ARCO

Garlic combine with top removal – chute into collection sack (1–4 rows)

The ARCO is a garlic harvester that – like the ARAT – lifts the plant out of the soil and cleans it, but instead of binding into bundles it separates the bulb from the tops: a serrated disc knife rotating at high frequency does this, cutting at a set (adjustable) height. Cleaned bulbs travel on a bar-type, stepped conveyor – which further cleans them of soil – and are gently delivered into a hanging collection sack. This is a solution for harvesting with minimal labour, where the tops are not needed for drying. All units are hydraulically driven (from the PTO), and the position and depth of the share are hydraulically adjustable. The ARCO-1/2/3/4 range covers 1–4 rows.

An engineer answers

ARAT ties garlic into bundles with the tops kept on (for drying). ARCO cuts off the tops with a toothed disc knife and drops only the bulbs into the bag — for harvesting with a small crew when the tops are not needed.

An engineer answers

ARCO-1/2/3/4 — from 1 to 4 rows, with side mounting of the rows; power requirement 70–110 hp.

An engineer answers

By a bar step conveyor, which at the same time cleans the bulbs of soil and gently lowers them into a hanging collection bag, without damage.
