Samenvatting

Kverneland Group Nieuw-Vennep is an agricultural machinery manufacturer located in the town of Nieuw-Vennep in the Netherlands.
In the spring of 2015 the company will start the production of a new generation of trailed field sprayers and the desire is to assemble these machines as quickly and efficiently as possible. It wants to reach this goal in the first assembly station by tilting the frames sideways so that technicians can have better and more comfortable access to the bottom of the frames.

This design assignment is performed by a full-time mechanical engineering student from The Hague University Delft and is coached by Mr. W. J. Hijink.

The assignment is to design a tool for the trailed field sprayer assembly line that can lift and tilt the frames for the assembly of various frame parts. The necessary steps to achieve a worthy design will be followed in order to achieve a design that complies with the requirements that have been set by Kverneland Group Nieuw-Vennep.
Research will be conducted to explore what solutions are currently available on the market and a prototype build of the new trailed field sprayer will also be witnessed to gain perspective into the situation.
A function analysis of the frame manipulator will be conducted to identify what the frame manipulator must be capable of.
With this information a selection table comprised of solutions for each function will then be used to create various concepts for the frame manipulator. The final concept will be modeled in NX 8.0 and all parts of the frame manipulator will be described and discussed in this report.

In conclusion following a systematic design method where all aspects of the issue have been taken into account and then integrated into a final design has created a functional solution for the situation. Kverneland Group Nieuw-Vennep will evaluate this final design and necessary improvements can be made before having the frame manipulator built.
