Description Not Available
An integrated small scale lac processing unit was developed and evaluated for seedlac manufacturing from sticklac. The developed unit can be operated easily and found that different mechanisms provided in the unit performed as per requirement. Quality parameters of seedlac manufactured through the developed unit were determined within the acceptable limit as per standard values IS: 6921-1973 and colour parameters of the same were found higher compared to seedlac manufactured through Small Scale Lac Processing Unit. About 300 person-days/year can be generated through the developed unit under primary lac processing for seedlac manufacturing from sticklac. Particle size of seedlac manufactured from sticklac through the developed unit are in accordance with the specification IS: 6921-1973. Machine developed for primary processing of lac may switch over comparatively from the existing labour intensive mechanism. Thus, it may reduce the drudgery, time and consequently results into more efficient mechanism for primary level processing of sticklac (resin).
