Slopehelper Blossom Thinner

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document describes the Slopehelper Blossom Thinner, an autonomous robot designed for vineyards and orchards by PeK Automotive d.o.o. It focuses on flower removal to regulate harvest development, offering a fully electric and autonomous solution that operates with or without GNSS.
Specifications: The robot is equipped with a brush-less motor (BLDC) and has dimensions of 2720 mm in height, 2315 mm in length, and 2282 mm in width. It operates with a sound power level of 60 dB and features automatic regulation mechanisms. The base platform supports complete agrocycle operations with a maximum speed of 5 km/h and can handle slopes up to 42º.
Features & Benefits: The Slopehelper Blossom Thinner offers several advanced features, including:
  • Autonomous Operation: Eliminates the need for manual expertise by automatically adjusting position, speed, and rotation settings.
  • AI and Cloud Integration: Utilizes AI support and the TeroAir application to monitor environmental and performance parameters, with data stored on a cloud server.
  • Dynamic Adjustment: Equipped with a special actuator system for optimal alignment with trees, preventing flower damage and ensuring uniform thinning.
  • Vertical Positioning System: Automatically adjusts height to maintain precise contact with flowers, compensating for terrain variations.
  • Bent Wire/String Tips: Innovative design for polymer wires/strings that ensures effective thinning without damaging future fruit stems.
  • Amortized Wires/Strings: Absorb impact forces for gentler contact with the canopy, allowing for increased operational speed and consistent thinning.
  • Precise Control of Rotation Speed: Automatically regulates string drum rotation speed for optimal thinning efficiency.
Applications: The robot supports various agricultural tasks, including leaf removal, soil cultivation, fertilizer application, pruning, fruit picking, and more. It is designed to enhance productivity, reduce labor costs, and minimize environmental impact.
Conclusion: The Slopehelper Blossom Thinner is a sustainable, efficient, and cost-effective solution for modern agriculture, addressing labor shortages and environmental concerns while maximizing orchard productivity.

Hinged attachment Blossom Thinner WEATHER RESILENT SENSORS DRIVE WITH OR WITHOUT GNSS Leaves & Flowers Control Flower removal in orchards to regulate harvest development Lateral blossom thinning in orchards is a crucial operation for maximizing fruit yield by regulating flower density. However, conventional blossom thinners are tractor-mounted instruments, requiring a highly skilled driver to maintain precise positioning relative to the row, adjust the correct inclination, and synchronize the instrument’s rotation speed with tractor speed. Any deviation can lead to overthinning, damaging the...

Hinged attachment WEATHER RESILENT SENSORS DRIVE WITH OR WITHOUT GNSS Bent Wire/String Tips for Superior Blossom Thinning Performance Conventional blossom thinners typically use either thick silicone rods or polymer fingers to improve thinning efficiency. However, these solutions come with trade-offs: • Thicker strings may be less precise, leading to over-thinning and reduced fruit set. • Thin strings provide better thinning precision but often damage future fruit stems and branches, negatively impacting fruit development. The Slopehelper Blossom Thinner introduces an innovative bent-tip design...
