Potato Technology- Separating
Grimme - Model BF / BFL 200 - Potato Separation System
The first step of the separation system is to set up the beds. Two basic models are available for the various soil conditions. The large BF plough body for use especially on medium to heavy soils with big stones and large amount on clods. Or the BFL plough body with long side shapers to keep the loose soil in the bed, preventing it from falling back into the furrow. It is possible to combine both bodies with bed loosening tines to work in non-prepared soils.
Grimme - Model BF / BFL 400 - Potato Separation System
The first step of the separation system is to set up the beds. Two basic models are available for the various soil conditions. The large BF plough body for use especially on medium to heavy soils with big stones and large amount on clods. The BFL plough body with long side mouldboards is recommended for light soils to keep the loose soil in the bed, preventing it from falling back into the furrow. It is possible to combine both bodies with bed loosening tines to work in non-prepared soils.
Potato Technology- Planting
Grimme - Model GL 32 E - Potato Planting Machine
The GL 32 E, simple to operate and robust technology enables a high efficiency in the field. The compact machine suits also small tractors. The GRIMME professional planting element is the right choice for a very precise and even planting distance. Different setting options of the machine together with good calibrated seed enable a high planting speed. The GL 32 E is available with following row width: 75, 80 or 90 cm.
Grimme - Model GL 32 F - Potato Planting Machine
The GL 32 F convinces with the various options as hopper extension, fertiliser box, ridge shaping unit (cage roller or shaping board) or moving floor unit. Therefore it ideally suits the professional potato grower with smaller field sizes. The GRIMME professional planting element is the right choice for a very precise and even planting distance. Different setting options of the machine together with good calibrated seed enable a high planting speed. The GL 32 F is available with following row width: 75, 80, 85 or 90 cm.
Potato Technology- Soil Cultivation
Grimme - Model GR 300 / GR 360 - Rotary Tiller
The rotary tiller type GR 300, mounted in the rear or in the front of the tractor, is suitable as a full width tiller for an optimum seedbed preparation for the cultivation of various vegetables and potatoes. An ideal prepared seedbed is the prerequisite for optimum development of the seed resp. planting tubers. Thanks to intensive soil cultivation, the horizon for rooting is optimally prepared so that undisturbed growth of the crop can be ensured. The large number of tines and the high speed of the rotor produce a well crumbled soil structure in fields without stones. With its smaller rotor diameter the rotary tiller type GR 300 requires less tractor power as the rotary hiller GF 400. The combination with a GL 420, GL 430 or GL 420 Exacta is also possible.
Beet Technology- Seed Drill
Grimme - Model MATRIX 1200 - Seed Drill
The latest generation of the MATRIX series impresses with its exact depth guidance, precise singling and depositing as well as convenient operation. The 12-row or 18-row mechanical precision seeder can be used for seeding beet, canola-seed and seed of root chicory. Thanks to the new parallelogram suspension, the seeding unit is guided precisely in the row and, thanks to the additional coulter pressure available, even in difficult soil conditions. The machine is suitable for conventional seeding (after ploughing) and mulch seeding (with reduced tillage), using a row width of 45 or 50 cm. A wide range of different caster wheels is available for various soil conditions.
Beet Technology - Harvesting
Grimme - Model BM 300 - Six-Row Trailed Defoliator
The defoliator type BM 300 is a six-row trailed defoliator equipped with a steel flail shaft and two cleaning shafts. The machine is mainly used in a so-called two-phase harvesting process for beets, chicory roots and celeriac. The leaf is chopped at full width of the machine and deposited Inline between the (beet) rows. Row widths between 45 cm and 50 cm resp. 18" and 20" available for the BM 300.
Beet Technology - Self-Propelled Harvesting
Grimme - Model REXOR 6200 - Beet Harvesting Machine
The REXOR series sets new standards in harvesting beet, chicory roots and celeriac. The new digging unit, the digital SmartView video system and the unique defoliator, type GRIMME FM, focus on protecting the crop and reducing the driver`s workload. The two-axle REXOR 6200 can be equipped with either Oppel wheels or with walking shares, and four different defoliation systems.
Vegetable Technology - Carrot
Grimme - Model KP 1700 - Carrot Harvest Preparation Machine
High speed and very flexible flails enable the machine to realise clean work with high output. The housing can be equipped with a discharge of the haulm to the right or to the left, depending on the operating conditions. The flail shafts can be equipped with the award-winning change system, called "Quick-Fix" to change the rubber flails for different requirements in a few, easy steps. For a perfect result of haulm topping and to improve the driver`s comfort, an automatic depth control including a levelling adjustment is available as an option. Two feeler wheels permanently measure the height of the ridge resp. the bed, and thus enable individual adaptation to the conditions of use.
Vegetable Technology - Onion
Grimme - Model VT 170 - Onion Topper
The onion topper VT 170 is used for an efficient haulm reduction and pre-harvest treatment before windrowing. The machine can be used for both front- and rear attachment. The rotating blade sets with their innovative geometry create a high suction effect, which sets up the haulm before it is cut off by the blades. The very sensitive height guidance of the onion topper causes the machine to run very smoothly and ensures a constant cutting height at all times. With the topper, type VT 170, beds can be treated within a track widths of 150 to 180 cm. The machine is designed for combination with the GRIMME windrower, Type WV.
