Features
Excellent fruit size and quality due to mechanical
ovary thinning with “Darwin”
Mechanical thinning of the ovary with “Darwin” is reliable
and more efficient than chemical methods and much
more cost effective than manual thinning.
There are fixed costs in chemical treatment, the success is strong
depends on weather conditions, temperature and other unpredictable
factors. You may also need to re-process
chemicals, often followed by thinning by hand.
With the application of “Darwin”, the result is immediately visible. To all this
annual uniform fruiting is achieved, as it disappears
the effect of periodicity, which is very difficult with the chemical alternative
achieve, due to significant difficulties associated with early
thinning.
Manual thinning is not achieved
the same quality of fruits, and also causes constant high
labor costs.

Control Panel
Stepless adjustment of the speed of the spindle is easy and convenient using the control panel from the driver’s seat, due to which it is possible to choose the optimal speed.
The set speed is displayed with 100% accuracy and automatically remains constant regardless of the speed of the tractor engine. With the help of the ESC-button (see photo on the right), it is possible to stop the spindle in case of trees with small color.
- 100% spindle RPM accuracy
- Infinitely variable spindle speed setting
- Spindle speed support regardless of engine speed
- Spindle short stop via ESC key
- Convenient control from the driver’s seat
