Abstract

Pineapple peeling device which used for slicing the pineapple to create a cylindrical pulp. The key goal of this research is to implement a pineapple peeler system to overcome the challenges encountered by small and medium-sized businesses, in which the system produced will minimize its time needed for the pineapple operation. From an engineering viewpoint, ergonomic concerns relevant to peeling have been discussed. For this project, the concept of the pineapple peeler has a cylindrical blade being used to strip the pineapple flesh. The benefits of this pineapple peeler established throughout this venture are that it can remove the leaves as well as the core of the pineapple, and also can peel the outer surface of that same pineapple. Before starting the device, the pineapple is installed in the holder of the machine. So, the first cutter is to remove the ends as well as the base of the pineapple. Following that, the pineapple surface can be extracted by using a cylindrical knife. The mechanism within that device has been used to monitor the entire function of the pineapple peeler system and therefore is interfaced with dual pneumatic tubes to operate the tool. The mechanical and electrical elements are the essential parts of this unit.
