Harvesting adjustable shelves

Sh Harvesting shelves

The shelves are transforming the Slopehelper into the most advanced fruit harvesting machine. We have developed the adjustable shelves witch in combination with our base platform, represent the most modern and technically advanced system available for fruit harvesting.

The Slopehelper along with the harvesting shelves are a very compact combination for row width from 2,00 to 3,50 m and plant heights to a maximum of 4,00 m. The standard equipment and accessories range allow the complete harvesting system to be adapted to the individual needs of modern fruit and viticulture growers. They have been designed for simple and practical operation during the harvesting season.

How to use it

The six lateral platforms (two rear fixed platforms with a footrest height of 1,5 m + two medium adjustable platforms with a footrest height from 1,5 - 2,1 m + two front adjustable platforms with a footrest height from 0,8 - 1,5 m) permit picking at three picking levels in a very compact combination of base platform and adjustable harvesting shelves.

As many as six persons can work comfortably at the same time on six different shelves, independent of each other. Moreover, an optional you can select as many people as you want to collect at the ground level with the option follow me, and with the help of the front loader in accordance with the highest ergonomic standards.

Harvesting shelves storage is on a specially designed storage cradle. To get the shelves from it and attach it to the vehicle require a mini-garage crane or forklift. For further installation and adjustment, there is existing an optional, specially designed for them moveable cradle which allows easily maneuver and attach.

Once mounted on the vehicle, the basic platform turns into the most modern harvesting machine. After connect with two power sockets and plugs to the main system of the base platform on the board computer, will be shown a notification that lets you know the harvesting shelves are ready to maneuver. Guided by a joystick, for orchards or by the option follow me for the vineyards the movement of the entire platform is completely accurate and safe for all participants in the harvest as well as for the plantations.

Horizontal stabilization and self-adjusting cargo platform managing to guarantee a 0% of harvest losses.

Main advantages

• Low maintenance

Small amount of spare parts and transmission by electric actuators means less downtime and low operation costs.

• Silent operation

Powered by a high power, low voltage electric motors, which are the same in the basic platform and zero emitions will experience very quiet moving, which allows it operating day and night without disturbing the surroundings and do not harm the health to all participants around the vehicle.

• Automatic angle adjustment

The cargo platform to which the shelves are attached prevents the vehicle from rolling over. The center of gravity is always in the center and it always holds the harvesting shelfs and load all the time horizontally.

• 0% losses

Because it can maneuver on slopes up to 45 degrees (100% slopes) and thanks to the self-adjusting platform and carry a load of up to 2 tons, it can reach even the most inaccessible parts on the plantation.

• Precise tracking

Independent adjustment of the trajectory regardless of the landscape gives a perfect angle of inclination depending on the situation on the ground, and with the help of the side radar, keeping the same distance from the order of the plants.

• Completely electromechanical

In the harvesting system there is no drop of hydraulics, lubricants or other types of oils, which makes it the only fruit harvester of this type on the market.
