DESIGN AND FABRICATION OF PEPPER SEPARATOR MACHINE

Abstract

The present study was conducted to find a method to separate the seed and peel of camelia ollifera fruit. some domestic scholars have studied a separating device for seed and peel of camellia oleifera fruit with the rapid development of camellia oleifera industry. The purpose of the experiment is to find out optimum mechanical and electrical system for separating seed and peel of the fruit. Although the separating machine for seed and peel of camellia oleifera fruit has achieved certain development, there are generally problems such as low rate of separating and complex structure. Moreover, in many industries even now, the peppers are separated manually. Due to this manual process in industries, there is wastage of money and time. In order to avoid this wastage, we have designed the following model called pepper thresher machine. Therefore, a new type of separator is designed according to the different characteristics of seed and peel, and the single factor experiment and orthogonal experiment were carried out. In this project we fabricate a machine for the purpose of threshing the peppers. This is an advanced and easy process to separate pepper from the plant. In this process we do not need any high electrical supply to operate the machine. This model has the parts, rotating drum, a hopper and cam operated tray arrangement.
