Soft Touch 2 leaf remover
Simple and fast handling,
quality of manual work
SOFT TOUCH 2
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.
