Abstract: With the increasing levels of technology, the efforts being put to produce any kind of work has been continuously decreasing. The efforts required in achieving the desired output can be effectively and economically be decreased by the implementation of better designs. Conveyor systems are one of the most commonly used equipment in almost every industry. They help in achieving different kinds of functions and by automating them you can get the added advantages of flexibility and safe practices. Besides, they also help in enhancing the performance and cost-effectiveness of your processes. This conveyor system we can modify according to application and also can be developed as per height and width of job/ application. In this project, we have tried to develop a new mechanism for sugarcane lifter for tractor trolley loading and unloading purpose. Here we have used the chain and sprocket concept to manufacture the proposed mechanism. Our main objective of developing the mechanism is understanding the usage of various mechanical machine tools and also measuring tools. We have tried to develop a mechanism which can be used for loading the sugarcane in both trucks or trolley and bullock cart which is comparatively very small in height for loading purpose. Our project uses special chain drive system, D.C gear motor, bearing, shaft, and carrier. As a consequence of poor management and the under-utilization of equipment, loading has been identified as an inefficient and costly operation. Studies have shown that technology and management can contribute to improved loading accuracy. We have developed a mechanism which will help to increase the loading accuracy and efficiency of the work.
