Desenvolvimento de projeto conceitual de ferramenta de poda para viabilização da implantação de robô para a manutenção da arborização urbana de Maringá: estudo de caso

Abstract

This work presents an applied research project, aimed at developing a new concept of pruning tool, focused on making the process more dynamic through the robotization of the mechanism, always meeting a quality standard, referenced in norms and literature, starting from the context the large demand for trees on public roads in the city of Maringá, Paraná, where they are commonplace, as hundreds of trees fall in a single stormy day, which overloads the maintenance of public afforestation A survey collected data from primary sources, directly from official bodies along with field research, and via a bibliographic survey of pruning methods and the analysis of the literature of systems in robotics, being of a quality-quantitative nature. In the end, the outline of the new concept is presented, which foresees the flow of pruning through a duct to reduce movements in the pruning activity that can be coupled to robots developed for case study research and used directly in cranes on an emergency basis.
