Dewulf: new version of trailed potato harvester adapted to very dry conditions

Dewulf has expanded the range of its successful R2060 series, the 2-row trailed potato harvester. Thanks to new options, it can be adapted to markets with a very dry climate, where stones and dry clods are found. The system has already proven itself on the R3060 self-propelled harvester and has now been developed for the trailed models.

The J versions of the R2060 use a "J"-shaped elevator instead of the classic "O"-shaped elevator ring. This innovative design provides more space in the upper section and allowed us to keep the lower part of the machine low and to fit either a flat studded belt with 4-rangées fingers or a deflector roller system in the upper section.

Thanks to these two quickly interchangeable systems, the machine is even more versatile and can tackle the most difficult field conditions. In addition to increasing performance in dry conditions, this new design makes the machine even more open and accessible. With this machine, Dewulf aims to meet the growing demand from countries with a dry, continental climate. The first machines have been put into operation with great success in Argentina and Turkey.

Like all R2060, the J versions can be fitted with quickly interchangeable cleaning modules in the lower section. The available modules include a classic sieving belt, axial rollers or the Easy-Clean module. The clod-breaking finger system can also be replaced in a few minutes with deflector rollers to suit other types of crops. The rollers are thus fitted when soil conditions are easier or when carrots or onions are to be harvested.

All of these modules, in the lower and upper sections of the machine, offer endless possibilities. The goal was to give owners of a Dewulf machine the assurance that their machine is perfectly suited to each of their conditions.
