Abstract

This paper presents the steps taken by distilleries to uphold years old traditions and how new design tools can streamlined the current manufacturing processes. Different methods for bung removal are explored and how they are used today within warehouses and distilleries worldwide. The aim is to test new designs to replace the current tools used in distillery process to perform heavily manual tasks. Models of the current and new design are produced, and both are tested in a digital environment for ergonomics and time efficiency purposes.
