 • In today’s fast-paced world, speed and
efficiency are essential. Small-scale
industries contribute significantly by
developing cost-effective, high-quality
solutions.
Introductio • This project focuses on the design and
n fabrication of a multipurpose sieving
machine that automates the sorting of
materials by particle size. Using a crank
and slider mechanism, it reduces
manual effort, improves speed, and is
ideal for applications in construction
(sand sieving) and agriculture (grain
filtering and impurity removal).
 • Design and fabricate a multipurpose
sieving machine for efficient material
sorting.
Objectives • Automate the sieving process to
reduce manual effort and improve
speed.
• Incorporate a crank and slider
mechanism for smooth, horizontal
motion.
• Ensure cost-effectiveness for small-
scale industries.
 In many industries, manual sieving is
time-consuming, labor-intensive, and
inconsistent. There is a need for an
Problem efficient, automated solution to sort
statement materials based on particle size. Current
manual methods in applications such as
sand sieving in construction and grain
filtering in agriculture are not optimal in
terms of speed, accuracy, and effort. This
project aims to design and fabricate a
multipurpose sieving machine that
Disadvantages of Old Manual Sieving
Methods • Labor-Intensive: Requires significant physical effort,
leading to increased worker fatigue.

• Time-Consuming: Manual sieving is slower compared

to automated methods, reducing overall productivity.

• Inconsistent Results: Manual handling can result in

uneven sieving, leading to variations in material
quality.

• Limited Capacity: Manual sieving has a low

throughput, making it unsuitable for large-scale
operations.

• Higher Risk of Human Error: Inaccuracies in particle

sorting due to human mistakes.

• Not Scalable: Difficult to scale up for larger operations

without increasing labor costs significantly.
 1. Separation and Characterization
• Separates desired materials from
unwanted elements.
• Ensures particles are sorted to the
required size using sample
Multipurpose Sieving allocation.
Applications- 2. Breaking Clumps in Dry Particles
• Used to break up clumps in
materials like sand and wheat.
• Construction Industry
3. Construction Industry
• Sorts sand for concrete preparation
using a rectangular mesh.
4. Agriculture
 1. Design:
• Conduct research on existing sieving
machines and mechanisms.
• Create a CAD model of the sieving
machine, incorporating a crank and
Methodology slider mechanism for horizontal
motion.
2. Material Selection: Choose cost-
effective, durable materials for machine
components.
3. Fabrication: Manufacture and
assemble the machine, focusing on the
crank and slider mechanism.
Product features

• Low Cost and Simple Operation: Designed for small-scale or domestic use.

• Compact Design: Requires limited space and is user-friendly.

• Versatility: Filters dirt, stones, and unwanted particles effectively.

 The sieving machine uses a
crank and slider mechanism to
achieve horizontal reciprocating
Working motion:
principle
• Rotary Motion from an AC motor
is converted into Reciprocating
Motion using pulleys, connecting
rods, and wheels.
• The sieving box moves back and
forth along a rail track,
performing the sieving process.
