Abstract

This paper describes the specification of requirements and the functionality, of a new mechanism of punch planter system based on small smart machines. The idea of this system is put the seed in soil by punches holes in the soil and drops seeds. The machine is constricted and tested in Mansoura university workshop. The aim of this work is to manufacture and construct the investigated planter, studies the effect of oscillating tube mechanism on the seeds distribution and to determine the factors that realizes the best operation condition. The data were statistically analyzed to determine the effect of the oscillating tube radii and the traveling speed of punch planter under two different of the connecting rod length (150, and 180 mm) on performance indices, namely mean seed spacing, miss index, multiples index, and quality of feed index, precisions in spacing and the amount of seed rate. The optimum parameters were found at punch planter speed of 0.6 m/s and oscillating tube radius of 12cm and connecting tube rod of 180mm.
