Tong Engineering, leading UK manufacturer of vegetable handling equipment, has announced the launch of its next generation Fieldloader machine, the FieldLoad PRO.<\/p>\n
Based on the same principles as Tong\u2019s proven Fieldloader, which offers in-field and on-farm cleaning and loading of crop, the FieldLoad PRO has been designed with even greater flexibility, transportability and the gentlest handling in mind.<\/p>\n
HIGH CAPACITY IN-FIELD CLEANING & LOADING <\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cTalking to our customers, there is a definite emphasis on reducing \u2018crop miles\u2019 and the amount of harvest-related soil on the roads by loading crop at the field side,\u201d says Edward Tong, Managing Director at Tong Engineering. \u201cThe FieldLoad PRO will receive and clean crop at high capacities straight from trailers filled by the harvester, ensuring soil and debris is removed from crop in the field, whilst significantly reducing unnecessary transport of crop from field to farm.\u201d<\/p>\n COMPACT, GENTLE & QUIET<\/strong><\/p>\n At under 10 metres long in transport mode, the self-contained and compact FieldLoad PRO features a high capacity reception hopper feeding a choice of crop cleaning units. The FieldLoad PRO is built with a spacious 4-man inspection area before crop transfers to Tong\u2019s new-style foldable cart elevator which cradles crop deep into the bulker trailer. The new machine also comes complete with a super-silent onboard generator, which provides power efficiency for in-field cleaning, or can be bypassed for mains power when operating on-farm.<\/p>\n VERSATILE OPTIONS<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cWhat makes the FieldLoad PRO different is the multiple cleaning options available to customers, as well as the new wider cart elevator which can be specified up to 1.5m wide,\u201d says Edward Tong, Managing Director at Tong Engineering.<\/p>\n
