These methods require skilled labour and are laborious to use. Attempts made so far in the development of de-husking tools have only been partially successful and not effective in replacing manual methods. Considering, the drawbacks of manual de-husking of manual de-husking methods, existing automated de-husker, power operated coconut de-husking machine was developed. The power operated coconut de- husking machines operates on 1hp electric motor. It consists of main parts like frame, electric motor, speed reduction unit and de-husking unit. Single person is required for operating the de-husker. It can be operated by unskilled labour. Cost benefit analysis indicates that it should be commercially valuable. Keywords: frame, electric motor, speed reduction unit and de-husking unit, I.
