Design and Manufacturing of Portable Harvester

Abstract

The project is intended to help small-scale grain growers to meet an increased demand for diverse, locally grown grains by designing a small scale harvester. To refine our prototype and final design, we worked closely with a three person review panel, made up of grain farmers and industrial designers. With this prototype, we hope to provide farmers nationwide with a way to harvest grains on small plots of land in cities and along the periphery of urban areas. Our primary intension was to reduce down the capacity as well as the cost of the machine. This was thought so as to make the machine affordable to the Indian farmers. According to the survey, the per capita land owned by Indian farmer is tiny so this makes it obvious that the existing machines are not laconic. The capacity was so reduced that it would cater the needs on the fields. The harvester design is kept simpler so that any discontinuity in working would not affect the work. The machine being small in size is very easy to transport.
