Design and Fabrication of Portable Coconut/Seed Oil Extraction Machine

Abstract

This paper aim on design and fabrication of portable Coconut/Seed oil extraction machine. The machine is light in weight which makes it portable and can be used for small scale industries and for Household oil extraction. Since this machine requires less space to move, it can be used in a more versatile manner as compared to heavy powered machines that are mounted on heavy and bulky industries. This machine can be efficient and easy to operate and maintain. The oil extracted has various applications in food, medicine, and industry. It can be used to extract around 650 to 1300ml in 1 to 2kgs of coconut thus covering more time compared to hydraulic jack machine. Design is made in such a way that easy to assemble and dissemble, it serves the dual use of work and it can be used in a more versatile manner as compared to power machines that are mounted on heavy and bulky industries.
