PRESENTATION
Automatic Honey Extractor

INTRODUCTION
We are propose to make the Automatic Honey
Extractor Machine, we are work very hard to prepare
this Automatic Honey Extractor machine with various
germinated the idea of my own group members.
This machine uses the principle of centrifugal force
to release the honey from the honeycomb.
The Automated Honey Extractor is meant to increase
the number of hobbyist beekeepers and small
beekeeping businesses and as a result stimulate the
globally decreasing population of honeybees which
play an indispensable role in agriculture (honeybees
play a major role in pollinating crops) and more.

Automatic honey extractor

Sooner or later even a hobbyist beekeeper

will consider the purchase of a honey
extractor. These gadgets are well worth the
investment. before I realized the a manual
extractor is a real bottle neck when
harvesting honey, particularly if you have or think you might have - more than a
couple of hives. honey extractor stand can
be inexpensively built in your work shop in
just a few hours and it will give good service.

OBJECTIVE
Design and build a high performance automated honey
extractor.
Optimize and decrease time consumption of the honey
extraction process.

PROBLEM STATEMENT

Waste of time by using manual method.

More time consuming on manual method is total loss of our

valuable time. If the workers unable to brush the bees as
soon as possible of the comb, it can attack the workers

Occur error due to human.

Manual extracting is difficult when the honey comb is full of

bees. Sometimes the workers are not giving much important
on their safety. They are not wearing the smoke during take
the honey comb from the trees. And also they can injure
their hand when removing the cap by using hot knife or
electronic knife.

PROJECT SCOPE

The size of the honey holder is 20x17.

The honey holder can hold about 2.5kg of
honey.
The motor used is electrical DC motor.
The minimum and maximum rotation
spinning speed of the motor is 900-1100
RPM.

Advantage

Maintenance
It is an economical system that requires
very less maintenance as compared to
conventional system as it has no
complicated circuits and delicate
mechanisms. This saves the additional
maintenance costIt does no need a
special place for uncapping and
extracting, and also for the
corresponding implements

Cost

The advantage of the automatic honey

extractor is it has very low cost than
the conventional one available in
markets.
It cost around RM700.

Construction

The construction of a automatic honey

extractor is very simple as it requires
only a few components. The circuit
involved is also relatively simpler.

LITERATURE REVIEW
A literature review must do these things:
Be organized around and related directly to
the thesis or research question we are
developing.
Synthesize results into a summary of what
is and is not known.
Identify areas of controversy in the
literature.
Formulate questions that need further
research

Bearing

Abearingis amachine elementthat constrains

relative motion to only the desired motion, and
reduces friction betweenmoving parts.

Spinning Mechanism

The spinning mechanism, drives the rotation

of the frame basket and honey combs. The
motion is transferred to the basket through
a belt drive and friction-disk drive to convert
horizontal to vertical rotation.

Honey Extractor Stand

The stand consist of 4 steel and end of

each of the are bend for more stablelity.

Gear

Advantage of gears is that the teeth of a

gear prevent slippage. When two gears
mesh, and one gear is bigger than the
other (even though the size of the teeth
must match), a mechanical advantage is
produced, with therotational speedsand
the torques of the two gears differing in
an inverse relationship.

Flexible shafts

Flexible shafts are made of layers of hightensile wire wound over each other at
opposing pitch angles. When torque is
applied to the flexible shaft, the wire layers
expand or contract depending on the
direction of the rotation.

Flexible shafts are mechanical powertransmission devices used to transmit rotary

motion through bends and curves.
