Description of Pedal operated papad press(Papad Rolling Machine)

Papad is a popular and tasty food item in the Indian diet since many centuries. It is essentially a wafer-like product, round in shape and made from dough of powdered pulses, spices, powdered chilly and salt. Variety of pulses and proportion of pulses and spices varies from region to region depending upon preferences of local people whereas certain varieties are popular on a larger scale. Traditionally this activity was confined to household papad making but in view of increasing demand and availability of machinery (mechanization) it has now been developed in cottage and small scale sector.
Jas enterprise has developed a simple inexpensive foot operated press to make about 500 papad / hour from Dal flour dough. The thickness of the papad altered in the machine by adjusting the clearance between the roller & polpat. Being leg operated it is simple and easy to operate. This machine adopted for cottage scale production of papad. Raw materials required for papad making are locally available in rural areas. Urad dhal, any pulses flour, salt, farinaceous material and spice mix are required. The papad industry has a good scope for marketing.
