Contribution to the building of an equipment design method in developing countries using an analysis of traditional pratices

In order to enhance efficiency of local design and manufacturing of smallscale equipment in Developing Countries, produced in the field of agriculture and food-processing, the authors have analyzed traditional practices of equipment designing and examined the strategy of the actors involved. Twenty-three equipment design histories have been analyzed in terms of organization and interaction between design actors. They outlined generally revolve around an individual design carried out by an alone person with mechanical engineering skills and a lack of analysis of the final user environment. The present work has been used to determine a new method of equipment design taking into account the socio-technical environment.
