In general, the design of the young coconut peeler machine is to use an induction motor that still uses a manual system to turn the tool on and off, so it is not efficient in the production process of peeling young coconut. The speed of the induction motor can be adjusted by changing the frequency, therefore a Variable Speed Drive (VSD) is needed which aims to regulate the rotational speed of the induction motor. As the controller of the Variable Speed Drive (VSD), the compiler uses a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC). From the description of the background above, a young coconut peeler based on PLC and HMI was designed. This system uses PLC control as a control for variations in the rotation speed of the motor, so that the rotation of the induction motor can be controlled as needed, in this tool an HMI system is applied which functions as an interface display from the operator to the peeler. In this study using 4 stages, namely (1) a needs survey, (2) designing (3) prototypes, (4) testing prototypes. In the trial results, the simulation of the coconut peeler design went well by using low, medium, high speed variations using the human marchine interface as the display of the variable speed button, while the PLC as the control machine.)
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
