Optimization of Roller-Type Safflower Harvesting Using Computer-Aided Technology

Abstract

The incorporation of computer information technology has brought about a significant transformation in traditional safflower harvesting methods. This research focuses on exploring the experimental parameters of a roller-type safflower harvesting device by utilizing computer-aided design and optimization techniques. The mechanism of the roller picking device, consisting of essential elements like guide rails, sliders, rubber rollers, and torque sensors, functions by precisely adjusting roller clearances and motor speeds to effectively gather safflower filaments. By conducting systematic experiments and fine-tuning parameters, the optimal combination of roller diameter, gap size, and rotational speed is determined to improve harvesting efficiency. The results of the experiments highlight the effectiveness of the roller-type harvesting device in increasing safflower harvesting rates. This study not only propels advancements in agricultural mechanization but also emphasizes the crucial role of computer information technology in enhancing harvesting processes. The amalgamation of mechanical innovation with computational capabilities signifies a new era in safflower harvesting technology.
