Abstract

This paper presents a new design and development of an autonomous traditional pastry batter (“Kuih Bahulu”) dispenser. Kuih bahulu is a traditional cake or snack that is typically baked in brass moulds of varying sizes and shapes. Making "kuih bahulu" may seem simple, but the manual production system adds labour and time, making them expensive. Due to the manual manufacturing process, the shape, size, and aesthetic of the product are not always to the customer’s liking. The development adheres to a standardized engineering design procedure. Then, software development and testing were conducted to determine which hardware components could be utilized for this project with the greatest efficiency. An Arduino UNO board was used to command the entire control system and perform the automatic functions of the machine. This project also investigates the performance of autonomous kuih bahu machine operations so that periodic enhancements can be made. Based on the analysis and result, this machine is able to produce minimum time taken of 45.50 seconds per mouldings filled. The machine power output is measured to be at 30.13W at its maximum output with 50% motor speed. This machine is certain to be a brilliant idea that will assist individuals in enhancing their lives and marketing strategies.
