Agriculture is the backbone of India’s economy. Application of technological innovation to improve the productivity in agricultural activities is a continuous process. Nowadays, agriculture related engineering projects have gained a lot of scope because of the need and usefulness in uplifting the quality of work. Pepper separator machine is an agriculture related project for facilitating efficient separation of pepper berries from its spikes. There are many problems associated with existing design of pepper separator machine like high cost, low efficiency, low capacity, and more processing time. One of the main disadvantages of the existing machine is that they damage the berries because of the use big metallic parts in them. To address this problem an attempt was made to replace some of the big metallic parts by small metallic parts and automate separation of pepper. Thus, pepper would get threshed between the stationary and rotary conveyer and get separated without damage.
