About second-hand Bedlifters

Bedlifters are deployed for the harvesting of one growing bed in a pass. This way, for instance flower bulbs, carrots, chicory pens and sweet potatoes can be harvested. Bedlifters are mainly deployed on lighter soil types, such as sandy soil. This concerns the fact that the soil must be able to fall between the bars of the sieving web, as a result of which only the flower bulbs, carrots or other vegetables will be left. 

Functioning of bedlifters

The tyres of the tractor run on the outside of the bed, so the bed goes under the tractor between the wheels. A bed harvester has a digger (sometimes fitted with moving lifters) that cuts underneath the bed. Subsequently, the soil, together with the flower bulbs or carrots, will land on a sieving web. By means of beaters, the products are sifted from the soil and the sand. The suitable distance between the bars of the sieving web differs per type soil and of the crop that is being grubbed. 

Bed lifters with star cleaning 

In some cases the bedlifter is executed with star cleaning. This also ensures the transit of the product and the discharge of soil. 

Harvesting machines with elevator

Harvesters equipped with an elevator are also known as a harvesting machine with elevator. These harvesting machines with elevator are equipped with a discharge belt towards a kipper or trailer carrying cubic crates.

Box lift harvesters

Another type of bed harvester is the box lift harvester. With this type, the flower bulbs or carrots land directly into the cubic crate, at the end of the machine. This cubic crate is tilted, in line with the sieving web.
