DESIGN AND FABRICATION OF MULTIPURPOSE AGRICULTURAL ROBOT

Abstract

The Agricultural Robot project aims to develop a mechanically driven robot to assist in basic farming tasks, focusing on efficiency, time-saving, and labor reduction. This robot relying on a pre-designed mechanical system and motorized movement to navigate farmland and perform agricultural activities such as planting, watering, and soil tilling. It uses a simple motor-driven wheel system combined with gears, pulleys, and programmable movement paths to ensure coverage of the field in a structured and consistent manner. The robot‘s design emphasizes reliability, low maintenance, and cost effectiveness, making it suitable for small to medium-scale farms. By automating repetitive tasks, it minimizes human effort while maintaining productivity and uniformity in crop care. The project demonstrates a practical approach to mechanized agriculture, showing how mechanical and electrical integration can improve farm operations without relying on complex electronics or sensors. This robot represents an accessible solution for farmers seeking to modernize their practices, increase efficiency, and reduce manual labor through simple, robust automation.
