Modifikasi Mesin Peniris Minyak Sistim Tabung

Abstract

The process of oil slicing is one process that can affect the oil content of the frying results. The remaining oil in fried foods when stored for a long time will cause a rancid odor. If consumed directly it will increase cholesterol levels. There are still many oil draining activities on the SME scale that still use traditional methods, namely by draining on the cage. In the previous study, a tube system slicing machine had been made with unhygienic washing machine scraping material. Existing tools can be upgraded by increasing the tube diameter. The research was carried out in several stages, namely: starting with modifying the drain tube, making a collection tube, making an oil outlet, making a frame and mounting an electric motor, making a transmission system, making an electrical system, assembling all the hardware and components. , testing the functional components, measuring the tube rotation of the drainer and testing the performance of the engine that was constructed. The tube was made with a diameter of 30, 35 and 40 cm. The cutting machine can function properly. The stability of the 40 cm diameter tube is better. The higher the tube the more unstable. From the results of testing to drain the 30-diameter diameter cassava chips can within 5 minutes reduce the oil content to 2.16%. Peniris diameter 35 cm 2.28%, peniris diameter 40 cm 2.35%.
