DEFINITION OF TERMS
COCONUT MILK - defined as a milky-white liquid extracted from the grated
pulp of mature coconuts (Philippine Coconut Authority, 2020).
In this study, it refers on the finish product of an innovated designed
coconut milking machine.
COCONUT MILK EXTRACTOR - it is a device to extract fresh coconut milk. It
becomes an alternative for conventional extracting method nowadays
(ir.unimas.my, 2018).
In this study, it refers on the machine that could do all the process such
as dehusking, grating and milking. It will serve as a help for faster, lesser labor
and sustainable for agricultural crop production most specifically on the
coconut milk production.
CONSTRUCTION - the art and science to form objects, systems, or
organizations, and comes from Latin constructio (from com- "together" and
struere "to pile up") and Old French construction. (Wikipedia)
In this study, construction refers on making an innovative machine that
could process coconut milk.
CYLINDER CASING
DEHUSKING
DESIGN AND INNOVATION – is about generating ideas that are humanly
desirable, technologically feasible, and financially viable
(school.tfordesign.com).
In this study, it refers on the idea to improve the design of a coconut
milk extraction machine and innovate a mechanical process of coconut milking
production.
