Harvesting machine for green asparagus

The ASVerde is an electrically driven harvesting machine for green asparagus. The machine ensures that the harvester can move in a pleasant position above the asparagus row. Without bending over, the harvester only has to concentrate on selecting and cutting asparagus. The harvested asparagus is collected and taken on the machine.

Due to the low ground clearance and narrow track, the ASVerde is suitable for growing green asparagus on flat fields.

Labor saving

With the ASVerde, all heavy operations during the asparagus harvest are automated. The harvester can now fully concentrate on harvesting asparagus and will not be slowed down by peripheral activities such as carrying and carrying a box. This results in a labor saving of no less than 50%.

Reduce cost

With the ASVerde, the cutting performance of harvesters is increased. More volume of asparagus are harvested per hour. The labor costs per hour are simply spread over more asparagus, which reduces the cost price of asparagus.

Clear organization

With the ASVerde it is easy to divide the asparagus field into blocks. Each harvester is then responsible for his own block of rows. The harvest frequency can be determined by the number of rows a harvester has to harvest each day. In this way the organization remains clear and the staffing of the entire asparagus field can be better controlled and monitored.

Increase productivity

Due to the elimination of heavy work, harvesting with the ASVerde is lighter. This allows a harvester to plant more kilos of asparagus per hour. Because the work is lighter, more productive hours can be achieved in a working day. This results in a productivity increase of no less than 100%.

Controls

The ASVerde has a smart and clear operation. The driving speed of the machine is continuously adjustable and can be adapted to every harvester. Switches on the foot bars allow the machine to travel slowly and quickly, making it easy to travel from stem to stem. The steering system is completely mechanical. By pushing against the left or right foot bar, the machine moves to the left or right.

Drive

The ASVerde has an electric drive on both rear wheels. As a result, the machine always has sufficient traction on the asparagus field. The electric motors are sheltered high above the ground. The drive wheels are driven by chain drives.

Fixed battery pack

The ASVerde is equipped with a fixed battery pack. At the start of the working day, the harvester drives the machine including the battery pack to the asparagus field. The capacity of the battery pack is sufficient to be able to harvest a whole working day. At the end of the working day, the harvester drives the ASVerde including the battery pack back to the battery charger. Here the battery pack is fully charged again within one night so that it can be used again the next day.
