A fast and precise mechanical weeding that works even under difficult circumstances: these are some of the solutions that Calderoni offers to fruit growers, through the Bio Rotor system. The distinguishing trait of this mechanical weeding is the extendable wire system, which allows you to work not only close to the trunks without causing damages, but also in proximity of drip irrigation systems.
"Even with high-density planting - explained Alessandro Calderoni - Bio Rotor carries out a precise mechanical weeding without damaging the plants. In the video displayed here, you can see both the high-speed processing, and the precision and ability to operate without worrying about the irrigation system.”
The wires are very flexible and this allows almost a total cleaning even in the area near the trunks. This is useful not only in organic farming, but also in integrated pest management, as the use of herbicides is becoming increasingly restricted. The hood-shaped cover secures the wire in a special position to prevent contact with the trunk.
It is available in the double version, which allows you to work only once for each row, reducing working time and fuel consumption. Bio Rotor operates with a rapid rotary movement (2.000 revolutions per minute) of the brush cutters, on a non horizontal level (like traditional brush cutters), but vertical. This minimizes possible damages to plant trunks during weed control.
