Autonomous hose reel irrigator RainRover
RainRover is an innovative self-propelled, GPS-guided hose reel irrigator mounted on a crawler chassis and equipped with a hydraulically folding irrigation boom with working widths from 30 m to 72 m. During operation, the machine automatically travels along the programmed tramline at the calculated speed while irrigating and laying the PE hose tension-free alongside the tramline. After reaching the opposite headland, it automatically returns, rewinds the PE hose and completes the programmed irrigation cycle. The machine then moves independently to the next programmed tramline and continues irrigation without the need for a tractor, manual hose handling or reconnection to the hydrant.
