Diseño y simulación de elementos mecatrónicos de un equipo prototipo semiautomático para el arado y la siembra de maíz

Abstract

The agricultural field is in constant innovation, where machinery is key to its development, which requires more sophisticated equipment and qualified personnel for the proper handling of agricultural machinery. Agriculture has several machinery depending on the area, in the case of small farmers do not have this facility and perform the work by renting or manually activities which can affect their health and their way of life. For them, having machinery will help for a more efficient process to be able to perform all their work in an easier and simpler way. After the background, we proceed with the design and simulation of mechatronic elements of a semi-automatic prototype equipment for plowing and planting corn, in order to promote a preliminary study for the development of the equipment, allowing to know and understand the operation of the entire system put into the machine. This project defines the design and simulation procedure, as well as the assembly of the different elements that compose it, with a clear description of the process, electrical and electronic connections for the construction of the equipment.
