Products Details
The PB-66 gently picks the onions, tops them, loads them, and returns the tops and trash to the ground, all using only one operator. Using a 48' chain, the PB-66 can work a swath up to 66' wide. The PB-80 also uses a single operator to perform the same functions, its chain width is 62 ½' and it can work up to 80' in a single pass. The low-maintenance, self-propelled SP-80 is a direct loader that eliminates windrowing and provides the highest percentage of topping. It can pick up two 40' beds for a total width of 80' and gently load the onions at a rate of one to three tons per minute. The SP-80 is powered with a 190 hp turbo diesel engine and includes 31' wide high-traction flotation tires with four-wheel drive posi-traction for muddy or mucky conditions. Cab controls include the height and speed of the pick-up elevator, loading elevator height and speed, topper height and speed, ground speed, and blower velocity. Optional operations such as direct harvesting, pre-pulled topping harvesting, and non-topping loads, in addition to opening fields, are all available.
