| dc.description.abstract | UNTUNG UTOYO : Test Different Diameter Pulleys on the Shrimp Paste Molder,
supervised by SAIPUL BAHRI DAULAY and AINUN ROHANAH.
Shrimp paste molder that had been designed previously was not effective
in process, so the author suspect that the performance of the machine will be
better if pulley with right diameters is used. The research’s purpose is to examine
the effect of various pulley diameter on the effective capacity, yield, and the
percentage of left material of the shrimp paste molder. This research was
conducted in November 2015 to January 2016 in the Laboratory of Agricultural
Engineering, Faculty of Agriculture, University of North Sumatra, Medan. The
parameters observed were effective capacity, yield and the percentage of left
material on the shrimp paste molder. The result shows that the highest effective
capacity was 106,41 kg/hour at treatment D1 with 2 inch pulley diameter, the
highest yield was treatment D1with 2 inch pulley diameter (66,6%), and the
percentage of material left behind was the lowest at treatment of D1 with 2 inch
pulley diameter (33,4%). From Duncan Multiple Range Tests it was found that the
pulley diameter had highly significant effect on the effective capacity and had
significant effect on yield and percentage of material left behind. | en_US |
