Abstract

This study was conducted to develop the hanging type circular-patterned system that at maximizing the spatial efficiency of strawberry cultivation to increase yields, while also reducing labor and improving energy efficiency. The system consists of a cultivation bed units, longitudinal moving device, bed lifting device, front and rear transfer devices, lateral transfer device, nutrient supply device, and control unit. Performance testing revealed that the operational motor for longitudinal movement should have a torque of at least 0.1Nm based on the design weight and traction force of the cultivation bed unit. The power consumption required to move one cycle was calculated to be approximately 149Wh when performing harvesting or maintenance tasks for all 10 cultivation beds. Vibration angles measured during bed movement showed that the lateral transfer resulted in a roll angle ranging from -0.62° to 0.68° and a pitch angle ranging from -3.79° to 5.26°. For longitudinal transfer, the roll angle ranged from -3.37° to 3.36°, and the pitch angle ranged from -0.45° to 0.49°.
