- Totally new dam forming system by All In One wins Agritechnica accolade
Growing potatoes in a specialist job and the requirements of a ridge former are as diverse as the soils in which potatoes are cultivated. Clogging due to remains of previous crops and intercrops are an additional problem in existing systems.
The new rotating ridge former developed by All-In-One GmbH enables uniformly shaped potato ridges to be produced in an energy-saving manner.
Thanks to the additionally integrated cutting elements, the remains of previous crops and intercrops are cut up and the risk of clogging familiar from existing systems is banished. The rolling ridge forming element requires little tractive power, significantly reduces the risk of damage when reversing and therefore vastly improves operability. The shape of the rolling elements also leads to good ridge formation with a structure that is more than adequate for air and water exchange.
Reduction of the erosion surface and sufficient percolation are achieved by means of paddles attached to the disks, with the former ensuring passive drive and perforating the space between the ridges at the same time. The structured elements in the ridge former can be exchanged individually and are manufactured from durable material, which enables long service lives.
The judging panel remarked that ALL-IN-ONE has significantly evolved and improved this technology with the rotating ridge former.
