MECHANISATION VS AUTOMATION

Mechanisation: Mechanisation saves the use of human muscle Mechanisation displaces Physical Labour Replacement of unskilled/semiskilled human power e.g: Shelling machines, Peeling machines, Graders, Sizers, Sorters Automation: Automation saves the use of human judgement Automation displaces mental labour Replacement of skilled/supervisory human power

25 January, 2019

Replacement of skilled/supervisory human power e.g: Auto Thermal Control, Auto Moisture Control, Auto humidity Control, Auto filling or Stacking or feeding activities, Auto Positioning of RCN / Kernel, Auto rework

WHY AUTOMATION?

Minimises the workforce < 1 worker per bag Minimises the processing time 3-5 days Consistency in Processing Quality Less human intervention & Microbes issues Less human intervention & Microbes issues Minimises infestation risk No Jute bag Concept in process lines Attempt towards Crates Free Plants / Silo based plants Attempt towards above the ground process Minimises interest on working capital

25 January, 2019

Minimises interest on working capital Easy maintenance of GMP Move towards Continuous Process from Batch Process

PREREQUISITES FOR AUTOMATION

  • Size & Scale of the Plant.(Medium to large)
  • Plant Location & Skill availability
  • Effective spares management
  • Effective spares management
  • Effective After Sales Service
  • Strong Technical & maintenance skill requirement
  • Multiple parameters for multiple origins
  • Medium to High Investment
  • Aim to maintain Processing Cost lowest

25 January, 2019

  • Aim to maintain Processing Cost lowest
  • Linear and visual flow
  • Manual Mode & Interface at every level
  • Low Oil Contamination

Skill Management in Mech/Automation

Most

  • f

the Processors use to get excited with mechanisation output for first 6-8 months and started complaining there after on the performance of the equipment!!! What is the reason? equipment!!! What is the reason? “Skill Management to handle mechanical installation is quite different than manual processing!!!” >Strong Technical Teams/ Management efforts required!

25 January, 2019

>Strong Technical Teams/ Management efforts required! >We can’t handle 450 HP mechanical Plants in the same way like 25 HP manual Plants! >Preventive/Predictive/Creative Maintenances are critical!

Fundamentals for Plant Design

 Spend more time for Plant Design  Design the process line first & work on civil structural later later  Go for turnkey solutions instead bits & pieces  Involve in key line/CAD drawings, visualise on 3D  Prefer rugged machinery than delicate equipment  Make sure use SS at all contact points  Ensure strong structural to align technology changes  Avoid Epoxy flooring for trolley movement

25 January, 2019

 Avoid Epoxy flooring for trolley movement  HACCP based designs & maximum linear flow concepts  Cross ventilation / low sweat
