3.3 Result of Compatibility Test between Cassava Digger and Conveyor Units
From the factor test above, adjustments are needed for the functioning of the prototype
Cassava Digger and Conveyor Units. The test operates in bed size of 5 x 80 m. The tests
have shown that the prototype device can dig and collect cassava rhizomes continuously
along the length of the 80 m bed. The working capacity is 0.05 ha/hr. The working efficiency
in functioning is 59.10%. No losses have been found for cassava that has not yet been
excavated, but the average losses of the cassava that has not yet been conveyed amounts
to 3.23%.
