Regulations for Testing of Agricultural Machinery

Testing of Agricultural Machinery

Two categories of tests viz. (1) COMMERCIAL & (2) CONFIDENTIAL will be carried out at Farm Machinery Training and Testing Institutes.

1. COMMERCIAL TESTS are for establishing performance characteristics of machines that are in or ready for commercial production. The following types of commercial tests will be under taken:

  1. Initial Commercial Tests on indigenous or imported prototype machines ready for commercial production.
  2. Batch Test on machines, which have already undergone Initial Commercial Test and/or are being manufactured commercially in the country.

2. CONFIDENTIAL TESTS are for providing confidential information on the performance of machines, whether ready for commercial production or not or to provide any special data that may be required by the manufacturer / applicant.

I.GENERAL REGULATIONS GOVERNING ALL TESTS:

  1. Machines may be tested at the request in writing of the manufacturers / accredited importers referred to as "Applicant" herein after.
  2. Tests will be carried out at the discretion of the Director, Southern Region Farm Machinery Training & Testing Institute, hereinafter referred to as “Testing Authority” to whom application on prescribed form may be addressed.
  3. All the tests will be conducted as per BIS Test Code. If for any machine / component, the BIS test code is not available, the test code shall be framed by the Testing Authority whose decision shall be final.
  4. If a machine is withdrawn, permission of the Testing Authority will have to be obtained. In such a case the test fee plus all other expenditure, as indicated above for test conducted, shall be charged.
  5. (i) Parts and assemblies of machines worn out or damaged during the test shall be replaced / repaired by the Applicant free of cost within the time specified by the Testing Authority.(ii) In case some parts are required by the Testing Authority for destructive tests, these shall be arranged free of cost by the applicant.(iii) In case, any services are provided by the Testing Authority, these will be charged for.
  6. The cost of laying foundation, fixtures, etc. which are not normally available at the Institute and which are found necessary for working of the machine under test and all special store items shall be borne by the applicant.
  7. Parts and assemblies of machines worn out or damaged during the test may be handed over at the discretion of the Testing Authority only after the test report has been released.
  8. The applicant will make his own arrangements to collect the machine within one month of intimation by the Testing Authority. If the applicant fails to remove the machine in this period, the applicant will be liable to payment of ground rent as fixed by the Testing Authority for a period not exceeding four months. After the expiry of 3 months, one month notice will be served on the applicant by the Testing Authority. If the applicant fails to remove the machine within this period, the machine will become the property of the Institute and may be disposed of by auction at the discretion of the Testing Authority.
  9. If any un-patented machine or a machine in respect of which a proper application for patent has not been duly made, is submitted for test, it will not be published or disclosed to the public by the Testing Authority and the matter will be treated as confidential so that right of the inventor or a person claiming through him to get a patent for a machine is not prejudiced.
  10. If in the course of testing, a machine/ component, any invention and/or developments originate from the officers of the Farm Machinery Training & Testing Institute, the Government may at the discretion take out separate patents to protect the subject matter invented and/ or developed.
  11. If a machine submitted for confidential test has been tested as per relevant commercial test procedure and the procedure followed for commercial testing has been observed in all respects, then on the request in writing of the applicant, the confidential test report may be converted to Commercial.

II.ADDITIONAL REGULATIONS GOVERNING COMMERCIAL TESTS:

  1. If a machine is already in commercial production in India, the sample for batch test shall be new and be selected by the Testing Authority or his accredited representative at random from series production. No alteration / modification shall be allowed after its practical performance.
  2. If the test is related to some development work on which the Testing Institute is engaged, the whole or any part of the test fee may be remitted with the approval of the Ministry of Agriculture. No test fee or other charges will be levied for commercial testing of the machines.
  3. (i) The commercial test report may be used commercially by the applicant and may be published in full without any alteration or omission. No extract or abbreviated version shall be published without the written approval of the Testing Authority. (ii) The applicant may mention in advertisements that the machine/component has been tested at the Farm Machinery Training and Testing Institute (as the case may be) and invariably quote the number of the Test Report in the advertisement. All the pamphlets or advertisements meant for public should indicate only performance values observed by the Testing Authority.
  4. The Government of India reserve the right to publish or to communicate to any person or body the results either wholly or in part together with such comments and additional information as they think desirable.
  5. In case of machines which are marketed and are not tested for the benefit of the farmers, the Institute, on the direction of the government, will have the right to carryout commercial test on any such machine sold in the country and to publish the results thereof.
  6. In case of damage to or breakdown of any particular component during the course of testing, the applicant may replace the part with a new one having the same specifications. Testing Authority may, at its discretion, permit replacement of any component which the applicant has learnt, is defective on account of material or workmanship. However, replacement of complete assemblies shall not be permitted. If major breakdown occurs, necessitating replacement of major assemblies, the applicant may be allowed to withdraw the machine.
  7. In case the machine is withdrawn from test because of reasons stated above, the applicant shall have to submit another machine after incorporation of required changes or replacements. The test report of the first machine containing the results of test conducted and clearly stating the reasons for non-completion of tests shall be released immediately after withdrawal of the machine from test. The test report of second machine shall contain a reference to the testing of the earlier machine.

III.ADDITIONAL REGULATIONS GOVERNING CONFIDENTIAL TESTS

  1. Results obtained will be the property of the applicant and will not be communicated to any person or body without the applicant's consent. The applicant shall neither publish the report nor any extract from it, nor divulge the test results to any other person or body without prior written approval of the Testing Authority.
