Handling equipment - Receiving technology | PS 511

Gentle and quick remove from stock, ergonomical and maneuverable

The potato scooper, type PS 511, picks up the crop from the storage floor with high performance and transfers it to the following conveyors. The Scooper with its range of 11 m and a belt width of 50 cm convinces with its high throughput rate. Infinitely height adjustment at the discharge side for maximum gentle crop handling. The infinitely conveyor speed adjustment allows an optimum adoption to the various conditions. The hydraulic steering and the hydraulic drive provide a comfortable, fast and precise positioning of the machine. The infinitely variable adaptation of the range makes it possible to shift the position of the Scooper without having to move the storage line.

Benefits

Gentle crop-removal from storage

The infinitely variable adjustment of the conveyor speed allows optimum adaptation to various conditions as well as high throughput rates. SoftFlow can be installed at all transfer points. SoftFlow is the simple solution for a gentle and crop-protecting transfer from one conveyor to the next via soft, flexible and self-cleaning PU-fingers.

Comfortable workplace

The wheel drives and the pick-up conveyor are operated via hydraulic hand lever valves. For an optimal view of the intake area, the ergonomic driver's seat offers a high level of comfort even for long working days.

Gentle conveying.

The trough-shaped belt with its so-called "walking side walls" (without differential speed to the frame of the conveyor) enables gentle conveying of the crop and a high transport capacity. 

Hydraulic drive

The hydraulic drive ensures maximum torque.

Scooping of stored crop

The stored crop is gently lifted by a pick-up conveyor and thus passes gently onto a following conveyor.

Mobile, half-round rail

For easy adaptation to downstream equipment, the discharge can be adjusted infinitely in height. The large swivelling angle between the Potato Scooper and the telescopic belt allows flexible positioning. The mobile, half-round rail enables a simple setting of a fix discharge point for downstream conveyors.

Closed and strong frame construction

The strong, closed design of the frame allows all rotating parts, such as rollers, to be protected for long service life.

Optimum crop flow

Optimum crop flow due to an infinitely variable belt speed.

• Trough-shaped belt and active side panels achieve gentle conveying
• Closed and strong frame construction ensures long lifetime
• Height adjustable at the discharge side for easy integration into the line
