Student Project Teams
ASAE 1/4 Scale Tractor Design and Pulling Competition
The goal of this project is to develop a machine which is compact in size, relatively inexpensive, and can harness the power of a specific supplied engine to develop maximum pulling performance for short periods of time. Students have the opportunity to apply the knowledge learned from their coursework to a real world engineering design project.
