Abstract

Belacan is a food product that is widely used in Malaysia as a seasoning in cooking and can be found in various shapes and sizes. However, the process of packing belacan is hard work and very tiring. Therefore, this project proposes the development of a portable and automatic Belacan round -shaped packaging machine system that can simplify the packaging process. There are three phase of this project that are processed. Firstly, to develop mechanical system for automated portable round shape belacan packaging machine. Next, to develop control system for the machine. Lastly, is to analysis the system performance of the machine. The key component of this concept is that the engine gear is strong enough to drive the machine in a spherical shape. Other components include plumbing rods, round moulds, plumbing acid batteries, and even ultrasound equipment. The user of this machine has to place the belacan solely into a circular mould and the machine can detect the belacan placed in the mould and then the machine can create the belacan in the form of a linear movement to form the belacan. The belacan is successfully moulded into a circular and will be available for sale to clients following this process.
