In keeping with the four-yearly tradition, one of the potato sector's most important trade fairs will soon again be held in Kain (Doornik municipality), Belgium. Dewulf has announced it will be attending the 2023 edition of Potato Europe, where it will be presenting two major innovations to the general public. The full-liner in potato technology will show visitors an extensive range of machines, both at stand 14 and in the demonstration area.
Unveiling of new innovations
At the Dewulf stand, the new machine in the planting technology category will be the main eye-catcher. To discover the extensive feature package, you will have to make the trip to Kain, but the manufacturer has already revealed that the machine will bear the name Certa 40 Integral. This cup planter has been designed in keeping with Dewulf's philosophy of combining soil cultivation, planting and ridging in a single pass. Optimal weight distribution between tractor, bunker and machine was also a core design principle.
In addition, an attractive addition to the range is also being introduced within the storage domain, specifically among the receiving hoppers. The MH 241 will now be available with the Scotts Evolution, an innovative cleaning module from the British manufacturer. This product-friendly solution allows users to sift out lots soil without stones and clods causing problems. The configuration of the demo machine at Potato Europe will include eight Scotts Evolution rollers, followed by seven PU rollers with Clean-Boost.
Storage
In addition to the innovative MH 241 with Scotts Evolution, the MH 241 with double stone and clod separator will also be demonstrated. The latter will be fitted with eight spiral rollers, in combination with a Smart-Pin. The MH is also fitted with six sorting rollers.
The storage line fleet will also include an ML 1980 X-stream store loader – 19 metres long and 80 cm wide. With the Premium filling function, this machine can fill a store fully automatically and in perfect layers, with respect for the product. Beyond that, use of the short, flat X-stream conveyor increases the processing capacity further, even over a 90° angle. There are also the MC 1780 & MC 780S conveyors to further guide the product flow. The two ME 100 elevator conveyors round off the range of store loader machines that will be presented.
Harvesting
Since its introduction in late 2020, Dewulf's Enduro has grown to become a spearhead of the machine builder's product range. The powerful, 4-row sieving harvester will also be demoed at Potato Europe, once again showcasing its unrivalled cleaning and extreme product-friendliness. Other aspects deserving of attention are its impressive sieving capacity, haulm processing, traction and large bunker. Dewulf's well-established 2-row machine, the RA3060, will also be present on the Doornik fields.
