FABRICATION OF POTATO HARVESTER

MECHANICAL ENGINEERING

The main purpose of our Project is to help small scale farmers who having land area less than 5 acres by designing small scale harvester machine to harvest vegetables very efficiently. Our project work will focus on ease of harvesting operation to the small scale farmers for harvesting varieties of grain in less time and at low cost by considering different factors such as cost of equipment, ease of operation and time of operation. This machine is compact and is designed to harvest one row at a time. The potato harvester dig the potatoes by the digger web. The machine harvest the potatoes by lifting the potatoes from the bed using a share. Soil and potatoes are transferred onto a series of webs where the soil and the potatoes are sieved out and the potatoes are separated from the soil. The future work is also considered for the development or it can be connect to any vehicle that can drive easily that upturns the productivity of the product and diminishes the human effort.
