Summary, etc. This study, Development of a Coconut Midrib Separating Machine for Local<br/>Broomstick Production aimed to reduce manual labor, improve production<br/>efficiency, and support small scale broom sticks producers through the application<br/>of mechatronics technology. The developed prototype combines mechanical,<br/>electrical and electronics control systems to motorize the stripping process of<br/>coconut midribs. The machine consists of a stripping mechanism powered by AC<br/>and DC motors, control components including start, stop, and emergency stop<br/>functions. Both functionality and performance test were conducted to assess the<br/>machine’s feeding capacity, stripping efficiency, weight sensor accuracy, power<br/>consumption, and motor efficiency. Results showed that the machine successfully<br/>attained its stripping ability. The highest production rate was up to 98 pieces of fresh<br/>coconut leaves under 30 minutes in optimal operating conditions. Power<br/>consumption varied depending on load quantity and operating time with an average<br/>power consumption of 0.2669 kWh and 0.00813 kWh for each motor, while the<br/>machine maintained stable performance throughout testing. Although the coconut<br/>midrib feeding capacity is from five (5) to eight (8) pieces only due to the narrow<br/>feeder section, the machine can operate rigorously for hours without motor<br/>overheating. Findings indicate that the developed machine can serve as a practical<br/>and reliable solution for larger local broomstick production, helping reduce physical<br/>effort and improve productivity among local and small-scale producers.<br/>Keywords: Agricultural Innovation, Arduino Uno, Coconut Midrib, Local<br/>Broomsticks, Stripping Mechanism, Steel Wire Brush
