Abstract
Garbage is now very possible to be recycled again. One way to help the recycling process is to make a plastic bottle waste counting machine, so it is expected to improve work efficiency. In this study the driver uses 2 HP power, the test material is a plastic bottle with a thickness of 0.1 mm. Then calculating the engine capacity, shrinking the results of enumeration, electrical energy, the profit of production costs, the comparison of the efficiency of the electric motor drive compared to the gasoline motor, the rotation of the blade, and linear velocity v-belt. The results of this study are machines that are made of dimensions smaller than those on the market, but this machine can chop plastic bottles as much as 27.93 kg/ hour. The efficient comparison of the use of a plastic bottle junk drive motor that drives an electric motor compared to a petrol motor is 2.6:1. It can be concluded that the plastic bottle garbage counting machine with an electric motor is superior to a gasoline motor.
