Abstract
India is second largest producer of fruits and vegetables in the world and is leader in
various fruits and vegetables area and production. Due to perishable nature of horticultural
produce their value addition is the prime necessity to preserve them for long time at the time
of glut and to make them available in off season. Their processing needs advanced
mechanization and new processing methodology to be developed for ease of harvesting,
handling, processing and storage to reduce the human drudgery. India ranks first in the area
under production and productivity of aonla or Indian gooseberry (Emblica officinalis Gaertn).
It belongs to genus Emblica of the family Euphorbiaceae and order Euphorbiales. It is well
known Indian fruit for its medicinal and therapeutic properties from the ancient time in India.
Aonla fruit is perishable and thus needs to be processed after few days of harvesting or else
immediate marketing of raw a fruit is required. Raw aonla fruit is not much acceptable by
consumers because of its high acidic nature and its astringent taste. But the aonla products
like candy, supari, pickle, preserve, Triphala and chavaprash are very famous and have huge
demand in the market because of their health benefits. Wide research has been carried out for
development of equipment and machineries for aonla processing.
In this work, an attempt was made to develop equipment for removing the aonla
stone and slicing pulp for small-scale and household purpose. The capacity of the equipment
was found 12 to 14 kg/h. this capacity of anola slicing and destoning was about 10 times
greater than the manual operation.
It consisted of a hopper, a pneumatic punching machine, a conveying system, and an
electronic control unit in a master frame. A moving circular conveyor disc with holes at the
equal distances designed to convey the fruit to the deseeding position where the fruit platform
was fixed at the disc which also has a center hole. Above the fruit platform, a pneumatic
punching machine with some extra power was fixed concentrically. The seed removing
operation was carried out by a pneumatic type controller which moves the punching plunger
up and down with the help of compressed air. At every punch seed was removed and
collected in the seed collecting tray. Then the deseeded fruit was conveyed to the discharge
end. The effectiveness of the machine and fruit pulp wastage varied with the size of the fruit.

Material and Methods
1 Raw material
Aonla stone remover cum slicing equipment development work was carried out with local market.
2 Design consideration
This section deals with the design and consideration for the designing and development of the aonla stone removing cum pulp slicing equipment cutting equipment and aonla resting seat. The components of the cutting tool are connecting bolt, solid cylinder, penetrating rod, and cutting blade. These were the important component of equipment.
2.1 Connecting bolt: This section deals with the design and consideration for the designing and development of the aonla stone removing cum pulp slicing equipment cutting equipment and aonla resting seat. The components of the cutting tool are connecting bolt, solid cylinder, penetrating rod, and cutting blade. These were the important component of equipment.
2.2 Penetrating rod: The diameter of the penetrating rod depends upon the geometric mean diameter of stone, and the length of the penetrating rod (LR) (eq. 1) depends upon the length of aonla fruit and is as follows:
LR=La+Sr (1)
Where,
LR= length of penetrating rod
La= length of aonla fruit
Sr= clearance between the cutting blades and aonla resting seat
Clearance is provided for the smooth operation and protection for fruits slices. Diameter of penetrating rod and aonla fruit stone was almost equal.
2.3 Cutting blade: Cutting blade of width, thickness, and length was taken as it sufficient to cut the aonla pulp. The dimensions of the blades are as follows: Thickness of the blade TB = 2 mm (based onmaterial availability) Length of the blade (LB) LB= La+Sr+SW (2) LB = La + Sr + SW
Where, La = length of aonla
SW = Space for welding in head cylinder Width of blade (Wb) Wb= 12(Dgm-Dr)+Sb (3) Where, Dgm = geometric mean diameter Sb = increase of the blade 2.4 Aonla resting seat Aonla resting seat was used for keeping aonla in plate from a hole is provided for removal of stone (Fig. 1). 2.5 Hole Hole is used for the process of removing of aonla stone and provides passage for stone. Dh =Dsm (4) Where, Dh = diameter of hole
Dsm = geometric diameter of aonla stone Semi spherical concave surface Semi spherical concave surface was providing for keeping aonla in rest position for operation. The diameter of concave surface was just greater than the diameter of aonla. 2.6 Grooves: Grooves in the aonla resting seat were provided for the purpose of proper penetration of blade in aonla pulp. Length of groove (Lg)=(Wb+Dr2)-Dc/2(5) Where, Dc = diameter of surface
The material was used to fabricate cutting tool is mild steel and it has been coated by nickel polish so it becomes well anti corrosive properties against most of corrosive media as well as hygienic.
