Abstract:
A trench is a long narrow ditch dug in the ground, the machine used for administering such a ditch is called trenching machines. Trenching machine are bifurcated depending upon their size and consist of portable, attachment and heavy duty type. The attachment type trenchers are extensively used in India, but have conditional usage depending upon the various local factors. Contrary to this type, the portable trenchers are more efficient in the Indian scenario. Owing to the undeveloped market the availability these trenchers is limited and they are overpriced. These trenchers are comfortable because of their small size and low cost. Thus development in the field of trenchers needs to be carried out in order to successfully extract all its advantages. The main component of this machine is digging chain, main power generating unit, power transmission device, sprocket and frame. The project deals with designing of all the parts of a walk behind trenchers, analysis of assembly along with focus on reducing the cost of the machine, which will result in reduced human effort for trenching and thus reducing time consumption for excavation.
