Design of ‘ready-to-pack’ deep frying machine

Abstract

Food processing by applying high temperatures can eliminate most microbes and inactivate enzymes that can cause spoilage. Food processing tools and machines have an important role to provide better quality results and carried out more efficiently and effectively. This study aimed to obtain and analyze data also to create design documentation for a ‘readyto-pack’ deep frying machine. Data were collected by means of observation, interviews, and documentations. Data analysis was carried out by processing the collected data with mathematical calculations. The design documentation process was done using Solidworkss software. This ‘ready-to-pack’ deep frying machine had been successfully designed and was expected to facilitate the frying process and simultaneously proceed with the spinning process. This machine was designed to use a 0.373 kW motor, constructed from stainless steel and angle bars and hollows. The analysis results of the shaft planning data at a minimum diameter of 9.06 mm and the use of 25 mm-diameter shaft were declared safe with a stress analysis on the frame of 1.065 x 107 N/m2 which was still below its maximum stress. Therefore, the machine could be constructed based on this design and analysis
