| Nowadays, the development of animal and poultry production needs to exert more efforts to increase and maintain high levels of feeding crop, in addition to improve the quality and quantity by decreasing losses during pre- processing operation and reducing the consumed energy. Our objective is to design various components of an Impact chopper like drive mechanism, shaft, rotor, hammers, casing, and discharge mechanism which will be useful in minimizing weight, cost and maximizing the capacity and also do their analysis. Impact choppers involve the use of impact rather than pressure to cut materials. The cutting process of agriculture plants is more complicated than the cutting of engineering materials (as steel, copper …etc.). This is due to that most of... |
