Soft Touch 2 leaf remover

Simple and fast handling,
quality of manual work

The new Pellenc Soft Touch leaf remover is suitable for all vineyards. It removes the leaves from the vine cleanly and uniformly, just like by hand. Its simple design lets the user get started quickly and easily, and requires little maintenance. It also tracks the canopy with a sensor, which automatically manages the tool pressure on the trellising in real time. The berries are preserved intact!

The PELLENC leaf remover is very simple to set up and operate, and it took no time to learn how to use it.

Automatic tracking of the plant canopy increases the quality of leaf removal without the risk of damaging the berries. The swivel head means I can turn quickly at the end of the row and it lets me adjust the working height for each of my vineyard plots. It folds away very neatly for transport, and offers great comfort and visibility!

Even better, maintenance is greatly reduced thanks to its simple design.

Operation of leaf removing module

SUCTION

Leaves are sucked through the striations of the suction roller:

    • Intuitive controls

The suction roller is placed next to a feeding roller. Turning in opposite directions,

    • they catch the leaves.

at the rear, a roller brush:

    • that cleans the 2 rollers to reduce the build up of plant debris,
    • ejects whole leaves with no scattering of debris (fall by gravity)

This system limits the fouling of the fan, since the leaves do not pass through it.

AIR CIRCUIT

The fan draws through the upper and lower part of the suction roller, as well as through all the striations:

    • sticks the leaves more effectively to the roller
    • This new system limits clogging of the roller

This wide suction zone ensures:

    • a uniform leaf-removal rate along the whole height of the roller, without loss of working height

SOFT TOUCH

The “Soft Touch” automatic row-tracking system

The suction module is automatically aligned to the plant canopy surface: it moves towards and away
according to the pressure applied to the sensor.

The Soft Touch system ensures:

  • A constant leaf-removal rate (an unbroken swath of leaves on the ground);
  • Full protection of the grape thanks to the responsiveness of the system;
  • Unparalleled driving comfort, with jolting eliminated without affecting the leaf-removal rate;
  • Override on joystick so the operator can take over when there is no vegetation.

RESULT

Leaf-removing quality as if done by hand.

The row-tracking probe of the SOFT TOUCH leaf remover guarantees total protection of the grape with its wide surface area, and a constant leaf-removal rate with its high responsiveness.

The driver can just focus on driving, Soft Touch does the rest!

MAINTENANCE

Easy cleaning

Washing the module is very easy, with the 2 opening flaps which give direct access to the fan (very little clogging because the leaves do not pass through it) or to the suction zone.
