Open the catalog to page 1The pyramidal structure of the RKD central pivot is built up with galvanized-steel angular profiles and the bolts are anchored to a square reinforced concrete platform. Both of these result in the RKD pivot's having a remarkable sturdiness and stability which allow it to handle the turning movements of The pivot is water-fed through a vertical inlet pipe and elbow, both made of galvanized steel of 8 5/8" (219mm) diameter, except model 450, which has a vertical pipe of 5 1/2" (139.7 mm) diameter. It contains a 13-way external electrical collector ring and an access ladder. The standard...

This is a self-propelled system and neither a tractor nor any other kind of machine is needed to change its It moves sideways, and may be guided with alignment performed by means of a furrow or a cable; all required security systems are provided. It does not require the turn of the tower's wheels The revolving main cart has two driving wheels, used for the...

RKD Lateral Systems are suitable especially for irrigating rectangular plots and are guided by a precise system of alignment by means of a furrow The cart is mounted on two or four driving wheels and the feeding of the equipment can be accessed by means of a hose connected to one or more hydrants, depending on the dimensions of the plot and the volume of flow it must provide; or by means of a motor-pump group fixed on top of the main cart, which takes the water directly from a ditch to feed the system.

Open the catalog to page 4HIPPODROME SYSTEM RKD's circular and lateral irrigation RKD hippodrome systems have been designed to irrigate square, rectangular or unusually shaped plots, allowing lateral irrigation and making the turn possible by pivoting at one or more points, internal or externally. They are able to irrigate when necessary, without requiring the anchoring
Open the catalog to page 5RKD produces all the frameworks with high-quality steel, manufacture and origin certificate, both for piping and rolled steels. Our pipes stand out from other brands thanks to the larger wall thickness (3mm standard), The structure is designed by means of computer-assisted programmes, entirely symmetrical, so that a completely regular curvature of the span is produced, which gives it a greater resistance both to its own weight and water contents, as well as to the lateral effects caused by wind loads. The whole of RKD framework is hot-deep- galvanized according to UNE-EN ISO 1461:1999...
