STABILIZER
To spray chemicals uniformly,
it is a primary issue to keep
the boom stable and always
parallel to the soil. The
stabilizer device has a key
role in matching this target,
especially when operating
at high speeds. On trailed
machines, booms are hung with single-hinge or parallelogram
devices between boom and frame connection. Oscillation is
reduced by gas-pistons or return-springs.
STABILIZER LoCK
A single ram can lock or
unlock stabilizer oscillation:
a pin is guided by a metal
profile into position, to
always get a quick and
reliable action independent
of stabilizer position.
HYDRO-PNEUMATIC
DAMPENING.
SIRIO has a nitrogen
accumulator
directly
connected to the cylinder
of the vertical lift; in
POMPEO this device
is part of the circuit of
parallelogram lifting. Boom dampening takes part
to oscillation reduction and prevents damages from
mechanical solicitations on most rough soils.
INDEPENDENT
GEomETRY
Cylinders on the top of the
first arm allow the two boom
sections to get different
angles from the other. This
function is very useful for
staying parallel to the soil on
hilly lands or hollows.
ALA 700
ALA 700 features bigger sprayers as large as 32 m of
working width. Last section folds sideways with no
risk of accident involving high tension cables. Boom is
featured with hydraulic lock of stabilizer, tilt corrector,
independent geometry, tri-jet nozzles and 1400 mm
hydraulic lifting. Hydro-pneumatic dampening is
installed on cylinders of parallelogram.
ALA 800
The most complete and professional boom from
ALA range, double folding system and the oblique
hinge of first arm make it extremely compact when
closed also in wider versions (32 and 36 m). Boom is
featured with hydraulic lock of stabilizer, tilt corrector,
independent geometry, tri-jet nozzles and 1400 mm
hydraulic lifting. For a top range configuration the air
sleeve “VENTO” is available on 21 and 24 m versions.
