Energy Consumption during Cutting Tree Branches of Fig (Ficus carica)
This study evaluated energy consumption for cutting tree branches of the fig in different moisture contents (MC) levels at 10, 16, 20 and 25 % w.b., branch diameter levels at 0.5, 1, 1.5 and 2 cm, two types of cutting knives, smooth & serrated and three bevel angle of the knives at 15, 20 and 25 degrees. The analysis of results showed that cutting energy-reduced as the MC reduced. The knife bevel angle of 20 degrees at 10 % MC showed the lowest cutting energy. The lowest cutting energy was about 3.68 Joule (J) at a branch diameter of a fig about 0.5 cm at a bevel angle of 20 degrees and MC of 10 % for cutting by a serrated knife.
