Abstract
In this data article, laboratory experimental investigation results carried out at National Centre for Agricultural Mechanization (NCAM) on moisture content, machine speed, die diameter of the rig, and the outputs (hardness, durability, bulk density, and unit density of the pellets) at different levels of cassava pellets were observed. Analysis of variance using randomized complete block design with factorial was used to perform analysis for each of the outputs: hardness, durability, bulk density, and unit density of the pellets. A clear description on each of these outputs was considered separately using tables and figures. It was observed that for all the output with the exception of unit density, their main factor effects as well as two and three ways interactions is significant at 5% level. This means that the hardness, bulk density and durability of cassava pellets respectively depend on the moisture content of the cassava dough, the machine speed, the die diameter of the extrusion rig and the combinations of these factors in pairs as well as the three altogether. Higher machine speeds produced more quality pellets at lower die diameters while lower machine speed is recommended for higher die diameter. Also the unit density depends on die diameter and the three-way interaction only. Unit density of cassava pellets is neither affected by machine parameters nor moisture content of the cassava dough. Moisture content of cassava dough, speed of the machine and die diameter of the extrusion rig are significant factors to be considered in pelletizing cassava to produce pellets. Increase in moisture content of cassava dough increase the quality of cassava pellets.

1. Data
The data for this paper were obtained from AIDE Department, National Centre for Agricultural Mechanization (NCAM), Idofian, Ilorin, Nigeria. The data are on experimental investigation performed on Cassava. Three factors were involved, each with four levels: moisture content (48.5%(wb), 50.5%(wb), 52.5%(wb), 54.5%(wb)); machine speed (1.5 mm|min, 2.5 mm|min, 3.5 mm|min, 4.5 mm|min); die diameter of the rig (6 mm, 8 mm, 10 mm, 12 mm), and each combination of this experiment (43) were replicated three times. Altogether there were 192 experimental units. The analysis was done using 43 factorial design with randomized complete block design.
The raw data with the three factors: moisture content, speed, die diameter, and their replication, and also each of the four outputs: hardness, bulk density, durability and unit density. Altogether, there are eight (8) columns and 192 rows, in the file, which can be assessed as Supplementary data.
Statistical summary of each of the outputs: hardness, bulk density, durability, unit density are presented in Table 1. It was observed that the average hardness in N, bulk density in kg|m3; durability in % and unit density of cassava pellets are 10.9505, 56.9264, 31.4840 and 0.0120 respectively.

2. Experimental design, materials and methods
Several studies have been conducted on the pellets [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6], [7], [8], [9]. Similar data articles on pellets that applied statistical tools can be helpful, readers are referred to [10], [11], [12], [13], [14], [15], [16], [17], [18].
The materials used for this experiment are classified into two groups namely: the cassava powder and the mechanical extrusion rig.
2.1. Cassava preparation
Cassava tubers were bought from Idofian market in Ifelodun Local Government area of Kwara State Nigeria. The tubers were processed into cassava powder as shown in Fig. 5. The moisture content of the cassava powder was 10%wb and it was conditioned to form cassava dough using Eq. (1). Weight of water () to be added is

2.2. Pelletization process
The mechanical extrusion process (pelletization) involves the application of a compressive force on the cassava dough enclosed in a cylinder with replaceable die called pelletization rig and is shown in Fig. 7. The pelletization rig containing the cassava dough was mounted on the “TESTOMETRICS” universal testing machine (model M500 50kN) as shown in Fig. 6 and extraction process took place on the “TESTOMETRICS” Universal testing machine.

2.2.1. Description of the TESTOMETRICS universal testing machine
As shown in Fig. 6, the mechanical extrusion rig consists of two parts. The TESTOMETRICS universal testing machine (UTM Model M500 50KN, England, United Kingdom) and a piston cylinder rig which has been in use for extrusion purposes on the UTM. The UTM consists of the control console, load frame. crosshead, load cell, a computer and printer.
The load frame of the U T M is an extrusion support column with the slot for accessory mounting (cross head) twin re-circulatory ball screws. The cross-head range is 0.001 to 500 mm/min. Maximum cross head travels is 1000 mm. Load cells (load indicating mechanism) are automatically identified and have 800% overload protection capacity.
The machine can be programmed with 100 different test methods/definitions for quick menu recall using Win test software. Results, statistics and graphs can be generated with or without the use of a computer with optional long term data storage and retrieval. Test model/type includes tension, compression, flexural, cyclic etc with appropriate grip and fixtures available for each test type.
2.2.2. The piston cylinder assembly
The piston cylinder assembly (shown in Fig. 6) is made up of three major components: the compression piston, the press cage cylinder, and the supporting platform.
The press cage cylinder is made of mild steel pipe with inside diameter of 160 mm, length of 105 mm, and thickness of 6 mm.
The compression piston is made up of mild steel of 104.23 mm diameter and 126.33 mm height. The supporting platform was made up of angle iron of 3 mm thick, inside dimension of 35 mm by 20 mm and 25 mm height. The dies were four in number; cut from 4 mm thick mild steel plate with holes of 6 mm diameter, 8 mm diameter, 10 mm diameter and 12 mm diameter, with circumference forming about 8 percent of the total area of the plate to cover the cylinder with wire quase, which was improvised for the collection of pellets formed for carefulness and ease of drying in the batch drier.
2.3. Data analysis
The 43 factorial experiment design with randomized complete block design was adopted for the analysis. 43 factorial design implies three (3) factors (moisture content, speed and die diameter) each at four (4) levels. The factor and levels are: moisture content (48.5%(wb), 50.5%(wb), 52.5%(wb), 54.5%(wb)), machine speed (1.5 mm/min, 2.5 mm/min, 3.5 mm/min, 4.5 mm/min), die diameter of the rig (6 mm, 8 mm, 10 mm, 12 mm). Each of these experiments was replicated three times. The total units of experiment were 4×4×4×3 which is 192 altogether. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) table was derived on each output (hardness, bulk density, durability and unit density).
Four moisture contents of 48.5%wb, 50.5%wb, 52.5%wb and 54.5%wb were therefore obtained altogether with 10%wb corresponding to the initial moisture.
Table 2, Table 6, Table 10 present the analysis of variance results for hardness, bulk density and durability of cassava pellets respectively. It was observed from the three tables that all their main factor effects as well as two and three ways interactions are significant at 5% level. This means that the hardness, bulk density and durability of cassava pellets respectively depend on the moisture content of the cassava mash, the machine speed, the die diameter of the rig and the combinations of these factors in pairs as well as three altogether.

Table 14 presents the analysis of variance result for the unit density of cassava pellets. However, only the die diameter and the three-way interaction are significant at 5% level. This implies that the unit densities of cassava pellets only depends on the die diameter of the rig and the effect of the combination of moisture content, machine speed and die diameter of the rig.
