With the new scalping system, more beet is harvested and the beets are better protected against losses of yield and more importantly sugar.
Thanks to the defoliator, all the leaves on the sugar beets are accurately removed, leaving the grower with exactly the crop they need to send to the factory. The ProtectPlus parallel head system ensures that every beet is cut to the correct height. Larger beets require more topping than smaller beets, which is why the defoliator is set higher, creating more space between the scalper and the control comb. This means that taller beets are not hit by the defoliator and that the scalpers leave a perfectly chopped beet behind. When a beet is perfectly topped, it is better protected against sugar loss, because the energy from the beet does not go to the damaged part during storage.
As much yield as possible with perfectly scalped beets
Each beet is individually approached by a parallel mounted scalper knife; large beets a larger knife, small beets a smaller knife
Adjustable feelers
Durable and sharp hardened, self-sharpening knives
Most sugar in the beet, most nutrients on the land
Agrifac beet technologies
Following the row perfectly, AutoSteerPlus
With AutoSteerPlus, both axles are fully automatically controlled under all conditions. The beet rows are therefore perfectly followed. That leads to a perfectly harvested beet.
Based on the proven concept of independent eccentric moving lifting shares, the ExcenterPlus lifting system is developed to lift the beets in an optimal way at high working speeds and for superior capacity, even under extreme conditions.
With the new scalping system more beet is harvested and the beets are better protected against losses of energy and sugar. This all creates a higher yield.
Agrifac beet harvesting means: reliability, quality and capacity. Due to its long cleaning path, the CarePlus system offers unparalleled cleaning and throughput capacity. In addition, the beet is properly taken care of.
