Design and Development of Kinematic and Strength Analysis of Solar Operated Multipurpose Agriculture Cutter Mechanism with Shaft Mounted Speed Reducer

P. D. Patil | Prof. N. S. Hanmapure

Abstract: In present practice, the harvesting of vegetables by farmers is carried out manually. In this paper, here an attempt is made to reduce the man power, time and expenditure for cutting vegetables. Here automated machine is used for cutting the vegetables. This device consists of blades which are operated with the help of motor, battery is used to supply power to motor which is charged by solar panel. The kinematic linkage arrangement produces 06 cuts per minute with an admit between the blade of 06 mm of arm. Now a days Solar is an emerging alternative energy source which ensures predictability, independence and even industrialization cost. These factors provide effectiveness for a number of agricultural applications. This mechanism of farming activity will lead to reduce labor cost which becomes extremely important in present situation.
