I need a broadcast-style spreader purpose-built for pasture management that can handle well-aged, slightly moist compost without clogging, bridging, or leaving windrows. The unit should throw an even pattern across a workable swath so I can cover paddocks efficiently in a single pass, and it must be gentle enough not to pulverise the organic matter. Key requirements • Material handled: screened compost, medium moisture content • Terrain: undulating pasture, tractor-pulled (80 HP-100 HP tractor, 540 RPM PTO available and remote hydraulics) • Mechanism: true broadcast (spinner) system with adjustable gate and pattern control I am looking for complete engineering drawings and a concise parts list ready for fabrication, including bearings, chain drives or hydraulic motors, hopper specs, and corrosion-resistant finishes. A brief user guide describing calibration for different application rates will round out the package. I’ll review the design against two acceptance points: 1) ability to spread 5 t/ha uniformly over a 10 m swath during a field test, and 2) hopper emptying cleanly without bridging when loaded with damp compost. Provide files in STEP and PDF, plus any native CAD you use (SolidWorks preferred but not mandatory).

Hi there, Thank you for sharing details on your pasture compost broadcast spreader concept. We understand the goal is a tractor-pulled, spinner-type unit that spreads screened, moist compost evenly across a wide swath without bridging or clogging, suited to your 80-100 HP PTO and hydraulic setup. Our usual approach for this kind of mechanical product work is to move through clear staged steps - starting with concept layout and mechanism sizing, followed by detailed modelling and drawing development, with a review round before finalising. We work with industry-standard tools for mechanical design and technical documentation, and can align file formats and drawing detail to what your fabricator needs. Before finalising scope and price, it would help to discuss the hopper capacity, drivetrain preference (chain vs hydraulic motor), and any reference dimensions you have. Feel free to message us on https://www.freelancer.in/u/faisal8071 so we can align on the details. Regards, Ar. Faisal Saif

Designing agricultural equipment requires a balance between durability, manufacturability, and real-world field performance. With 4–5 years of experience in mechanical CAD design, fabrication drawings, and agricultural equipment development, I've recently worked on machinery and production-ready assemblies requiring precise engineering documentation. Why hire me? I'll develop a fabrication-ready broadcast compost spreader optimized for handling medium-moisture screened compost while minimizing bridging and preserving material structure. The design will include a PTO-driven spinner system, adjustable feed gate, pattern control, hopper geometry for reliable material flow, corrosion-resistant construction recommendations, drivetrain details (bearings, shafts, chains or hydraulic components), and a complete bill of materials. You'll receive 3D CAD assemblies, STEP files, SolidWorks/native CAD files (or equivalent), detailed manufacturing drawings in PDF, and a concise calibration guide covering application rates and operating adjustments. The design will be engineered to meet your field-performance targets, including 5 t/ha over a 10 m swath and clean hopper discharge without material bridging. Let's chat for further details.

Hi, this spreader needs more than a hopper and twin spinners. The critical risks are damp compost bridging at the gate, inconsistent metering, and an uneven pattern that cannot achieve 5 t/ha across the required 10 m swath. I understand the goal is a fabrication-ready, tractor-pulled design compatible with 540 RPM PTO and available remote hydraulics. My workflow would be to: define compost bulk density, particle size, moisture range, and target travel speed develop the hopper geometry, agitation and metering system to promote clean emptying size the spinner layout and adjustable gate for controlled application and pattern tuning prepare organized 3D CAD, fabrication drawings, parts list, STEP/PDF files, and a concise calibration guide I bring 6+ years of detail-focused CAD and 3D modeling experience, with an emphasis on accurate dimensions, clear assemblies, organized files, and practical documentation. I would structure the work around design review milestones, with field performance confirmed through calibration and testing rather than assumed from CAD alone. Could you provide the approximate compost particle-size range, bulk density, and preferred hopper capacity?
