- Abstract
Grain grinder technology is very influential in determining the quality of rice produced. To support this potential, various things are taken, one of them is by increasing rice farmers to process their harvests independently in households. This thing must be encouraged so that we can process agricultural commodities in Indonesia by ourselves and provide added value for the welfare of the community, especially rice farmers in Bali. The grain grinding machine that is widely used nowadays is roll type. The purpose of this study is to calculate the efficiency of the grain crusher machine (husker). This research was conducted in several stages including the stage of collecting tools and materials. The parameters for analyzing grind capacity, rice yield were observed for grain weight to be milled, weight of milled rice, and time to grind grain rice into rice. Based on the results of data processing, it was found that the machine grinding capacity was 50 kg / hour, the power of the combustion engine was 5.5 hp of premuim fuel, the sample of rice inpari 43 varieties, the rice yield was 71.2% better at 2925 rpm engine rotation speed, 41.62% stripping efficiency higher when using an engine rotation speed of 2925 rpm. The difference in the used of a manual grind system averages 4.86 kg at 2936 rpm and a mechanical feeder system averages 4.89 kg at 2936 rpm. Economics analysis of used grain grinding machine with a capacity of 50 kg/hour, the price of the machine is IDR 8,500,000.00 per unit within 2 years 4 months the investment costs will be return.
