A System for Semi-Autonomous Tractor Operations
Tractors are the workhorses of the modern farm. By automating these machines, we can increase the productivity, improve safety, and reduce costs for many agricultural operations. Many researchers have tested computer-controlled machines for farming, but few have investigated the larger issues such as how humans can supervise machines and work amongst them. In this paper, we present a system for...
متن کاملDiesel Fuel Consumption during Tractor Operations
Introduction Direct energy expenses (diesel, gasoline, propane, electricity) total more than $1 billion annually for Iowa’s farmers. Day-to-day farm management techniques such as adjusting tractor gear and throttle settings, making use of front-wheel-drive, and other strategies can reduce diesel fuel consumption for row crop production and general tractor operations. This study is being conduct...
متن کاملSome Practical Aids in Tractor Maintenance
It can be said that lubricants are used to reduce the friction between rubbing surfaces. This is done by separating the moving surfaces with a film of the lubricant, thereby replacing the friction of the metal to metal surfaces by the internal friction within the lubricant itself. Lubricants also act as a cooling agent to carry away heat generated by friction or conducted to the bearing surface...
متن کاملOperations and Maintenance 2
Large computer systems consist of many parts, only some of which contribute directly to the application for which the system was built. This collection of patterns describes several capabilities of a system that perform this background, supporting role. The roles of these patterns is to aid in application specific data, performance and health measurements, managing faults, and also managing the...
متن کاملCritical Technologies for Operations and Maintenance
Given the large expenditures on capital equipment characteristic of mining, technology developers and users alike place a very high priority on improving equipment productivity. Proper maintenance is essential to maximizing both availability and productivity. At the same time, maintenance services are a major cost element of all mine operations.1 Accordingly, after process optimization, equipme...
