UJI JARAK PUNCAK ULIR PADA ALAT PENGEMPA MINYAK KEMIRI TIPE ULIR
ABSTRACT: Basicly, the oil
press is designed for pressing the candlenut. This reasearch was on testing of
thread pitch variaton of oil press which was aimed to measure the best thread
pitch of candlenut oil press. This reasearch was conducted at agriculture engineering
laboratory USU on August 2014 – January 2015 using non factorial randomized
block design with three grades, i . e 1 cm, 2,5 cm, and 4 cm. Parameters
observed were effective capacity, losses, and yield. The best grade for
effective capacity and yield was P3 (pitch 4 cm) which produced 0,381 l/kg and
322 l/kg; and the best grade for losses was P2 (2,5 cm) which produced 29,733 %
