Abstract

Classification and comparative assessment of machines for processing the near-trunk zone of orchards regarding their compliance with agrotechnical requirements has been carried out.
It has been established that cutters with a vertical rotation axis meet the mentioned requirements. As a result of their updating, a cutting machine with planetary mechanism with external gearing is recommended, which provides a large rotation number of the knife disk at low rotor speeds. Kinematic analysis of the transmission mechanism has been carried out, analytical expressions have been derived to determine the trajectory, speed, acceleration of the knife depending on the rotor frequency and gear ratio of the mechanism.
