Abstract

This paper tells us about Design and Analysis of Cocoon Extractor machine. One of the traditional methods for growing cocoon is by using chandrika. This method is widely used in SOUTH INDIA. The removal of cocoon from chandrika is art and it’s a careful practice followed by farmers. During extraction process of cocoon farmers face many problems i.e., labour problem, wearing of bamboo strips due to continuous strips, pricking of bamboo strips into fingers, time management and many such problems. The major problem we are facing while building the machine is that the texture of cocoon is too delicate. To solve these problems, we decided to use air as medium to extract cocoon from chandrika. This can be achieved by vacuum pressure. The basic principle we are using in this machine is vacuum cleaner’s principle. After survey we found that we need high suction pressure to suck the cocoon from the chandrika. We will be using centrifugal impeller to create high suction pressure which is driven by universal DC motor.
