Abstract: VALDEZ, RENDALE B. Design, Construction and Evaluation of a Small-Scale Tin Can Roller Compactor. Undergraduate Thesis.Bachelor of Science in Agricultural Engineering.Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite. May 2017. Adviser: Dr. Marilyn M.Escobar. A tin can roller compactor was developed and evaluated at Cavite State University-Main Campus in Indang, Cavite. The principal components of the machine include the rollers, hopper, frame assembly, inclined plane, discharge chute, two- horsepower single phase induction motor as prime mover, belts and pulleys. This study was experimental in nature and the fabricated machine was a prototype which will serve as a model for the construction of a larger machine for similar purposes. The technical performance of the machine was evaluated in terms of compacting rate and compacting efficiency. The theoretical speed of the rollers ranged from 1,160-1,450 rpm but the actual speed ranged from 1,009-1,239 rpm. Highest compacting rate was recorded at 121.19 kg/hr. The compacting efficiency was highest at 89.39 percent. The average noise level of the machine observed was 92.8 db without load and 116.0 db with load. The volume reduction in compacted tin cans was 69.43 percent. The total cost of the machine is P 35,343.00.

A tin can roller compactor was developed and evaluated at Cavite State University-Main Campus in Indang, Cavite. The principal components of the machine include the rollers, hopper, frame assembly, inclined plane, discharge chute, two- horsepower single phase induction motor as prime mover, belts and pulleys.

This study was experimental in nature and the fabricated machine was a prototype which will serve as a model for the construction of a larger machine for similar purposes.

The technical performance of the machine was evaluated in terms of compacting rate and compacting efficiency.

The theoretical speed of the rollers ranged from 1,160-1,450 rpm but the actual speed ranged from 1,009-1,239 rpm. Highest compacting rate was recorded at 121.19 kg/hr. The compacting efficiency was highest at 89.39 percent. The average noise level of the machine observed was 92.8 db without load and 116.0 db with load. The volume reduction in compacted tin cans was 69.43 percent.

The total cost of the machine is P 35,343.00.
