项目摘要

WORX Environmental Products of Canada Inc., a Calgary-based company dedicated to providing premium quality hand cleaning products, is seeking assistance from the Southern Alberta Institute of Technology (SAIT) to redesign its dispensers for the WORX® Biodegradable Hand Cleaner, a powdered cleaning solution for industrial use. WORX's dispensers are currently unable to dispense the powder-based hand cleaner consistently and accurately, and require the expertise of SAIT to improve their design. In 2016, SAIT collaborated with WORX on an NSERC Engage grant funded project that produced a new concept design for the WORX dispensers. In 2018-19, SAIT collaborated with WORX on a one year NSERC ARD2 grant funded project that produced a fully functioning manually operated dispenser. SAIT's Design, Fabrication and Testing (DFT) research group was approached by WORX for a further collaboration to upgrade this design by incorporating real feedback from field testing, to create a touchless version of the manually operated dispenser, and to then prepare both versions for manufacturing. Adding a touchless option and incorporating industry feedback to make a superior product will allow WORX to expand its share of the hand cleaner market, primarily among large industrial customers and perhaps more importantly on the touchless issue, which eliminate contamination issues related to COVID-19.

WORX加拿大环境产品公司，一家总部位于卡尔加里的公司致力于提供高质量的洗手产品，正在寻求南阿尔伯塔理工学院（SAIT）的帮助，以重新设计其WORX®生物降解洗手液的分配器，这是一种工业用的粉末状清洁溶液。WORX的喷雾器目前无法始终如一地准确分配粉末状洗手液，需要SAIT的专业知识来改进其设计。2016年，SAIT与WORX合作开展了NSERC Engage资助的项目，为WORX分配器提供了新的概念设计。在2018-19年度，SAIT与WORX合作开展了一项为期一年的NSERC ARD 2赠款资助项目，该项目生产了一台功能齐全的手动操作分配器。WORX与SAIT的设计、制造和测试（DFT）研究小组进行了进一步的合作，通过结合现场测试的真实的反馈来升级该设计，以创建手动操作分配器的非接触版本，然后为制造准备两个版本。增加非接触式选项并纳入行业反馈以制造上级产品将使WORX能够扩大其在洗手液市场的份额，主要是在大型工业客户中，也许更重要的是在非接触式问题上，这消除了与COVID-19相关的污染问题。
