Abstract

FEBRINA MEDYANTI BR SINAGA:Design of Coconut MilkExtractor with Screw Press System, Supervised by ACHWIL PUTRA MUNIR and SAIPUL BAHRI DAULAY. Until now,obtain coconut milk was still obtain using conventional method which is handpressed. Later on, manual coconut milk extractor is develop using hydrolic press system. With the development of science and technology in this modern age, people trying to create or make a new, more efficient and practical equipment.Therefore, in this research, the author tried to ease theextraction of coconut milk by designing coconut milk extractor with screw press system which has larger capacity which be more effective and efficient in coconut extraction. The coconut milk extractorworked by enter shredded coconut into hopper then shredded coconut iscarried toward tubular filtercontained screw press. After that the milk is produced and the dregs out separately.The results showed that the effective capacity of the equipment was 11,25 kg/hour. Primary cost was Rp. 787,022/Kg for the first year, Rp. 792,205/Kg for the second year, Rp. 797,777/Kg for the third year, Rp. 803,769/Kg for the fourth year, and Rp. 810,204/Kg for the fifth year. BEP was 490Kg in the first year, 516 Kg in the second year, 544Kg in the third year, 575Kg in the fourth year and 608Kg in the fifth year. The IRR was 47,46%
