Abstract

A sorting machine is a machine capable of sorting a large group of different objects into specific categories, such as color, weight, size, or shape. This type of machine is widely used in industries, but there are rarely any machines that sort escargots specifically. Most escargot sorting in Indonesia is still done manually by hand. The machine that I developed is of a typical weight sorting machine, but using electromagnets instead of regular permanent magnets. Electromagnets help in increasing sorting accuracy since they can be easily controlled. The escargot is put onto a tray held stable by an electromagnet. The strength of the magnet decreases as time goes by and at one point when the weight of the escargot surpasses the electromagnetic force, the escargot will drop onto a tray labelled according to their weight categories (small, medium, and large). This way, the heavier escargot will fall earlier and the lighter escargot will fall latter. By applying this method of sorting, the productivity of the escargot industry will increase. At the same time, it reduces the possibility of error occurrences that can be easily caused by humans.
