Tunnel maker is the revolutionary designed machine to build small tunnels for crop protection, which build hoops and covering the mulch in one pass.
This unique machine has 2 models: semi-automatic and full-automatic, they are all use the straight EPGF poles which are bent by robots inserting soil to form arcs, then cover the plastic mulch automatically.
The hoops width, distance and depth are easily adjusted in the field. The mulch can be laid for perfect shape and strong enough against 6 degrees wind.
Labour: 1 worker for dropping poles/semi-automatic; 1 supervisor/automatic.
Hydraulic foldeble mulch layer can be lift/lay down when passing pipes or valves in the field.
