Design and Development of Sugarcane Stripper Machine

India is the second largest producer of sugarcane in the world. During 2018-19, Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, Punjab, and Bihar are Indian states that have produced maximum quantities of sugarcane. In 2019, approximately 307 lakh tonnes of sugarcane were produced in India, which is nearly 11.8 percent of the global sugarcane production. Sugarcane crop has very long leaves. Stripping of sugarcane leaves is a major problem, which requires labor-intensive effort. Therefore, to resolve this problem, a tractor-operated sugarcane stripper machine was designed using the Computer-Aided Design (CAD) software. In the mainframe of CAD design, a power transmission system, transportation system, feed hopper conveyor, sugarcane de-topper, and a stripper system were designed. This machine will reduce human drudgery. Currently, this sugarcane stripper machine is getting very good acceptance nationwide. Further research has been undertaken at the Department of Farm Machinery and Power Engineering, Sam Higgin bottom University of Agriculture Technology and Sciences, Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh India. This machine was designed. The use of this machine will also help in reducing the cost and time of operation. In the future, this machine will help in improving the quality of stripping as well as ensuring effective utilization of the resources. The Design and development of the sugarcane leaf stripper machine will play a significant role
