The heavy Zeeland sea clay is a difficult soil to work. The clay has tough sticky property, causing problems in the harvesting jaw during potato harvesting. The AP-LIFT technology was specially developed to solve these problems. The system actively works the potato ridges inward and spreads them over the belt at an adjustable speed, preventing the harvesting jaw from poaching.
The best way to harvest potatoes
Revolutionary AP-LIFT design
The AP-LIFT system is designed with user in mind. This design philosophy translates into a maintenance free, modular design that can be fully adjusted with a single spanner.
Hillside harvesting is often a challenge for many arable farmers and contractors. Traditional harvesters often have difficulty harvesting against hillsides. The AP-LIFT system offers a solution here. This is because the system requires significantly less tractive effort compared to fixed chisels. In addition, lighter tractors can be used, which is beneficial for soil structure and saves costs on fuel and machine maintenance.
Stones can be quite a challenge when harvesting potatoes and loading onions. The fragility of the harvester comes into play when harvesting large stones. With the AP elevator system, some of this vulnerability is removed by the method of harvesting.
Insurance of harvesting capacity
Recent years have shown that weather is not predictable and can ruin a harvesting period, or shift it months backwards. The AP-LIFT system provides the opportunity to keep harvest during these harsh conditions, without clogging the machine. Customers indicated that up to 15% of the crop would have failed if not for the AP-LIFT system. In these situations, the return on investment is less than one day.
