Design and Construction of a Batch Cassava Peeling Machine
This work focused on the design and construction of a batch cassava peeling machine able to handle one diametric size of cassava tubers. The principle of abrasive peeling using a stationary outer abrasive drum and a rotating inner abrasive drum was used based on a batch capacity of 8.5 kg and cut tuber lengths of 200mm and diameters of 90mm. An average peeling efficiency recorded was 70.45 ...
