      abstract = {This research presents the design and performance analysis of potato slicing machine (shaft design and rectangular cutting blade). The main purposes of this research are to construct the potato slicing machine and does performance test. And then, the static structural analysis of the shaft is done by using ANSYS 14.5 software. Then, the theoretical and analytical results of von-Mises stresses and effective strain are compared. In this research, shaft diameter is calculated by using ASME code equation. Mild steel shaft is selected for design to obtain high strength. The length of shaft is 600mm and the calculated diameter of rotating shaft is 20mm. Single-row deep groove ball bearings 6804 and 6904 are selected. The stress analysis for shaft is conducted using ANSYS14.5 by numerical approach and also the von-Mises stresses and effective strain are calculated theoretically.  From the comparison, theoretical and numerical equivalent von-Mises stresses and effective strains are nearly the same. By observing the analysis results, the stress values obtained are less than the yield strength 247MPa of mild steel. So, the design is safe under working condition. The performance of the machine is tested and the efficiency of the machine is 85% with capacity 3.8 kg/min.},
