 ABSTRACT
Sand sieving machine has the function to sieve sand
and stone that mixed together. The sand and the stone
cannot process further if they mix. Thus, this machine will
help operator work which was doing sieve with no machine
mechanism. With machine mechanism driven by motor
power will reduce the time to sieve.
The results of this design obtained the best concept of
sand sieving machine in terms of efficiency, energy, and
flexibility. From this paper, it can be concluded that the
design of this sand sieve will environmentally friendly and
bring many benefits, is positive and very good to continue.

 INTRODUCTION
 Sand is a basic element of every constructional work, sands need to
be separated from unwanted particles, stones and other large
particles before it is put to use as it usually comes in mixture.
 Therefore, sands need to be screened properly for various stages of
construction.
 So the sand sieving machine can be used to screen sand properly as
they are comfortable and easy to use.
 Besides this, there are many designs such as rotatory sand screening
machine, vibratory sand screening machine, sand screening cum
washing machine.
OBJECTVES
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES
 To design and fabricate reciprocating sand sieving machine
which separates sand from mixture.

 To replace traditional method of using hand as it is time

consuming.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES
 To learn slider crank mechanism mechanism.

 To develop interpersonal skills and to be familiar with the tools

and process used in mechanical workshop.

 To learn how to arrange time and budget.

 METHODS OF SAND SIEVING
 The figure 1 below shows the process been use by people before to
sieve and collect the sand they wanted. This process sieves the sand
into it size depending on the size of the net been used.

Figure 1:Traditional Sieving Method

 Figure 2 show modified sieving method. It uses handle to rotate
and make the process sieving more efficient mainly use in small,
manufactured process such as in lab.

Figure 2:Hand Operated Rotatory Sieve

 Nowadays it has been upgrade using motor to replace the human
power which is shown by figure 3.

 Since this machine is important in our daily life it has been

upgrade one by one and been marked almost all over the world.

 WORKING PRINCIPLE
 When the power is supplied to the motor, the electrical energy is
converted into mechanical energy i.e rotatory motion.

 This rotatory motion of the motor shaft can be converted into

reciprocating motion by means of crank and connecting rod i.e by
using slider crank mechanism.

 The reciprocating motion can be thus transferred to sleeve which is

mounted on the frame of the machine by means of ball bearings.

 And thus due to the reciprocating motion i.e to and fro motion
sieving of the sand is achieved.
WORKING
 SLIDER CRANK MECHANISM
 Slider-crank Mechanism is an arrangement of mechanical parts
designed to convert straight line motion to rotary motion, as in a
reciprocating piston engine, or it is used to convert rotary motion to
straight line motion as in a reciprocating pump.
MATERIALS USED
The main components of the sand sieving machine are
Motor
Sieve net
Crank
Connecting rod
Framing

MOTOR
The motor that converts the alternating current into mechanical power by
using an electromagnetic induction phenomenon is called an AC motor. This
motor is driven by an alternating current. The stator and the rotor are the two
most important parts of the AC motors.
 We are using motor of power 220V to operate the machine.

SIEVE NET

For screening process different

methods is practice from the very past,
almost every procedure includes mesh or
net of small holes (varying diameter as
how fine the sand is required).
CRANK
A crank is an arm attached at a right angle to a rotating shaft by which
circular motion is imparted to or received from the shaft. When combined with
a connecting rod, it can be used to convert circular motion into reciprocating
motion, or vice versa.

CONNECTING ROD
A connecting rod is the part of a

CRA
D
piston engine which connects the RO

NK
G
ECTIN
piston engine which connects the NN
CO

piston to the crankshaft. Together

with the crank, the connecting rod
converts the reciprocating motion of
the piston into the rotation of the
crankshaft.
FRAMING

Frame provides structural integrity and stability of a machine. Frame have

required efficiency to hold all the loads of machine parts. Mild steel is used for
the framework of our machine
ADVANTAGES
 Easily operated.

 Simple construction.

 Low cost.

 unskilled person can also work on this machine.

 It is more useful in small scale industries.

 It is easy to portable.
 LIMITATIONS

 For the finer sand repeated screening process is required which is

tedious.

 Refining more amount will consume time as it can very less load.
CONCLUSION
 Concluding the project up to now after research four different
types of sieving machine was conceptualized to select the best
considering every factor to make it more efficient, portable and
easily operable.
 Then the required materials were selected by market .

 This report also includes to do method of construction and

working of sand sieving machine.
 According to calculations and assumptions, this type of sieving
machine will be efficient and easily operable, which can help
society learn new way of sieving sand.
