The Rotosark rotor pair, working synergistically with the Rotostar rotor pair, operates directly on the transplant row without damaging the root or leaf system. It uproots weeds more effectively in the intra-plant spacing, particularly in head-forming crops.

 

 

 

Weeding with the synergic pair of Rotostar rotors mounted on the working unit is ideal for transplanted and direct-seeded crops grown on ridges or beds (e.g. lettuce, cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, radicchio, sugarloaf chicory, fennel, and others), with inter-row spacing starting from 40 cm and above.

HYDRAULIC STEERING SYSTEM WITH JOYSTICK AND CAMERA + MONITOR 

A high-contrast HD camera mounted in front of 2/3 sown rows projects images onto a 12V 10’5 monitor located in the cab.

Used in aid of RTK automatic guidance on the tractor: the tractor driver controls the direction of the machine from the cab by acting on the sideshifter, precisely correcting any errors in trajectory.

 

AUTOMATIC GUIDANCE SYSTEM WITH CAMERA

A special camera, placed in front of the machine, recognizes the prevailing “green” color of the plants and the prevailing “red” color of the ground.

A special software processes the two preset colors, selecting two distinct areas that allow the program to correct and maintain the trajectory of the machine thanks to the translating frame.

The operator thanks a monitor placed in the cabin, will see the panoramic image on the transplanting rows and at the same time the path processed by the software.
