Design And Development Of Low Cost Power Tiller
Project Description :

In agriculture tilling or earthling up operation is very important parameter. the earthling up operation has been done every 45 days after planting and it must done before planting. this is the big issue for farmers but some farmer who have large farms they purchase mini tractors but what about small farmers? so power tiller is a solution over it. power tiller is an essential machine especially during seedbed preparation and hoeing season. working with a power tiller is fatiguing work for operators. a power tiller operator walks behind the machine during the working period. also the operator has to control forward movement and guide the machine while turning at headlands additionally environment conditions make the work harder. all of these factors cause fatigue on the operators. farmers operate for tillers for more than 8 h a day depends on the working conditions. for these reasons, operators’ fatigue during working with power tiller must be considered in terms of ergonomics. the power tiller is a solution over disadvantage of mini tractor which is main problem for all the farmers that is cost. the cost of power tiller is very less as compared to the mini tractors the power tiller is operated on engine so that according to soil condition the farmer is adjust speed of the rotor and he will get maximum efficiency. also the operating condition is also very easy. the farmer who have large farms they connect power tiller to the mini tractors so that operation is going to very easy. the soil condition after cultivation is almost same of that mini tractors and this is totally clear from the operation of the power tiller. power tiller reduces the operating cost, initial cost and it is simple in construction.
