Development Of Manual Operated Oilbean Slicing Equipment
ABSTRACT
A manual operated oil bean slicing equipment which would be
affordable, simple to operate and easy to maintain by local and/or small scale
farmers and proccssors was designed and fabricated with locally available
materials. The design was based on the engineering standard and specifications.
Factors such as physical and mechanical properties of oil bean seeds,
mechanical properties of construction materials, machinability or deformability
of construction materials, wear resistance, cost ol materials were considered
in the fabrication of the device. The machine was tested with minimal damage of
the product. The bill of engineering measurement and evaluation revealed that
the machine was fabricated at a total cost of N15,800.00. The device match the
need of the oil bean processors and with adequate maintenance and/or
management. it would ameliorate the difficulties involved in oil bean
processing and, therefore boost the farmers production, with slicing efficiency
of 40.45.
