RESEARCH ABSTRACT:
Designer and Engineer worked together on the machine that helps to dip two ball tips on a single nylon bristle. The new machine can dip 200 nylon bristles in 10 min. Designer also studied the epoxy materials that can reduce the time drying the ball tips. Designer worked with the professor and students in the chemical university in Taiwan and change the formula in the epoxy material that the result is that new epoxy ball tips can dry in 2 hours after sending to the oven which reduce almost 6 hrs from the normal epoxy material.

CHALLENGE:
The most challenge parts are the method that we are going to dip two ball tips in ones nylon bristle. In order to reduce the time and costs, the machine development is required in this project. Designer and Engineer studied and tested many times to create a machine that can dip 200 nylon bristles in 10 min. And the machine produces better quality ball tips that human makes by hand which makes production much smoother and easier.
