Automatic Rubber Tree Tapping Machine Project

Advance rubber tapping machine it can be seen that the usage of electric tapping machine greatly reduces the workload of tapping workers reducing the cost of planting rubber planting but also improve the rubber collection rate as it compared with the traditional human tapping knife.

Automatic rubber tree tapping machine project.

The results were up to the expectations. A highly skilled labour needs about 40 seconds to tap a tree whereas the machine could do it in 20 30 seconds. Here a helical cut is made in the tree approximately four feet from the ground and circling about half the tree. Automatic rubber tapping system arts automatic tapping machine or arts is an automatic latex harvester attached to the tree with the concept of bark incision.

Every day workers scrapes away the caked latex and a thin layer of bark in the early morning. For validating the concept a prototype is being developed and tested. It is portable labor saving time saving and set the limit. Drill automated rubber tapper dart is a drill powered rubber tree tapping machine.

So this paper discusses about a low semi automatic rubber tree tapping machine sart which can be used by an unskilled labor to perform tapping on the rubber tree by preserving the tree health. The automated rubber tapering machine is fixed to the rubber tree and the device operation is performed. The machine is capable to perform the tapping task automatically according to the programmed time. This proposed machine is a battery powered tool with a specially designed cutting blade and guide mechanism supported by a sensory system which assists the operator to perform tapping of required quality and standards on all trees in a plantation.

By a process called rubber tapping we obtain rubber latex from tree. For validating the concept a prototype is being developed and tested. The proposed machine is fabricated and tested on the tree. An incision is made in the bark of a rubber tree which cuts through the planting cycle to optimise the latex yield.
