Modeling and simulation of belt bucket elevator head shaft for safe life operation.

This research paper presents a step by step conceptual design and life prediction approach for the design, modeling and simulation of head shaft of a belt bucket elevator, to be used for conveying grains to a height of 33.5 m and at the rate of 200 tons/h. output.

Steel work design, production and analysis of a fish feed mixing machine.

As Nigeria props up her desire to boost local manufacturing and production industries, the need for proper design of an efficient and reliable fish feed mixing machine for safe and economic use cannot be overemphasized, as an efficient and reliable machine would minimize deterioration and losses during production to deliver good quality products (fish feeds) obtainable at the lowest production cost as well as the shortest production time. A blade-type fish feed mixer has been designed and fabricated. The mixer runs with a 1.

Design and construction of a double actuated mechanical speed breaker electricity generator.

The economy runs on energy and quest for development means that more energy is needed. Statistics show that the majority of energy comes from burning fossil fuels, and they pollute our environment. This work is aimed at producing a mechanical speed breaker electricity generator that operates on two actuating strokes.

Steel work design and analysis of a 40-ton constant temperature hydraulic press.

This study presented the analyses of the design and construction of a motorized 40-ton constant temperature hydraulic press, for constant temperature compression purposes of fibre matrices. Standard design considerations and calculations were done to ensure the selection of effective and efficient components for the development of the machine. The construction of the machine involved standard manufacturing processes which involved marking out, cutting, drilling, machining and welding processes.

Design and production of a fish feed pelletizing machine.

Animal feeds contributes to a greater percentage of the cost of production of livestock. For the increment in productivity and profit, farmers are advised to produce their feed themselves to reduce the cost of production. This work is aimed at producing a simple single unit fish feed pelletizer at a lost cost for peasant farmers.
