With these harvesting devices, a significant increase in productivity can be achieved in the short juice fruit harvesting season, while at the same time increasing profitability.

The picking machines / collecting machines are similar in their dimension to very strong, small road sweepers. They are very easy to use and with them fruit harvesting is really fun. They are suitable for use in orchards as well as on plantations.

The easy-to-operate device has a very good collection performance of up to 99 %, depending on the soil conditions. The rubber rotor, of which the speed is infinitely variable, picks up the fruit and conveys it broadly into the inserted plastic basket, which is removed to the rear.

With the hand-operated OB 50 or 70 you can pick different kinds of fruit such as apples or pears. Nuts can also be harvested with an optional nut kit. In addition, an operating hours counter is available. When collecting/picking, work is always carried out from the outside towards the tree trunk. For individual trees clockwise, so that the support wheel and the left drive wheel always run outside. In this way, no fruits are squashed by the wheels. If there are a lot of leaves or mulched grass, the working speed is 0.5 – 3 km/h, as the best cleaning quality is then achieved. In other conditions it can be operated at a much higher speed.

Benefits

• very manoeuvrable and clearly arranged, due to short, compact design
• very good cleaning of the fruit from leaves and grass
• the steel parts are coated with plastic. Compared with conventional coatings, a much higher mechanical stability and UV resistance is achieved
• optimum grass length between 15 – 25 cm
• our machines achieve the highest picking rates / collection rates (almost 100 %) without damaging the fruit through the gentlest picking of the rubber lips at minimum and maximum fruit density. during the picking or collection process, the fruit is cleaned of leaves and grass and is cleaned as if by hand
• the device is very easy-to-operate
