A shortage as well as a rise in costs for raw materials as used for production of derived timber products and fibre composites can be […]
Effects of the divers olive harvesting systems on oil quality
Three olives harvesting systems from the tree have been compared (manual, facilitated and mechanical) through experimental trials carried out respectively in three plots of a […]
The effect of genotype on table grapes soluble solids content
Sugar concentration in fresh consumed table grapes is mainly connected with technological maturity and primarily expressed by soluble solids content. The EU Regulation has laid […]
Maintenance interval optimization based on fuel consumption data via GPS monitoring
Properly performed preventive maintenance is one of the basic conditions for ensuring the operability of the mobile machines. There are basically two types of preventive […]
Theoretical research into the frictional slipping of wheel-type undercarriage taking into account the limitation of their impact on the soil
The frictional slipping of the tractor’s wheels causes great damage to the soil fertility. To ensure the minimal disturbance of its structure, it has been […]
Determination of power loss of combine harvester travel gear
This contribution aims at determining the power loss in hydraulic circuits of the John Deere S680i combine harvester travel gear. The individual elements of the […]
Application of overlaying material on surface of ploughshare for increasing its service life and abrasive wear resistance
Soil processing is one of the most basic operations in vegetable production. This research project focuses on extending the service life of ploughshares by covering […]
Use of Euler equations in research into three-dimensional oscillations of sugar beet root during its vibration-assisted lifting
Following the results of the research into the physical process of the vibratory interaction between the digging tool and the beet root, it has been […]
Laser scanner based collision prevention system for autonomous agricultural tractor
In manned agricultural vehicles, the automated systems assist the driver by reducing the workload. This is achieved e.g. by using an automatic guidance system to […]
Mulcher energy intensity measurement in dependence on performance
Conventional impact grass cutting and chopping is energy intensive and therefore it is important to reduce energy demands of such a device. In the paper […]
