Design and development of the vibrating sifter system for the existing design of dried chilli seed Separating Machine
Abstract
Design and development of the vibrating sifter system for the existing design of dried
chilli seed separating machine based on the problem existing which to design the adjustable
vibrating system of the sifter and the mounting system of the motor. This is because sifter‟s
length from the machine cannot be controlled. So, the movement of the chilli skin out the
machine cannot be controlled. Besides that the mounting motor of the existing sifter produces
noise while operating. This not good for the customer since its will affect the hearing ability
of the customer if frequently uses. The final concept design is been identified by using
Quality Function Deployment (QFD) methods that consist of house of tools, scoring method,
and screening method. The CAD drawing of the project also been done to make the static
analysis simulation in the CATIA software. The analyses have been done such as Finite
Element Analysis, Force analysis, and cost analysis. The simulation of the CATIA, the
redesign is much better than the existing design in terms of application and the comfortable of
the customers.
