Abstract
Natural rubber is widely used in daily human life because of its excellent properties. At present, manual tapping is the main method to obtain natural rubber. Since the growth of the industrial sector is in line with the national economy, the demand for rubber resources has also increased. However, natural rubber production countries are now lacking their workforce because tapping rubber trees can be considered a high skill-oriented task. The lack of trained tappers will affect rubber production. Hence, this paper proposes a new mechanism for an automated rubber tapping mechanism. The experimental results showed the effectiveness of the developed device, with accurate 30 degrees diagonal cuts.
