TEAM TRAKTEHooking & Pulling" DREAM is not what you see in your sleep, a dream is something which doesn't let you sleep." Grease, mud, glory is the dream that drives us to excellence every year. For the past 3 years SAE TKMCE has been participating in the Tractor Design Competition under the Southern Section. We, TEAM TRAKTE is a group of 25 young undergrad students from different branches and semesters. Our collective efforts have propelled us to AIR 2 after the meticulous improvement from AIR 4 in the previous season. SAE TDC is meant to design, engineer, prototype and demonstrate on a limited test track, a 17 HP general purpose chassis-based agricultural tractor with potential use in the field of recreation, a small farming and municipal use with a price tag of 2.7 lakh based on an annual sale of 20,000 units per year.As the competition name suggests, the focus is centered around the design features and calculations. The design, in turn, is documented by way of a complete manufacturing drawing of all the parts and assemblies, with individual costing and engineering materials, accompanied by a project report.
