UJI VARIASI BENTUK MATA PISAU PADA ALAT PENGUPAS SABUT KELAPA MEKANIS
ABSTRACT: This research was
done to test the variant of the knife edge shape on the effective capacity of
the equipment, percentage of
material unpeeled, and
fuel consumption on
mechanical coconut peeler.
This research was
using non factorial completely randomized
design. It was
found that the
effective capacity of
the equipment, percentage
of material unpeeled, and
fuel consumption were
231.24 unit hour-1,
6,67%, and 2.37
litre hour-1 respectively
triangle knife edge, 301.97 unit/hour, 13.33%, and 2.62
litre/hour respectively cone knife edge, and 192.48 unit hour-1, 13.33% and
1.85 litre hour-1 respectively nail knife edge. The results showed that the
variant of knife edge had significant effect on the effective capacity and fuel
consumption and had no effect on the percentage of material unpeeled.
Key words: knife edge, peeler,
coconut
