Abstract

A design methodology was used to obtain devices for selective detachment of coffee fruits. The technical specifications of the desire product were taken into account, as well as the conditions offered by the coffee fruits in the branches. There were generated 33 viable options of which the three best qualified were selected for being explored. Then it was chosen the most viable option to be designed in detail. The final device was evaluated in lab conditions and the detached mass showed a mature fruits content of 60% and an immature fruits content of 20%.
