The aluminium boom, both robust and lightweight, can be folded sideways 2 to 3 times, depending on the working width. The boom is mounted on a parallelogram and is balanced by an axial rotation mechanism on the centre section. The LEMKEN ABC (AdaptiveBalancingControl) system, whose centre of gravity is located below the pivot point, ensures good boom stability. The optional proactive boom guidance means that each arm adapts directly to the terrain or to irregularities within the crop. The continuous circulation system with individual nozzle control ensures good accuracy.
The 55-litre induction bowl has an edge humidifier with no fogging effect. A canister suction and rinsing system with secure transfer - Closed Transfer System (CTS) - is available as an option. The induction bowl can easily be pivoted into transport position and is ergonomically height-adjustable. Empty containers can be hung securely on the airtight lid so that liquid residues can drain off completely; they are then rinsed. All hoses are easy to maintain and are enclosed on both sides of the sprayer.
Orion has tank capacities of 4 000, 5 000 or 6 000 litres. The rinse tank holds 620 litres. Inside the tank, a powerful hydraulic jet agitator ensures that the spray mixture keeps its optimal concentration, even after a long period of inactivity. Thanks to the electronic gauge, the driver can check the tank contents at all times.
The low-hitch drawbar, always sprung, ensures a smooth ride. A load-dependent automatic brake adjusts the braking force and increases driving safety. Depending on the tank volume, Orion is fitted with a telescopic axle or a flanged axle, covering different track widths. Mechanical or pneumatic axle suspension is available, as well as a steering axle with Ackermann geometry and fully automatic, precise track following. With a maximum width of 2,55 metres, even driving on narrow roads is no problem.
Orion is equipped with ISOBUS, so it can be networked and is easy to use. The LEMKEN MegaSpray control system allows the implement to be operated both via the Opus terminal and via the ISOBUS terminal in the cab. Via agrirouter, the new multi-brand data exchange platform, the sprayer can easily be connected digitally, for example, to the Next Machine Management implement planning and documentation system and to the field management system.
