In this work, an experimental substantiation of the main parameters of the device for mechanical separation of the flow of fruits during their optical sorting by a vision system was carried out. To conduct experimentalstudies, a laboratory installation of a technical vision system was created, consisting of a photomodule with a video camera with a lens and structural illumination, as well as an electronic control unit with an industrial computer. To obtain the regression equation, a symmetrical non-compositional Box-Behnken design was chosen. The main objective of the experiment is to obtain a regression equation that will allow us to evaluate the influence of influencing factors on the accuracy of separating sorted apples. As optimization factors, the speed of the main conveyor, the angle of inclination of the carriage plate and the number of steps of holding the solenoid valve were chosen.

Organization of adequate feeding of farm animals, which is achieved by creating a strong food supply, high quality feed and their rational use when feeding animals, is the most important condition for increasing their productivity and maintaining health. However, the current state of the livestock feed supply does not fully meet the requirements of the industry and, without a number of transformations, cannot provide the necessary productivity. The task is not only to increase the production of feed, but also to improve its quality, which is inextricably linked with the technology of its preparation and the complexes of machines for the high-quality implementation of production processes for cleaning and preserving feed. The technical equipment of feed production, despite the measures taken, continues to be insufÏcient. In the context of a shortage of high-performance forage equipment and its aging, the need for effective organization of work comes to the fore. Practice shows that agricultural enterprises that harvest the first cuttings of grass in 15–20 days are always fully provided with high-quality feed. To increase the production of highly nutritious feed, a qualitative breakthrough is needed – the introduction into agricultural production of modern feed production technologies and machine complexes for their implementation. Each agricultural enterprise must have a detailed plan for harvesting grass and preparing feed, providing for various options in relation to weather conditions, operational maneuvering of technical means at the level of agricultural enterprises and regions, mandatory financial incentives for meeting the volumes and ensuring the quality of feed. In a set of measures to improve the quality of grass feed and provide livestock with plant protein, the harvesting and preparation of feed from grass is of utmost importance. At this technological stage there are reserves for reducing crop losses and reducing the cost of feed. In this regard, the article presents the rationale for the organization of work and the scheme for forming windrows with a belt rake.

The article identifies factors influencing the quality of prepared feed: weather conditions; optimal timing for harvesting herbs; cutting height; duration of field drying or drying of the mown mass to the required humidity; quality of raking of dried grass mass; degree of grinding of the applied mass; quality of laid haylage and silage; rapid compaction of grass feed to the required size; fermentation process; high-quality storage and retrieval with minimal oxidation; Theoretical studies of the main operational and technological parameters of the belt rake were carried out.

The article presents theoretical and experimental studies to establish the dependence of the grain recovery coefÏcient on the degree of deformation at the first stage, taking into account the degree of deformation at the first stage during two-stage grinding. As a result, a decrease in the recovery coefÏcient was revealed when using preliminary grinding: for wheat from 0.50 (for whole grain) to 0.19 (for pre-crushed); for rye from 0.47 to 0.18; for triticale from 0.49 to 0.19; for barley from 0.53 to 0.21; for oats from 0.43 to 0.16. The obtained results show that with two-stage grinding, preliminary grinding at the first stage allows to reduce the grain recovery coefÏcient, which increasesthe amount of energy spent on deformation,thereby increasing the intensity of grinding at the second stage.
