Analisa Variasi Putaran pada Mesin Pengupas Kulit Kacang Merah Model Impact Rotary Berkapasitas 1 KG/ 3 Menit

Abstract

This red bean peeler machine is designed to facilitate the stripping of red bean skin using traditional methods. This machine is used to help small farmers to produce large products, saving time and labor. Basically, the working principle of this red bean peeler starts from an electric motor that produces power and rotation that is transmitted to the shaft. In the process we have problems about variations in the quality and results of the peeler that want to improve engine performance. To be able to solve variations in these results, testing can be done in five tests with 1 kg of each test with 3 different rotation variations (364 rpm, 420 rpm, 504 rpm). This machine has a capacity of 1 kg / 3 min, obtained from the test results an average of 184 seconds using electric motor power of 0.66 HP and the highest efficiency obtained at 82.6%.
