Harvesting Technology - 2-row | EVO 290

Offset trailed machine, 2-row, 9 t bunker, for high output

The potato harvester, type EVO 290, is the logical evolution of the well proven SE-principle. This principle combines soil-sieving, crop-conveying and haulm separation in one single operation. Impressive performance meets profitable efficiency in this powerful 2-row, trailed potato harvester. Based on market requirements, crop handling and ground compaction protection could be maximised. As version "EVO 290 AirSep" GRIMME provides the first bunker harvester worldwide which is equipped with the unique, patented AirSep separator for stones and damp clods. Paired with Speedtronic, the machine makes work much easier for the picking staff, or even takes the work off their hands completely. The tricycle chassis, called TriSys, protects the ground due to its load distribution and ensures exceptional stability when unloading the enormous 9-tonne bunker. For maximum traction all three wheels can be driven hydraulically

EVO AllCrop

The new EVO AllCrop harvester has been specially modified for harvesting carrots, onions, parsnips, beetroot and celeriac in key assemblies. A significant change was made to the separators. Instead of the deviner web and the standard separators, two fine haulm elevators (steep hedgehog webs) are used.

Variable use

Depending on the cultivation method (rows, beds, flat beds etc.), a wide range of different vegetables such as carrots, celeriac, red beet or onions can also be harvested besides to potatoes.

AirSep

The revolutionary separator AirSep uses an air stream to separate trash from the crop stream at an early stage.

Unique performance

The very effective separation of stones and wet clods enables savings in picking staff.

Three Wheels with big advantages

Using the new tricycle-chassis, called TriSys, the soil contact surface can be increased by 65% compared to commonly used harvesters. Steering of all three wheels is standard and all wheels can be driven hydraulically.

VarioDrive: infinitely main web drive

The infinitely variable drive of the main webs is available for use in various conditions. The drive can be set independently of the PTO shaft speed of the tractor and can be reversed in case of blockages.

The largest in its class

The EVO 290 is the first trailed potato harvester with a bunker capacity of 9 tonnes. This allows high acerage outputs to be achieved and avoids double passage with a full bunker on long fields.

Real nonstop digging

The patented unloading bunker with reversing bunker floor and a capacity of 5.5 t enables non-stop harvesting with maximum crop protection. Compared to a conventional standard bunker, the digging capacity can be increased by 20 % to 30 %.

A revolution in harvesting technology! The AirSep is a pneumatic trash separator which separates stones and wet clods from the harvested crop. The separator works very gently with an uplift concept.

Benefits

  • Crop protection
    • Main webs with high-cam belt for optimum gentle crop handling
    • Reduced drop heights throughout the machine for a gentle crop transfer
    • Active running side bars at the 2nd main web, crop transfer without friction at the side walls
    • Gentle handling into the bunker, resulting from low drop height
    • Soft bunker floor, the bunker canvas is formed into pockets, which thus lead to a very good conveying effect.
    • Gentle handling of the crop at bunker emptying, crop chute available as an option for direct box filling and addtional gentle crop handling
  • High acreage performance and separating effect.
    • AirSep: Patented separator for the separation of stones and clods
    • VarioDrive: The stepless, power split transmission for the main webs
    • Long first main web for effective sieving
    • Intake web for higher sieving performance
    • The size of the second main web has been increased by 20 % in comparison to the SE 260.
    • Haulm separation with wide deviner web, separation from the tubers over the whole length of the deviner web, minimum drop height
    • 1st separator: Hedgehog web with triple scraper roller to separate soil and fine haulm
    • 2nd separator type ClodSep: Hedgehog web with Infinitely adjustable finger web, optimum setting of the trash separation
    • 2rd separator EasySep: Hedgehog web with double scraper roller
    • Bunker filling optimization to increase the bunker capacity.
    • 9 t Bunker capacity: This results in a noticeably smaller amount of so called "multiple overrunning" of wheels when the bunker is full.
    • NonstopBunker: Increased performance by 20 % to 30 % due to a gentle, continuous overloading during digging process. The revolving bunker floor enables the use of the whole bunker volume
  • Chassis
    • TriSys: Three wheels for improved protection against ground compaction
    • Maximum traction: All wheels can be driven hydraulically
  • Large-volume radial tyres for ground-protective driving on the field
  • Perfectly comfortable
    • SmartView: The video system includes a 12 inch touch screen with the feature to zoom-in, live slow motion, live image transmission via WiFi, Visual Protect Pro and the possibility to record the displayed image.
    • Visual Protect Pro: Automatically, simultaneous switch-on of several cameras, where a critical situation has been noticed (risk of a separator blockage e.g.), so that the driver can react and prevent further blockages or damages of the machine.
    • Speedtronic-Web: Completely automatic speed control of the main webs depending on the driving speed of the tractor and the load on the main webs.
    • Speedtronic-Sep: The load dependant and fully automatic speed control system for the separators and the picking web relieves the driver from manual tasks and increases output.
    • Visual Protect: Automatically switch-on of cameras, where a new adjustment was carried out or a critical situation has been noticed (risk of a separator blockage e.g.), so that the driver can react and prevent further blockages or damages of the machine.
    • ISOBUS operator terminal CCI 800 or CCI 1200, with intuitive operating interface GDI and diagnostic option, to realize a high operator comfort.
    • MemoryControl: For saving and "re-use" of specific harvest parameters
  • Versatility
    • The machine can be equipped with a windrow intake for the delayed, discontinuous ("two-phases") harvesting process.
    • Depending on the cultivation method (rows, beds, flat beds etc.), a wide range of different vegetables can also be harvested besides potatoes.
