Abstract :
In order to eradicate a tree stump, a robot that has six degrees of freedom is developed. In this paper the structure and function of an eradicating stump robot is introduced and analyzed. Furthermore, by the experiment it can be proved that the efficiency of the robot is very high and the ground surface destroyed by the robot is very small. At the same time, a seedling can be planted in the hole left after eradicating a stump. So it is very useful to eradicate stump in forest area.
