Vanhoucke Machine Engineering products

Higher harvesting speed than the standard leek harvester. This is possible because the disk places the leek nicely on the picking table. The operator receives the leek in packets. Every disk equipped harvester has a longer harvest conveyor, so there is room for more instruments. The corner between conveyor and soil is reduced with the long conveyor, and that avoids leek damage.

This harvester is designed for family businesses who are looking for a robust machine with a long operating lifetime. The machine has it’s own hydraulic circuit, only the cylinders to control the height need oil from the tractor. The large shaking device, conveyor and picking table are steplesly variable in speed. All cylinders are controlled by a cobra switch. The harvester is equipped with the necessary lights to travel on the road.

The knife is adjustable in height by a spindle or optional by hydraulic engine.A small shaking device at the front of the machine (to clean out the ground in between the roots). This shaking device has a horizontal axis movement; therefore the machine has great ground removing capacity.A great shaking device underneath the clip bindings.
