Ideas needed for automatic can crusher?

I need some creative engineer brains here. For a project, my team and I must design an automatic can crusher. The cans will be placed somewhere, and then once we hit the quot;ONquot; switch, we can not touch the machine until all 5 cans are crushed.

Answer:

Use the screwdriver motor to pull a cable, and pick up a heavy weight using a pulley. Then release, dropping the weight on the can, to crush it. Repeat five times. I would liken this to a pile driver if you've ever worked construction
