MAGANES, JULIUS R.and PUNZALAN, PAUL JASMIN R., Development of an Automated Charcoal Briquette Maker. Undergraduate Design Project. Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering. Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite. December 2018, Adviser: Mr. Bienvenido Sarmiento Jr. The study, development of an automated charcoal briquette maker was designed and constructed at Alfonso and Mendez, Cavite from September 2017 to November 2018. This was tested and evaluated at the Cavite State University Main Campus, Engineering Science (ES) Building on second week of November 2018. The design project was conducted to develop an automated charcoal briquette maker. Specifically, it aimed to design and develop a small-scale machine controlled by a micro-controller based circuit to provide an alternative for the manual mixing and presser machine. The automated charcoal briquette maker started its process by using a push button. The dispensers released a right amount of raw materials in the mixing chamber, in which the powder and liquid ingredients was mixed thoroughly. Afterwards, the mixer discharged its content and transferred to the extruder where the temperature was required to maintain. The mixture in the cylindrical barrel was cooked and compressed through the nozzle. The knife blade used to cut the output from extruder to produced cylindrical briquettes with a concentric hole.
