Onion technology - Harvest preparation | ASA-LIFT OT

Onion toppers for beds up to 225 cm width

The ASA-LIFT OT is an onion topper for the efficient pre-harvest treatment before windrowing. This machine is mounted with a three-point linkage and can be used in front- or rear attachment. The rotating knifes create a suction effect to the superficial parts of the crop, which leads to an improved, exact cutting of the haulm. The haulm is then ejected to the side. The hydraulically adjustable support wheels ensure a correct cutting height. Different feelers can be mounted to automate the height guidance (option).

Benefits

• The haulm, lying on the surface of the ground, is lifted up before cutting.
• The lateral discharge of the onion haulm provides / leads to..
• better drying of onions
• reduced spotting on the onions
• optionally available disc coulters cut off the pressed haulm at the edge of the bed
• an optimal cutting height can be ensured by the automatic height guidance (option)
