Introduction

The Solar grass cutter is a grass-cutting that is

powered by the sun. The system uses 12V
batteries to power the car's moving engines and
a lawn mower. We also use a solar panel to
charge the battery so that there is no need to
charge it outdoors.
PROBLEM

The past technology of grass cutting is

manually operated by the use of hand devices
like scissors and knives, these results into more
human effort and more time required
accomplishing the work.
Why we need -

Less time consuming .

Less effort of human.
Uniformally Cutting grass.
Pollution free.
OBJECTIVE

This project's objective is to design and develop a

solar grass cutter that runs on solar energy and
avoids the drawbacks of traditional lawn cutters.
The goal is to prevent a power outage in India
while also reducing human labour, walking value,
and preservation costs.
SCOPES

The solar panel is coupled to the batteries and

therefore will charge them while in drive,
ensuring that we have adequate battery capacity
even on overcast days.
METHODOLOGY

Basically it consist of a rectangular framing section handle,

DC gear motor, sheet metal, tyres, solar panel battery etc.
In operation the solar energy absorbed by the solar panel
is been stored in the battery and the energy stored into
the battery will be used for further operation.

The main components of a solar grass cutter:

• Solar panel

• Battery

• 12 V DC motor

• Cutting blades

• Spur Gears

• Bearings

• Sheet metal

• Plastic pipes
APPLICATION

• For cricket ground

• For football ground

• All garden

• For agriculture purpose

Future Scope

• In future our college is planning to

install solar Grass Cutter in the campus

In future some modifications might be

done On solar grass cutter.
ADVANTAGES

No fuel consumption

No. of reciprocating parts are less

Compact size and portable

* Easy to move from one place to

another place

Operating principle is simple.

Non-skilled person also operate this

machine
DISADVANTAGES

• The eventual disposal of

batteries is problematic.

• The motors in cordless cutter

lend to be less powerful than
gasoline motors of the same
total weight.
CONCLUSION

The main aim of the project is to design

and fabricate an eco- friendly device
named as the solar grass cutter. There had
been many attempts in the past too for
making a device that cuts the grasses but
was mainly focused on the use of the
muscle power either human or animals.
