Robot Arm A senior Penn State Altoona Electro-Mechanical Engineering Technology project presentation by students Jacob Leydig, Skyler Moore, and John Telford.
A robotic arm with a claw-shaped manipulator that can be operated remotely via Bluetooth.
Energy Road Harvester A senior Penn State Altoona Electro-Mechanical Engineering Technology project presentation by students Joshua Eshelman, Kyle Fink, and Andrew Sherren.
Harvesting mechanical vibrations produced by road traffic into electrical energy using piezoelectrics. The electrical energy produced is then used for low-power applications or grid powering.
Bass Guitar Tuner A senior Penn State Altoona Electro-Mechanical Engineering Technology project presentation by student Ethan Cutshall.
The Automated Bass Guitar Tuner will accept the analog electrical signal directly from the instrument, as well as user inputs selecting the string and pitch to be tuned to. It will then safely and precisely tune the instrument via an electric motor and mechanical tuning peg interface to within ten cents of the desired note.
Bridge Buster A senior Penn State Altoona Electro-Mechanical Engineering Project Presentation by students Noah Reighard and Austin Stivanson.
Our project automates the testing and data collection of the popsicle stick bridge competition carried out in our EMET classes. The project allows for a more accurate and safe collection of the total weight and displacement of each bridge until failure.
HHG CNC Wood Milling Machine A senior Penn State Altoona Electro-Mechanical Engineering Project Presentation by students James Fogarty IV, Andrew Guthrie, Ryan Kleiman, and Caleb Shaw.
The project is a CNC mill with a turntable capable of creating screw mount holes for the instrumental drums for an industry partner HHG.
The Penny Pincher A senior Penn State Altoona Electro-Mechanical Engineering Technology project presentation by students Richard Chronister, Brett Eckenrode, and Benjamin Leffler.
A transparent view into the Electro-Mechanical Engineering Technologies Degree in which coins inserted by a user will be sorted, allowing only pennies to be launched, then crushed and embossed with the Penn State Logo and EMET acronym.
Automated Apple Cider Press A senior Penn State Altoona Electro-Mechanical Engineering Technology project presentation by students Andrew Imler, Jason McElheny, and Stephen Nileski.
State-of-the-art apple cider press that slices, grinds, presses, and dispenses apple cider.
EMCAT A senior Penn State Altoona Electro-Mechanical Engineering Technology project presentation by students Alex Horwitz, Seth Horwitz, Steven St.Pierre, and Matthew Weimert.
Our project uses electromagnetism to propel a model aircraft along and off a rail.
Automated Corn Feeder A senior Penn State Altoona Electro-Mechanical Engineering Technology project presentation by students Nicholas Garrett, Isaac Jackson, Zachary McCarty, and Ryan Platt.
A corn feeder designed to distribute feed on a timer and weigh out feed.
PSU 2020, an SD60i locomotive gifted to Penn State Altoona by Norfolk Southern, makes its way from Curry Rail Services in Hollidaysburg to the Railroaders Memorial Museum in Altoona, where it will be stored in the museum’s Harry Bennett Memorial Roundhouse.
