gently caress that get it for the press, rig it up to some sort of controller so you can dial it in, and boom you have a monstrously strong although small press for any of your smashing needs.

yeah the teardowns said that it wasn't necessarily a bad machine, just hilariously overengineered for squeezing juice packs

a lot of its parts were custom made when they didn't have to be so you probably can't strip components out and use them for something else though

to a slight extent i suspect it is an overextension of whitehats in security that has made engineers incapable of getting that these things should be considered before built, the sort of mindset that everything that can be done will get done no matter what, so e.g. making a proof of concept public research would be the best outcome

which is a decent philosophical underpinning for a lot of computer security. not all even there though, arguably, like in my little home town where enterprising whitehats widely published how to fake the very cheap tickets for the municipal bus system, which caused largely the maximum possible harm (the system had to be reworked at great cost), and which i hold was unlikely to happen without them

if they were actually engineers they would be forced to consider these things since they would be directly criminally liable for designing them

i would say it's underengineered. speccing expensive custom cnc-machined parts all over the place is lazy design. their engineer probably went "i could make a device that squeezes bags for like a $40 BOM, but that would take some effort and we're gonna sell this for 400 bucks so gently caress it"

alternate theory is that their engineer was clever and deliberately overbuilt it so that in a year or two he* could replace the expensive aluminum part with a cheaper polymer version, cut the production cost 50%, and get a big fat bonus

which is still absurd, because the actual business model was "pay us $8 or more per lovely juice pack that makes less than a glass". not "buy the machine which we're taking a loss on anyway"
