ABSTRACT
The main idea of this project is about providing an alternate solution for conveyors, which is used to convey lightweight materials like husk. Since husk can be easily blown away conveying in open space is not possible because air can easily blow it away from the conveyors. Also initial cost of conveyors is high so small scale industries cant really afford it, so they go for manual ways to move husk from one place to another place. But we can’t depend on manual labors all the time because of reasons like they are not easily available all the time and they would want overtime charge if the delivery is late or if the workers come late the unloading of husk can’t be done at the moment notice, and work time is wasted. To avoid this type of loses and to move husk anytime to a desired location this project can be used. This project uses a impeller connected to a motor to produce a suction force to suck the husk from a suction mouth connect and will blow the husk through a outlet mouth to any location we want. Since rice husk are dust like particles it will be easily sucked and blown away through a pipe.
