 100 vials. This process is not only tedious but it is strenuous to the workers and as such, the results of plugging can be inconsistent which leads to plugs being stuck inside the vials when customers attempt to remove them.
