Diseño y construcción de una máquina procesadora de alimentos para la fundación niños con futuro

Abstract

In the present project, the design, construction and implementation of a food processing machine was carried out, which will be focused on the benefit of children with scarce resources that are in the foundation "Niños con Futuro". The prototype employs the use of industrial components to efficiently and effectively produce the products that will be used to feed underprivileged children. The food will be processed by machines that are in continuous motion thanks to independent motors connected to shafts that generate the necessary torque to grind or cut the food to be used. The design was carried out based on a study of the traditional food slicing and grinding process, considering the conditions and types of food involved. This study determined the feasibility of implementing the design. Then, we proceeded with the design of each of the parts that will make up the machine using SolidWorks CAD-CAM design software. In addition, the process of selecting the necessary electrical components was evaluated, making sure that they were readily available in the local market.
