Rubber, the product of this age is cultivated throughout the world with intense care.

The use of rubber is increasing throughout the world day by day. Rubber has got a remarkable share in the agricultural economy

Recently a situation has arisen where there are no labourers for tapping the rubber latex from the rubber trees. A serious shortage is felt in this field.

Even if labourers are available they are not skilled enough for tapping the latex efficiently. Also they won't stick on to the field for a long time. Rubber planters find it difficult to get skilled labourers for tapping the latex and have to afford the higher rates of labour charges.

Background and The Importance

As the solution these problem, our company create a device called for Rubber Tapping Device. It a device that:Can help the laborer to get latex in huge amountCan smooth the laborer's jobLess time required to collect the latex because this

device can work automatically fasterThe laborers just need to inspect the device whie

collecting the latex

continuous….

The rubber tapper can tap a rubber tree much easier without less training. This device with the help of user manual, it will take only one day to master it.

The raw rubber can be extracted from the rubber tree more efficiently with this device. By using this device, the cutting on the tree is constant, so there will be no part with deep cutting because too deep the cutting, it can kill the rubber tree.

Then, this device is affordable for large scale rubber plantation also for the small scale rubber plantation. If this device is being use by the employee with large scale plantation, the employee can increase the profit by lowering labour cost.

The durability of this device is high which the main body is made from aluminium and the blade made from stainless steel that can withstand toward the unpredictable weather in Malaysia.

Advantages

We hope that our invention which is rubber tapping device will be able to help rubber tapper farmer to extract the rubber more efficiently.

Hopefully, our product can bring great benefit to all people in the rubber tapper industry.

Limitation of this device. It maintenance is too costly. The blade itself has to be change and the joint of this device must be lubricant regularly.

In the future, we are going to replace the blade with some other material that can withstand the weather in Malaysia but with the same or lower cost.

Conclusion

THE END.
