Summary: | Pepper harvest is a difficult operation and sometime can bring hazard. Ladder is
used in this operation to assist farmers to reach the higher portion of pepper tree. It
shows ladder is the important devices in the agriculture field. Ladder for pepper harvest
was designed to facilitate the farmers in harvesting operation. The application of
axiomatic concept is used in this project to facilitate the designing process. Location
surveys for this project have been conducted at several farm and orchard at Serian area
to identify farmer’s problems regarding the harvesting operation. After problems are
identified, the new design of ladder was proposed to fulfill the user needs. Then, from
the conceptual phase, the design has through several phases steps by steps to ensure the
ladder achieve the best solution and every details assumption is bring into account until
the final design is constructs using computer software. The maximum allowable load for
the ladder is calculated using solid modeling simulation analysis to estimate the
endurance of the material proposed for the ladder and the total rough cost for the
proposed ladder is estimated too, to make sure the design is affordable by the users. For
the final design, the ladder is providing with platform and wheel together with the
unique braking system to ensure it easy and effective for the users. |
