The operation
- Frame with two disc modules equipped with blades cutting through shearing movement. The discs are driven by two hydraulic motors. All the pre-pruning functions are centralized in a hydraulic block. The opening and closing of the modules is done by an electric button.
- Rotation of discs at a speed of 280 rpm. for an oil flow going from 24 to 40 l/Min.
- Working speed up to 10 km/h.
- Two versions available (short and long frame) with stacks of 6 to 28 discs and gap of 60 or 90 mm.
The advantages
- The shape of the disc ensures a good grip on the vine shoots and a regular feeding of the machine, without damaging the trellis. The spacing of 60 mm. between the discs favours the cleaning of the wires.
- Little maintenance, low weight (from 145 to 270 kgs) and low flow
- Reduced sprays because of low rotational speeds.
- Bottom part of the discs totally flat, preventing the buds on the trailers from ripping off.
