Abstract

The main focus in this project is to design an efficient mechanism/machine that is able to extract sugar cane juice. The machine must be fully operated by only mechanical power and no external force is added in. All the necessary information is gathered by constructing the literature study. After that, morphology chart is created. By this, ten conceptual designs are generated with the requirement of the engineering design specifications. Among them, one of the conceptual designs is chosen for the best design after evaluation by using the concept scoring matrix, and, all the orientation and configuration of the parts of the machine will be justified. Since the machine is designed to be fully operated mechanically, it is very important to make sure that the force required for operating the machine is as less as possible, and hence, the calculations regarding the force to operating the gears are necessary to be carried out. Similarly, calculations will be done on the other mechanical parts such as shafts and bearings as well. Besides, CAE analysis will be emphasized on the shafts in order to obtain the desire safety factor after the construction of the drawing of the best design chosen. This will be followed by conducting the simulations and at the same time analysis is proceeding. After that, selection of the standard parts will be carried on and, finally, EBOM of the product will be constructed and product costing will be calculated.
