Abstract

In this research, a grafting robot with plug in method is used. Plug in method is a method that uses a tapered axis for scion and a tapered hole for stock as processing style of conjugation parts. In the case of handling a grafting seedling, gripping a stem is doing with simple mechanisms of devising to reduce damages to stems. For example, providing cushions between gripper and stem, and fitting a gripper to a stem. Both scions and stocks need cutting, but there is bigger influence for scions than stocks, so problems of cutting scions and special qualities of grippers are necessary to investigate.
