Project Summary

Groundnut is grown on small scale by farmers in developing countries like India. Lack of groundnut processing machines at affordable cost, especially groundnut Sheller, is a major problem of groundnut production. Numbers of groundnut Sheller machines are available in the market but they are large in size, costly and not suitable for domestic applications, they are best suitable for industrial applications where mass production is required. Hence it is essential to design and fabricate a portable groundnut sheller machine for domestic application. This paper describes about the design of various components of groundnut Sheller machine. Hence in this design of various parts are necessary, and design of various parts due to which the design quality of those parts will be improved. Overall, this project involves processes like design, fabrication and assembling of different components etc.

Project Objectives

• The main and basic objective is to make low cost groundnut shelling machine.
•  Another thing is that to shell maximum possible groundnut in shortest possible time.
• The machine should not damage the peanuts in according to earn profit.
• The cost of a machine should be affordable to the farmers.
• Space occupied by the machine should not be so large. It should be kept within the land.
• The machine should not have excessive weight. It should be such that it can be easily portable.

Project Implementation Method

The machine is operated with help of the Electric Motor which is connected to the external power supply. As power supplied to motor it rotates the roller. Groundnuts are supplied in crushing chamber through hopper and they get crushed between Semicircular net and the roller.Now we can collect both the cover of the groundnut and peanuts. These are passed in front of the fan so that shells are blown away due to light weight and peanuts falls down directly.

Benefits of the Project

• Shelling time will be less
• Efficient work is done by using machine
• Limited number of labours are required
• Cost of shelling is comparably less as manual shelling

Technical Details of Final Deliverable

In order to carry out this project to ensure that what are needs to do. This project involves the process of designing the different parts of this shelling machine considering forces and ergonomic factor for people to use. This project is mainly about generating a new concept of groundnut shell (crush) that would make easier to bring anywhere and easier to crush groundnut. After the design has completed, it was transformed to its real product where the design is used for guidelin
