Structural design of Cartesian vacuum system for loose fruit collector (LFC) machine

In Sime Darby Plantation, the loose fruit collector machine has already been built, but the machine needs to be improvised as driver of the machine need to manually suck the loose fruit by getting down the tractors and open then closed the chamber when releasing the loose fruit to separator section....
