Hand vibration analysis due to agricultural machine vibration

Resumo

This study aims to present vibration’s effects on the human hand of agricultural machine drivers, often
neglected, which are related to work and cause serious health issues. The chosen equipment does not produce an
extreme vibration, such as cement breakers, in order to show that even minor vibration can generate stress and
strain on the body. In addition, the continuous exposure to this situation can cause fatigue, unpredictable health
issues, performance decrease, nausea, among others. The vibration used in this article was smaller than the ones
found in the literature.
