This paper presents improvements to the pile seed transmission system of a bunker dozer device, aiming to enhance its efficiency, reliability, and operational longevity. The proposed enhancements include the integration of an advanced conveyor system, the incorporation of state-of-the-art sensors, and the optimization of the auger design. Upgrading the conveyor system with durable, wear-resistant materials and implementing variable speed controls can provide precise seed flow management. Advanced sensors, such as optical, laser, and weight sensors, are proposed to monitor seed flow and detect blockages or irregularities in real-time. Additionally, optimizing the helix angle of the auger can significantly increase the efficiency of seed transportation. These improvements are expected to reduce maintenance requirements, increase operational efficiency, and ensure consistent seeding rates, thereby enhancing the overall performance of bunker dozer devices in agricultural and industrial applications.
