Abstract
Energy is one of the major parameters for establishing growth and progress of the country, rather the standard of living depends directly upon the per capita energy consumption. The reel mower, invented by Edwin Beard Budding in 1830, revolutionized lawn care by introducing a mechanical alternative to manual hand tools. Its rotating cylindrical blades, mimicking scissors, offer precise and efficient grass cutting. With increasing environmental concerns, manual mowers have regained popularity for smaller lawns, promoting healthier turf while minimizing noise pollution. In our campus, the presence of overgrown grass in certain areas poses potential hazards such as accidents, injuries, and insect bites. Manual cutting of these areas is time-consuming and labour- intensive. To address these challenges, this project focuses on developing a solar-powered grass cutting machine for efficient and cost-effective operation. The machine incorporates a horizontal cutting blade driven by a rotating roller. This design aims to facilitate faster and more economical grass cutting. We explore the design, functionality, and sustainability of this solar-powered solution, emphasizing its eco-friendly nature by eliminating the need for fuel or electricity, thereby reducing emissions and promoting a more sustainable approach to lawn maintenance. This paper summarize and reviews technological development for making efficient and effective grass cutter.
