The main objective of this study is to design tractor trailer capable of meeting the customers’ requirements and suitable for rough conditions to be used in combination with a farm tractor in India. The final concept is capable of providing arrangements for attaching the trailer to the tractor easily by pickup hitch, stronger and lighter supporting frame, option of spare tyre etc. Furthermore, the resulting product design can be sent via the Internet to customers for comments or marketing purposes. The virtual prototyping (VP) system therefore facilitates advanced product design and helps reduce product development time and cost significantly. }, journal = {International Journal of Mechanical and Mechatronics Engineering}, volume = {8}, number = {8}, year = {2014}, pages = {1424 - 1430}, ee = {https://publications.waset.org/pdf/9999077}, url = {https://publications.waset.org/vol/92}, bibsource = {https://publications.waset.org/}, issn = {eISSN: 1307-6892}, publisher = {World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology}, index = {Open Science Index 92, 2014}, }
