Blade
Three types of blades, such as Chain blade,
Hammer blade, Round blade and Lobe blade, will be
used in the study. All blades will be made up of
stainless-steel to avoid rusting and contamination of
samples.
Spiral Blade
The spiral blade which measures 8cm in
diameter and each blade has 4cmx3.4cm
and the distance of the blades between
each other is 6cm.
Lobe Blade
The lobe blade which the radius is
measured 5.3cm and each blade is
measure 4cmx4cm while the distance of
blade from each other is 6cm
Chain Blade
The chain blade with the radius of 4cm
and the distance of each blade is 3cm.
Stand
The stand is made up of stainless foundation,
angle and flat bars to support the motor which
has length of 46cmx55.5cm, height of 39cm and
a width of 76x76cm. The tray is made up of
aluminium is measured 38.4cm by height and
27.5 by width.

Collection of Sample
Different sample such as peanuts, garlic and
peanuts were bought at Guimba Public Market
Preparation of sample
The collected sample were air dried for 16
hours to meet the moisture content that the
machine needed to grind it easily
Feeding into the machine
The air-dried samples were put into the
machine’s inlet for it to be grinded to its
different sizes accordingly.
Data Analysis
The consumed time in grinding the
samples will be recorded in unit of seconds
(s). The quality of the finish product
characterized by fine, granules and
powdered by its texture.
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
