Design Development and Fabrication of Soil Drilling Machine for Plants – Review

Abstract

Abstract: Today’s era is marching towards the rapid growth of all sectors including the plantation of trees to a large extent and the agricultural sector. Conventionally digging deep holes or larger diameter holes requires more work. So to reduce these losses we are planning to design a soil drilling machine for the plantation. A soil drilling machine is used to reduce the man's work and time for digging holes. These holes can be used for fixing engines and different plantations such as rubber plants, coconut, sugar cane, etc. The Project aims to Design Development and Fabrication of Soil Drilling Machine for plants which would be modified to overcome all the shortcomings of the existing Digging Machine. The project will be useful in providing a solution for a lowcost and comparatively safe auger that can be completely used by one person. This project will be provided with a safe and costefficient alternative to use for plantation or other purposes. This project will help understand the shortcomings of manual and power-operated Digging machines and provide possible solutions. Hence, this project will reduce the chances of auger-related injuries and also increase the stability and usability of the same. This project will help people to use Soil Drilling Machines comfortably and work will be done smoothly and efficiently. Our project aims to reduce the cost of the machine and make it portable for easy carrying. So due to these reasons, we are using a petrol engine instead of a diesel engine and we attach a steel frame to it to make it portable. This project involves the design and fabrication of a soil drilling machine. The design of the soil drilling machine is done by SOLIDWORKS and the fabrication is completed employing various fabrication techniques
