UJI KINERJA MESIN PENCACAH DENGAN PENAMBAHAN MESIN PIN MILL UNTUK PENCACAHAN PELEPAH KELAPA SAWIT
Daftar Isi:
- The objective of this research was to find out the performance of combination machine of circular saw chopper and pin mill machine using oil palm midrib as material test. The research used descriptive method with data presentation in form of tables and graphs. Data generated was primary data from direct measurement on combination machine for organic chopper. The observed parameters were effective capacity of chopper combination machine and pin mill, fuel consumption, and size of chopping result. The result showed that the average capacity of chopper combination machine and pin mill was 6.5 kg/hour, and the average fuel consumption was 0.34l/hour. The average percentage of chopping result that passed of 9 mesh using the smallest filter was 473.6 g or 71%, higher than previous research before modification which was 34.61% and the average chopping yield was abaut 665.2 g or 82.72%.
