Abstract

The aim of this paper is to develop an alternative solution for conventional method for shrub cutting. The flexible shrub cutting machine is the new innovative and effective concept mainly used for agricultural field to promote use of mechanical and automatic parts in field machines. Nowadays, humans are employed for cutting the shrubs in gardens and in some other places. It may be the difficult task for them as they should keep everything in regular manner while cutting and it takes little time in doing this work. In order to reduce the human effort we came up with this idea. The machine consists of three frames in which motor with blades made up of carbide material is made to move on it. The mechanism employed for this is the lead screw mechanism. The frame is made to be adjusted so shrubs with various height and width can be cut easily.
