- Abstract
Flouring is one of the important stages in the processing of agricultural products in the post-harvest processing industry. One of the machines that is often used for the flouring process is a hammer mill model flouring machine. The performance of this machine is often needed for various work variations, such as the size of the particles produced, the speed of the rotor rotation, and the condition of the hammer mill blade. This article aims to design a hammer mill model flouring machine to improve performance. This study was conducted by optimizing several aspects, such as the way the hammer works, the number of hammer shafts, and the hammer model used. The results of the study showed that the performance of the flouring machine can be achieved by using a 1,4 hp electric motor-driven hammer mill model with 4 hammer shafts with 24 hammer blades at 11,2 kg/hour, which directly affects the efficiency of the flouring process and the quality of the products produced. This study provides an important contribution to the development of more efficient and environmentally friendly flouring machines and can be applied in the small food and agricultural processing industry.
