Area of Science:

  • Agricultural Engineering
  • Robotics
  • Food Processing Technology

Background:

  • Pickled mustard tuber (PMT), or *Brassica juncea* var. *tumida*, possesses a complex fibrous structure.
  • Current PMT processing relies on manual labor due to the lack of automated peeling solutions.
  • The intricate fiber network of PMT presents significant challenges for mechanical processing.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To design and develop an underactuated humanoid robot for automated PMT peeling.
  • To emulate the human 'insert-clamp-tear' peeling process using probabilistic statistical design.
  • To optimize robot end-effector trajectory and peeling efficiency for PMT.

Main Methods:

  • Developed a humanoid robot incorporating variable configuration constraints.
  • Utilized probabilistic statistical design based on PMT morphological cluster analysis.
  • Constructed and analyzed three distinct PMT peeling tool spectral profiles and modular mechanical properties.
  • Created an ADAMS virtual prototype for simulation of the 'insert-clamp-tear' process.

Main Results:

  • The robot achieved a meat loss rate of ≤15% across different PMT categories.
  • Demonstrated a theoretical peeling rate of up to 15 pieces per minute.
  • Attained an average residual fiber rate of approximately 2%.

Conclusions:

  • The developed pickled mustard tuber peeling robot significantly enhances peeling efficiency.
  • The system offers a viable solution for automated PMT processing with minimal product loss.
  • This research provides a theoretical foundation for fully automated PMT peeling systems.
