Analysis of automated swallow bird feeding machine

Abstract

This final year paper report is about design and analysis of automated swallow bird feeding machine. For this project, it is focus on the development of the machine and the analysis of the machine. Currently, the bird house entrepreneur feed the bird manually. From the study, there is the opportunity to design the machine with good efficiency. The objective of this project is to analyze the structure of the machine and the flow of the particle for the mechanism of the machine. The methodology of this project include the collection of data, brainstorming and interprets data, design concept, analysis, fabrication and documentation. The design of the automatic swallow bird feeding machine is using Solidworks software software. With this software, the structure can be analyze to Finite Element Analysis (FEA) directly. The flow of the air from blower that act as the mechanism in this machine can be analyze by using the Computational Fluid Dynamis (CFD) simulation. With using of these software, the data can be using to make the improvement to the machine. The result of the analysis is shown on the form of the finite element analysis, particle trajectory of food and the air flow from the blower.
