[QUOTE="EmmaBD, post: 7780747, member: 161830"] Hi all, I'm an engineering University student (at Strathclyde in Glasgow) and I have chosen looking at agricultural equipment for my masters project! The project I've proposed is looking at [B]PTO shafts and a way to make them safer and reduce related injuries[/B]. I am not a farmer or from a farming background so any help on the topic is appreciated - I figured you would all know a lot about this working with them every day. The project could look at these kinds of things: - redesigning it to be safer for handling - finding a way to minimise maintenance/ interaction - integrating a self-lubricating system into the design - improving the guard designs (apparently they don't last very long) - having some sensors or automatic switch off systems? If you have any input on the project from what you would want to see, whether you think this is a good topic etc please comment! [/QUOTE]
