This thesis shows the process of developing a trolley for animal feeding. It describes the process by which the trolley is designed with a general overview of conveyers. It depicts a market overview of existing similar trolleys, on which this trolley is based. It describes four different concepts of feed dosing acquired through a morphological matrix and three concepts of pushing and cleaning of fodder. One concept was chosen based on evaluations of the different concepts. Detailed solutions of dosing, storage of fodder were prepared for the chosen concept, including simulations of load capacity of the construction of the trolley and a description of a built concept made for testing. It also describes the ideas for improvement based on results of the tests of the built concept. The thesis shows new detailed solutions for feed dosing and a new construction of the trolley, for an improved concept. The improved concept also depicts simulations of load capacity of the improved construction of the trolley. The thesis also shows the production of the improved concept for testing purposes.
