Sour cherries and plums harvester FELIX/Z

Cherry harvester tailored to your needs

The FELIX/Z cherry and plum harvester is a full-row machine designed to work in orchards cultivated according to the row technology and therefore adapted to combine harvesting. The FELIX/Z stone fruit harvester is a machine hitched to a tractor, cooperating with tractors with a minimum power of 80 HP. The device is equipped with components that guarantee effective and efficient work while obtaining high quality of harvested fruit. All working units of the FELIX/Z cherry harvester are hydraulically driven, making the machine easy to use and also allowing for quick adjustment of working parameters to current needs. The machine is also equipped with steerable wheels and a hydraulically controlled drawbar, which significantly simplifies all maneuvers.

How does a cherry harvester work?

The principle of operation of the FELIX/Z cherry harvester is based on a system of 2 vertical shakers, which cause the tree branches to vibrate, causing the fruit to fall off. The harvester, pulled by a tractor, drives over the tree, which is then introduced into the harvester’s shaking zone. The fruit falls onto flexible conveyors located below the shaking unit. It is worth emphasizing that the machine has been equipped with an additional system of covers and seals, which prevents fruit losses. Next, the fruit is transferred to the cherry harvester’s cleaning unit. The cherries or plums, free of impurities, are placed in box pallets placed on the working platform.

Which cherry harvester should you choose?

In addition to the FELIX/Z trailed harvester, the company’s offer also includes the FELIX self-propelled cherry harvester and the FELIX/Z harvester with a side conveyor feeding the fruit to the second row. In the case of harvesting from larger areas, it is worth considering buying a machine that will allow for continuous work, without the need for unnecessary downtime.
