HYGIENIC AUTOMATED FOOD PROCESSING MACHINE (HAFPM) USING PNEUMATICS THROUGH PLC

The customary technique for cooking is non-hygienic and requires a lot of labor. Gazing from vegetables washing/ cutting to flushing of rice. We are not guaranteed of same taste in manual cooking process. This work was taken up with a view to enhance the present arrangement of nourishment handling and keeping up a hygienic situation with same taste every time as made by the manual procedure. In the cooking process, all the vegetables should be washed, sliced and have to be mixed with the ingredients along with the oil at exact time in required proportion to get vegetable curries. If the same process has to be carried out for meat items, instead of vegetables meat can be used as the product. Rice should be washed and cooked for the predefined time to get plain boiled rice. If required the above two processes can be carried out in sequence to get different variety of rice items. The Programmable Logic Controller strategy implementations for a control task closely follow the development of an algorithm and produce the solution in a
finite number of steps.
