Abstract
Self-propelled platforms designed for soil sampling represent a remarkable technological advancement in the field of soil research, providing efficient and precise collection of essential data regarding soil composition. These platforms are equipped with advanced technologies and sophisticated sampling systems, offering researchers the opportunity to obtain detailed data in an automated and replicable manner. In this article, we will delve into the technical features of self-propelled platforms for soil sampling and their significance in advancing soil sciences research. In this paper, a mathematical model is described to aid in the design of the propulsion system of self-propelled platforms intended for soil sample collection under conditions of movement on horizontal or sloping terrain. With this mathematical model, the forces required for the platform to move can be calculated, considering the constraints specific to each project. When the project is completed, and key parameters such as the total weight of the platform, dimensions, payload weight, and transmission gear ratios are known, the minimum power required for the engine to move the platform can be calculated.
