About second-hand Carrot harvesters

Harvesting carrots is a precision task that demands the right equipment. At our company, you'll find a wide selection of used carrot harvesters from renowned brands such as Asa Lift (Grimme), Basrijs, and Simon. These machines come in various configurations and are suitable for different cultivation and harvesting methods. Whether you're a small-scale grower or operate on a larger scale, we're happy to help you find a reliable and efficient carrot harvester that fits your operation.


Various Types of Carrot Harvesters

Carrot harvesters are available as trailed, mounted, or self-propelled machines, with options for harvesting from one to six rows at once. Depending on your preference, harvested carrots can be collected in a storage bunker, on an elevator for big bags or crates, or directly into cubic crates. This allows the harvesting process to be perfectly aligned with your workflow, storage capacity, and logistics.

There are also important differences in harvesting techniques, mainly between clamp belt harvesters and bed harvesters. Each system is designed for a specific cultivation method: on ridges or on beds.


Clamp Belt Harvesters – Ideal for Carrots Grown on Ridges

Clamp belt harvesters are used for harvesting carrots grown on ridges. These machines use rubber ribbed belts that clamp onto the carrot tops. While a digging share lifts the carrots from below, the belts gently pull the carrots out of the ground by their foliage.

The carrots are then guided through the harvester, where rotating knives cut off the tops. Depending on the model, soil is removed from the carrots using shakers, brushes, or sieving belts. The clean carrots are finally transported to a bunker or placed on an elevator for further processing or storage. Clamp belt harvesters offer careful harvesting with minimal product damage.


Bed Harvesters – For Carrots Grown on Beds

For carrots cultivated on beds, a bed harvester is typically used. This technique starts with the removal of the foliage using a topper. Harvesting then takes place without foliage, which contributes to a clean and efficient process.

Bed harvesters are equipped with digging blades that lift the carrots from below. A sieving chain carries the carrots upward, allowing loose soil to fall through. The carrots are usually collected directly into cubic crates, supporting fast logistical handling of the harvest. Bed harvesters are especially popular in systems where the carrots are transported directly to sorting or cooling facilities.
