| Abstract/Description: | Vertical cup feed metering device was designed and evaluated at Division of Agricultural Engineering, ICAR-IARI, New Delhi during 2013–14 for singulation and uniform placement of urea briquettes in two forms, viz. UB1 (3 g) and UB2 (2 g). Performance parameters like average spacing, multiple index, missing index, quality feed index and precision were measured. The metering device was tested for different cup size depth of 6.5mm (CS1), 3.5mm (CS2) and 2.5 mm (CS3) with hemi-spherical shape. The average spacing was signicantly (P<0.05) inuenced by different sizes of cup and sizes of briquette. Miss index was highly inuenced by different cup sizes (P<0.05). The cup size (CS) inuenced missing the most, followed by briquette size, but UB size did not inuence missing index signicantly. The briquette size inuenced the multiple index most, followed by cup size of the metering mechanism (P<0.05). Quality of feed index was highly inuenced by UB size, followed by CS of the metering mechanism. General mean of quality of feed index was 94.77%. The effect of urea briquette and cup size was found to be non-signicant in case of precision. The general mean of precision was 13.30%. Based on the above parameters, optimum metering cup size was selected 6.5 mm and size of urea briquette UB1 for applicator developmen |
