Development of 2JC-350 automatic grafting machine with cut grafting method for vegetable seedling

To enhance manual grafting rate and survival ratio of vegetable seedling grafted in China, a semi-auto mechanical grafting machine has been developed with cut grafting method applied widely. The grafting success ratio of the grafting machine was markedly improved by means of applying a double fixing pins and decreasing the scion length extended from scion clip. The features of 2JC-350 grafting machine developed are as follows: easy operation; low cost, high grafting success rate more than 90% and high grafting rate of 350 seedlings per hour.
