Description
Summary:The study presented in this thesis is regarding on the conceptual design of the grater machine which meant to shred food wastes into small and fine size particle. This study will focus on the waste management factor of the food waste produced in the home kitchen. A study is conducted to comparing the most suitable material and geometry shape of the grating blades by comparing with similar existing devices in the market. The chosen material and blades design are to be evaluated for its characteristics and performance by using the FEM method. The analysis are taking all the constraints regarding the design as well as its advantages are to be considering in designing a new grating blades for the optimum end product making. This design derived through in the consideration for the home application rather than domestic use. This bring the meaning that the compact and small size design. With the detail evaluation of the stress reaction on the blades to provide the safety and sustainability factor of the device as well as the people that is using the device.
