Design and Fabrication Of Dal Milling Machine

Mechanical Engineering

We know that pulses are necessary component of the human diet in world wide. In our country, approximately 13 million tons of pulses are produced annually and more than 70 % of these pulses are processed by dal mill. The Dal milling industry is one of the major growing industries. The demand of dal is growing day by day hence to meet this demand processing methods has been changed. Various conventional methods are adopted for milling and many machines are available but they are very huge and space consuming. For subsistence farmers cost of milling is unaffordable. A low cost milling machine can be used in dal mills which would help to reduce the cost. Such a convenient and low cost dal milling machine is being represented by us which will be also useful for subsistence farmers. Complete removal of the husk with less generation of powder and broken husks are the main characteristics of milling. Many numbers of trails are undertaken for milling to get optimum response. To increase its efficiency without compromising its parameters such as grinder speed, grit size, feed rate is an important aspect needed in milling industry. Hence we are representing such a dal mill which is compact in size and gives a better output rate than other systems.
