A Design of Automatic Meat Slicing Machine
Get PDFThe main purpose of the project is to design an automatic machine to slice chicken meat which is to automate the conventional chicken meat slicing method to modern method. BABARITTOS DELIGHT, it supplies Tortillas Wrap to the popular trend of Food & Beverage (F&B) business called Food Truck. The main ingredient of Burritos is slices of boneless chicken meat, where each slice is approximately 5 mm thick. Conventionally, the company practice a manual cutting process; which uses a normal cutting knife with manual human labour causing the truncating production rate and thickness of the meat; while the demands of the Burritos increases by days. This method requires 3 to 4 workers and one and half hour to cut the 30 kg boneless chicken meat to be cut into roughly 5 mm per slice. The main objective of this project is to design an automatic meat slicing machine to increase the production rate of the sliced meat and in the same time to reduce the number of workers in slicing station. The machine only required one worker to operate and the output can be up to 30kg per 30 minutes which almost triple the quantity of output and labour cost saving. Meanwhile the quality of the sliced meat is enhanced as most of the sliced meat is uniformly 5mm thick. The concept of the design is to cut the meat using several circular cutting blades, where the chicken is placed on the moving conveyor and finally will drop into a sterile tray

Get PDFCurrently, Malaysia has more than 600 higher education institutes that offers hundreds of courses for secondary school leavers. This scenario however, has led to issues such as competition on student’s enrollment. Since its establishment in 2001, aside from full-time program for SPM leavers, Community College has also offers short courses under Lifelong Learning Department. Selandar Community College has been facing an enrollment issues since its operation 15 years ago. Qualitative approach through document analysis which focuses on secondary data is being used in this study. KKSL 2017’s enrollment data and short courses data are being analyze descriptively using Full Time Equivalent Students (FTES) formula. The purpose of this study is to identify how far the equivalent value of the short courses participants helps in increasing the full-time student\u27s enrollment at KKSL. Result of the calculation using the FTES formula shows that the equivalent value obtained is 24 students. Without the equivalent value, the percentage of KKSL student’s enrollment was at 80%, which has not reached targeted KPI being set by JPPKK. However, after adding up the equivalent value, the total percentage has increase to 80.83% which accomplishes the targeted KPI. In conclusion, the implementation of FTES formula to calculate the equivalent value of short courses participants can assist in achieving full-time student’s enrollment at KKSL. The result of this study provide opportunities for KKSL’s management to plan and implement a more systematic short courses in order to help achieve targeted KPI in full-time student\u27s enrollment

Shear Properties of Woven and Chopped Strand Mat Laminated Composite by Arcan Test Method
Get PDFThe woven and chopped strand mat (CSM) are two types of GFRP (Glass-Fiber Reinforced Polymer) manufacture glass fabrics used in laminated composite. The main purpose when producing GFRP is to produce the materials that can process the best mechanical properties to suit with a certain condition. There are many tests which can be used in order to determine GFRP’s mechanical properties. Arcan Test Method is the most suitable test for determining shear stress in GFRP. Based on the past experiment, the pure shear stresses occur at the significant area was proven and the test result is reliable. Factors that affected the GFRP shear stress are forms and orientation of the fibers. Besides that, volume fractions of fibers, Vf can also affect the shear stress in the materials. The stress will be higher when the load is being applied to the fiber direction and it will be lower at the transverse direction. Furthermore, the shear strength will be increased with the fiber volume fractions increment. Uniform shear strain, γ occur at the significant area where strain at (+45° and -45°) direction is uniform. Therefore, Arcan Test Method can be used to determine the shear stress of different fiber form s and fiber volume factions for GFRP materials
