Team 14: Blood Plasma Bottle Active Weight Station

Abstract

Our team has partnered with Terumo, a global leader in blood component technologies, to maximize plasma yields from their new Rika Plasma Donation System. We developed a motor-integrated base that communicates with a weight station to rotate a plasma bottle throughout the donation process. This design will allow for an increase in plasma collection while maintaining donor safety and comfort.
