blender becomes damaged. Therefore, a passion fruit skin grater was designed. The method used by the author is the Ulrich method by selecting several design concepts, designing aided by CAD software for making drawings, fabrication, assembling machine components, and testing tools to
determine the production results of the machine. There are various types of materials used in the manufacture of passion fruit leather grater machines, starting from the frame and engine mount using L profiles with ASTM A36 material, grating cover and hopper using SS 304 material, pulley cover using aluminum material, the shaft on this machine uses S45C material, and wear 1 V-belt with rubber material.
