Fruit harvester machine Fulcrum

self-propelled

The Fulcrum Fresh Harvester is engineered from the ground up to be the most gentle harvester available today. Maximize your yield and minimize your time doing it. The A&B Fresh Harvester’s gentleness increases shelf life and maximizes cash flow from your fields. The tunnel throat opening is a spacious 63” wide – that’s right, over 5 feet – which helps minimize fruit loss before entering the tunnel. As the Fulcrum starts a row, it begins to gently part the bush in two. These parts are then delicately maneuvered through the rail system and into the to be continuously engaged for an extended period of time. This enable the horizontal rotary heads to carefully remove ripe fruit in a more consistent manner than any other harvester on the market. The guide rails also lower the bush closer to the sloped “No-Bruise” padded harvesting beds. In the picking zone, the berries have a minimal drop of only inches. As the bush exits the rotary heads, the guides gently return the bush to its original upright position. The Fulcrum is the most versatile Fresh Fruit Harvester available. In less than 2 hours, it can transition from a horizontal picking position to a traditional vertical picking position. The 60” wide tunnel entry allows for longer picking fingers, which also enables the rotary heads to be further apart and pick larger bushes more effectively. Ordinary harvesters use hard plastic or metal to catch the berries, which can bruise the fruit. The Fulcrum, on the other hand, uses a sloped “No-Bruise” padded harvesting bed along with “No-Bruise” padded catcher plates. These features dramatically improve the look and increase the shelf life of your fruit.
