Effects Of Geometry And Material Bed Former Integrated With Hand Tractor Power Tiller

摘要

Farmers in Indonesia need a practical implementation to be able to make planting plot beds integrated with hand tractor power tiller. However, the design of the implement has not been studied in depth so that the design process can cause over or under design. Therefore, this paper presents a study of the influence of geometry and material types that are easily obtained for an implement bed former that is integrated with a hand tractor power tiller. The method used to analyze the suitability of the material in this study is through the finite element method. Three types of bed angles, namely 114?, 125?, and 121?, were tested to get their effect on the design of the former bed implement. Three types of materials that are easily obtained, namely Steel-Alloy steel, Iron-Ductile Iron, and woods-Balsa are used in the analysis to get the best material in the design. The results showed that the use of the angle of the implement bed former 125? gave a decrease in the value of the strain, displacement, and stress parameters. The best type of material using a digital-logic approach that can be used to implement bed former respectively is Iron-Ductile Iron, woods-Balsa, and Steel-Alloy steel.
