Introduction
We are developed agriculture fertilizer new RND mechanical project. This
project provides farmer three needs solution cropping, spraying, dust ring. Shortly
explanation of each part as follow.
With the development of these modern lime and fertilizer materials, as well as
equipment for handling and application, amending soil chemical properties became a
cheap and easily accomplished task relative to the high returns often achieved. Soil
testing developed as a means for answering questions about need for a particular
amendment (status of the soil's fertility) and uncertainty about how much to add.

LITERATURE REVIEW
Narode R. R.1, Sonawane A. B.2, Mahale R. R.3, Nisal S. S.4, Chaudhari S. S.5,
Bhane A. B.6 1,2,3,4Student at Department of Mechanical Engineering,
University of Pune, SND COE & RC, Yeola, Dist. Nasik, India [1] A method was
generated to spread the fertilizer uniformly over a fallow land by dropping the
fertilizer over the impeller disc. The system consists of a three wheels, two at the front
and one at the back. These two wheels at the front are used to impel the fertilizer. The
two hoppers are used to store the fertilizer; these hoppers are placed at some height
from the wheel axle so that the fertilizer falls on to the impeller. The hopper is
provided with flow control mechanism. In fertilization, the flow maintenance is
necessary. Generally every crop should get sufficient amount of fertilizer. This
condition is satisfied by Spring Mechanism. In normal conditions spring is not in
tension and hopper is closed. As operator apply tension on the spring, controlling
plate moves backward and hopper is open. Below this system there is an impeller. It is
mounted on output shaft. Hooper opens on Impeller eccentrically and due to
centrifugal action fertilizer spreads in the farm. This high value of centrifugal force is
generated by the help of proper gear reduction ratio. The gears are coupled to the shaft
of wheel.
With this machine, percentage reduction in time required for Fertilization was
observed to be 50% and reduction in labor cost as compared to conventional method
was 80%. It has solved the problem of traditional way of Fertilization
Deshpande P.M.1, Shinde M.A.2, Wadile A.S.3, Vaidya R.R.4, Shukla V [2] In
recent days it has been found that farmers are not able to gain more crop production
by use of conventional methods. This project is concentrated on manually fertilization
process. A method is generated in which fertilizer is spread by means of rotating
impeller. The system consist of two wheels which are used to impel fertilizer; a
hopper to store fertilizer along with flow control mechanism. Below this system there
is an impeller. It is mounted on output shaft; pair of bevel gears which are coupled to
the shaft of wheel. The whole design is supported by frame and column. Keywords:

In Feb 2015, Narode R.R, Sonawane A.B, Mahale R.R, Nisal S.S, Chaudhari
S.S, Bhane A.B proposed “Manually Operated Fertilizer Spreader”. [4] A
method was generated to spread the fertilizer uniformly over a fallow land by
dropping the fertilizer over the impeller disc. The system consists of a three heels, two
at the front and one at the back. These two wheels at the front are used to impel the
fertilizer. The two hoppers are castoff to supply the fertilizer. These hoppers are tie up
at certain height from the wheel axle so that the fertilizer drops on to the impeller. The
hopper is on condition that with flow control contrivance. In fertilization, the flow
maintenance is indispensable. In general every crop ought to get sufficient amount of
fertilizer. This condition is gratified by Spring Mechanism. In ordinary conditions
spring is not in pressure and hopper is locked. As operator apply pressure on the
spring, controlling plate moves backward and hopper is open. Beneath this system
there is an impeller. It is astride on output shaft. Hooper opens on Impeller bizarrely
and due to centrifugal action fertilizer spreads in the farm.
In February 2016, S.Meivel, Dr.R.Maguteeswaren, N.Gandhiraj, G.Srinivasan
proposed “Quadcopter UAV Based Fertilizer and Pesticide Spraying System”. The
quadcopter is cost in effect substitute to extraordinary cost standard rotorcrafts. UAVs
are briskly forthcoming routine for cultivation, production and protection
progressions. The quadcopter was elected for this project because of tall stability and
further lifting power. The controller of quadcopter is laid-back than the helicopter
exemplary of vehicles. Some solicitations of quadcopter are Search and Rescue,

3.2 Planning
Data collection is a stage in any area of study. At this stage I planned about the
projects resources and requirements, literature studies and schedule to get more
information in this study. All the materials are collected from journal, texts book and
research papers gathered from libraries and Internet.
Within the data collection period I have found the study about the Automatic
car parking in the Internet and do some research about the project related. Once I got
the project manual, I tried to find out the electronic component and other materials
and some of equipment to be used.
While planning, I have done the research about the project related, which
including with study about the mechanical & civil components such as Rack &
Pinion, Round pipe, DC gear motor, microcontroller kit etc. The study is not just for
the function of the component but the types of small circuit build by each component
related.

Manufacturing process are the steps through which the raw materials are transformed
into which the design is made. These materials are then modified through
manufacturing process to become the required part. Manufacturing processes can
include treating (such as heat treating or coating)’ Machine or reshaping the material.
The manufacturing process can also include tests and checks for quality assurance
during or after the manufacturing and planning the production process prior to
manufacturing.

Cutting operation is done for to cut the pipes for making an cylinder and
condenser is a required dimensions from it. The power hacksaw is used to cutting
purpose of pipe and also we required cutting operation through power hacksaw for
cutting of air receiver material so as to make receiver and condenser. The material of
air receiver and condenser is mild steel. So it does required additional stress for
cutting operation.

Welding
Arc welding is one of several fusion processes for joining metals. By applying
intense heat, metal at the joint between two parts is melted and caused to intermix -
directly, or more commonly, with an intermediate molten filler metal. Upon cooling
and solidification, a metallurgical bond is created. Since the joining is an intermixture
of metals, the final element potentially has the same strength properties as the metal
of the parts. This is in sharp contrast to non-fusion processes of joining (i.e. soldering,
brazing etc.) in which the mechanical and physical properties of the base materials
cannot be duplicated at the joint.
