Those working with tall crops, such as vineyards and orchards, must regularly perform treatments to counter pests and manage prunings and spontaneous vegetation. To address these needs, Nobili has developed two distinct equipment ranges over time that meet these requirements effectively. Traditionally strong in the spraying and shredding sectors, the Bologna-based company has introduced new solutions for 2024 at Eima.
Among the sprayers, the “H Fan” models were launched, earning recognition from Eima for their innovation. The standout feature of these trailed sprayers, equipped with 1,000-liter tanks, is the hydraulically driven fan mounted on a sliding system adjustable in height with a 700-millimeter stroke. This system is powered by a diaphragm pump located on the pivoting drawbar connected to the tractor’s lift system.
Treatments That Reach New Heights
Thanks to these features, the “H Fan” models can adapt their operational height based on the crop canopy while remaining highly maneuverable in the field. The over-row sprayer segment also benefits from the addition of new multi-row “Ff Pro” over-row sprayer heads, which equip the “Ventis” series sprayers with a capacity of 3,000 liters. These systems can treat three full rows in a single pass, thanks to a fan paired with an air conveyor that ensures uniform air distribution to all outlet nozzles The nozzles are mounted on independently fed vertical pipes, ensuring optimal treatment uniformity across the entire leaf surface of all facades. These three vertical pipes are mounted on telescopic arms, enabling the treatment of vineyards with inter-row spacing of up to 3.5 meters and heights of up to 2.5 meters.
Shredders for Advanced Management
In the shredder segment, Nobili’s offerings include the “Blv 100” and “Sds 102” series. The former represents a new generation of equipment with outstanding operational capacity for shredding grass and prunings in vineyards and orchards. Robust and reliable, these machines feature a wide front opening, making them ideal for processing large volumes of material with the hammers and three counter-blades they are equipped with.
Up to 1.5 Meters of Lateral Reach
The lateral extension is also impressive, reaching up to 150 centimeters to the right thanks to a combination of wide hydraulic displacement and a second offset connection on the drawbar. This allows for shredding vegetation farther from the tractor while getting closer to the tree trunks. The new “Sds 102” shredders, on the other hand, focus on managing grass mulch, cover crops, and green manure in vineyards and orchards. With working widths ranging from 150 to 210 centimeters, the “Sds 102” models offer both single and dual-side discharge, with the option to operate via a front-mounted version with or without an independent hydraulic system. These tools enable proper mulching under the canopy while simultaneously cleaning the inter-row areas, processing large amounts of plant material in a single pass and placing it neatly at the base of the plants.
