Abstract: A Coconut pallet is a type of pallet which is made of waste coconut husk and used in transporting heavy materials. Coconut pallets are widely used for transporting materials and keeping heavy materials in the
industries such as iron, copper, tin. However, the design of coconut pallet and hydraulic press machine is complicated by the large number of geometries. According to Research, coconut pallet is natural and biodegradable and
recycled which can be used for transporting material instead of using wooden pallets. In this study, the focus is on the research and study of pallets of coconut and wooden especially waste coconut husk. We used SolidWorks for the
Simulation. The results shows that the Coconut pallet is the best performing pallet that can be used in companies.

Introduction: Simulated Designs:

A pallet is a storing container for heavy materials in Industries
which provides services such as shipping, storing. To minimize
the need of wooden pallets, coconut pallet is the key for the
sustainable transporting material, which is made of coconut husk.
In the existing world of increasing mobility and growing trade,
material and commodities need to be transported safely across
various sectors of the economy, from suppliers to manufacturers,
from manufacturers to warehouses, from warehouses to retailers,
and finally to consumers. Coco Pallets are fully bio-based and Stresses in the column Total deformation in Stress in Movable Deformation in
the column Pattern Movable Pattern Total Stress in the assembly Total deformation in the assembly
they contain natural fibers and they are stronger and lighter,
cheaper, they are fire-retardant, easier to stack and having
adjusted design, so they take up less space. Analysis of Column (pillar) Analysis of Movable pattern Analysis of 4 – Type assembly

Conclusion:
In this project, the 4-Column hydraulic press machine is Designed and
Analyze with standard, used for compressive pressing operation in sheet
metal industries where the deformation of the press should be
permissible. To maintain close tolerance and increase productivity
pressing accuracy plays an important role. It is a multi-purpose machine
which is used for performing pressing and forging tasks by changing the
die for different operation like sheet metal, blanking, bending etc.
Future scope:
Thus, here a hydraulic system is used to develop a press, it will be useful
for production of Pallets. This may increase the productivity and
accuracy of the production. One can automate the feeding of workpiece
and make the complete Blanking machine.
