Abstract :
Automation is the use of control systems and information technologies to reduce the need for human work in the production of goods and services. Automation is a step beyond mechanization because mechanization needs human operators with machinery to assist them with the muscular requirements of work whereas automation greatly decreases the need for human sensory and mental requirements as well. Dioscoreae hispida which is also known as ‘ubi gadong’ in Malaysia is a poisonous plant where methodical studies have shown that its rhizome contains toxic poison. It can be consumed after the poison of dioscorin is removed. Dioscorin removal system is a machine that used to remove the dioscorin with the water. It is a simple machine with two tanks which the upper tank used to hold ubi gadong and water and lower tank consist of water pump. The dioscorin removal system is depends on the electrical power supplier to function. Dioscorin removal machine is a machine that included several electronic components for automation to remove the dioscorin found in ubi gadong which is toxic. The sensors play an important role in manages the input and output source. Controller with timer is also important in manage the timing when water will be renewed and removed. Water pump provides water force which will cause the rotation of water. A few modifications may help improve the machine to operate more efficiently.
