New dorsal boom with pivoting pont at the front of the tank

In order to meet the pumping unit requirements and to offer an efficient solution for every situation, Joskin extends its range and proposes a new galvanized dorsal boom with pivoting point at the front of the tank. Even when a wide spreading boom is fitted on the tanker, this configuration allows to increase the pumping depth and to not collide with the folded boom. You also save space on the machine, as this boom is completely folded on the top of the tanker.

Dorsal boom in unfolded position - mounted on pivoting point at the front (values vary according to the chosen configuration)

The dimensions of the boom elements - particularly the geometry of the first part of the tanker - are adapted to the configuration of the machine to optimize the performances and the handling. Kinematic is designed for:

  • a maximum lifting angle in case of pumping in an overhead tank or an off-ground storing tank;
  • a maximum lifting angle in case of pumping in offground storing tank;
  • an easy pumping on a funnel thanks to a design with small side clearance;
  • receiving a turbo-filler integrated in the boom or a latest generation submerged turbo-filler.

This three articulations design gives flexibility, speed and security thanks to an equipment designed to make pumping easier in all circumstances. Its rotation at 360° makes it a multi-functional pumping tool.

Specifications:

  • industrial revolving plate;
  • Ø 200 mm industrial anti-blocking valve (DA);
  • water drain-box with hydraulic discharge valve;
  • safety switch preventing the dorsal boom from completely turning several times in the same direction;
  • joystick for electro-hydraulic control;
  • 3 hydraulic articulations;
  • centralized lubrication at man's height.

Background:

JOSKIN offers many booms. In addition to this new model, booms with rear pivoting point, telescopic devices, turbofiller options are offered. A solution to every situation.

Dorsal boom with pivoting point at the front of the tank including:

  • support at the front of the tank;
  • Ø 200 mm industrial anti-blocking valve (DA);
  • safety switch preventing the dorsal boom from completely turning several times in the same direction;
  • joystick for electro-hydraulic control;
  • 3 hydraulic articulations (3rd articulation by hydraulic motor integrated into the knee-joint);
  • Dorsal boom box hydraulic discharge valve (closing at the same time as the rear valve)
  • 5 low-flow electro-hydraulic controls;
  • centralized lubrication with rod with greasing point(s) at man's height (EC-standard).

New hydraulic extensions on Drakkar

The Drakkar range is highly successful also thanks to the development of the 150 cm high bodies. These models have been designed to reduce the loading height (for potatoes, vegetables, manure, etc.). It means that the standard volume is of course reduced.

Therefore JOSKIN has developed new 80 cm high hydraulic extensions on the 4 sides. When loading low density material (for example : silage), thanks to these extensions, both the volume and the versatility of the machine are increased. When lowered, they make the loading operations easier with a loader and reduce the fall height of potatoes for example.

As a reminder, the JOSKIN DRAKKAR is a multi-purpose trailer allowing to transport many different types of material (silage, grains, pulp, beets, potatoes, etc.) for a high volume (from 23 to 58 m³). Moreover, the empty weight of the vehicle is lower thanks to the material used for the manufacturing of the side walls (reinforced UV-resistant polyester). The trailer has also a tapered body which enhance the unloading.

The particularity of the Drakkar is its high-resistance conveyor belt layed on the bottom of the body which rolls up and unrolls at the back of the trailer. During the unloading operation, the front wall which is connected to the moving floor is going to support the material without compressing it.

37,5 cm and 18,75 cm spaces on Solodisc & Terraflex

A precision agriculture goes along with modern tools, adapted to the most common uses but also, more and more, with a limited costs directed development and the respect of environment.

While reducing spacing of the injectors to 37,5 cm (previously 40 cm), this results a more homogeneous slurry spreading without increasing the spread quantities.

TERRAFLEX:

For a more conventional use, thanks to this reduced spacing and to the flexible tines (type Everstrong) 6,5 cm wide, the new Terraflex allows to spread reducing significantly the areas "without slurry" present between the injection lines. That dimension is the best compromise to avoid blockages of vegetable residues ( e.g. maize canes).

The farmer « 2.0 », willing to reduce the costs of his inputs, will be able to spread exactly in the seedling lines with the same machine. By stopping slurry feeding on one of the tine rows, injection is carried out in spacings of 75 cm.

Combined with a GPS system, the passage afterwards of a seeder will be made in the injector lines to use as much as possible the nitrogen input, which is essential to the growing of the plants and to avoid to spread where it's not necessary.

Terraflex XXL

Model - Working width (m) - Transport width (m) - Number of tines Spacing (cm) - Weight (kg)
5625/15SHK/2 5.625 2.85 15 37.5 1,650
6375/17SHK/2 6.375 2.85 17 37.5 1,875
7125/19SHK/2 7.125 2.85 19 37.5 2,075

SOLODISC:

The Solodisc XXL was designed in that state of mind. The spacing of 18.75 cm (against 21.5 cm on the other SOLODISCs) allows to meet the requirements of customers who want to improve the distribution of slurry and/or reduce the injection depth. This distance between the elements makes the injectors perfectly adapted to the arable grounds (such as cereals).

To keep the same weight of the machine while increasing the number of discs, those are now made of metal and NBR nitrile rubber and are twice lighter for a resistance to wear equally high thanks to the vulcanization. This reduced weight allowed the development of the Solodisc XXL whose maximum width reaches 8,25 m.

From the simple and logic idea to develop our injectors for a sensible growing method is born a new even larger range of tools.

Background:

Many studies show for years that the use of as slurry injector allows to limit losses, either with leaching with a perfect distributing or with a direct injection into the ground (limiting ammonia losses). A spreading with a scatterer may cause losses up to 100 % of the available mineral nitrogen in the slurry, depending on the conditions. There are two solutions at Joskin to overcome this disadvantage. The first one is the Solodisc meadow injector which will cut the ground with its disc and place the slurry in this slot. Since the contact between air and fertilizer is greatly reduced, ammoniacal losses will be lower than 15%. Then, the use of a Terraflex arable injector laying the slurry directly into the ground by means of vibrating tines will fully avoid this type of loss.

Solodisc XXL

Tornado3 Horizon: A precise and sturdy muck spreader

A powerful and accurate spreading table, combined with a narrow body spreader.

Two single axles models from the Tornado3 range can now be fitted with a spreading table (Horizon): the T5513/14V (14m³) and the T6013/16V (16m³).

This equipment benefits from the experience of the JOSKIN Ferti-Space Horizon. The inside length of their body measures respectively 5.5 m and 6 m long.

The Horizon swinging scatterer is made up of two horizontal beaters with Ø 600 mm (rotation speed: 300 rpm) and with two spreading discs with Ø 1.100 mm rotation: 425 speed rpm).

The ovoid shape and the entangling of the spreading discs allow their integration in 1.100 mm on a narrow body. This large diameter and their perfect synchronization with the horizontal beaters allow a wide and homogeneous spreading.

The inside of the canopy is padded with EPDM rubber to prevent the matter to agglomerate against the rear wall.

The spreading table was designed to crumble and throw on large widths all type of products (cattle manure, compost, organic wastes, lime, poultry manure, etc.).

The horizontal beaters and the spreading table allow to spread perfectly, even with a low flow.

These muck spreaders are standard fitted with a hydraulic guillotine door (whose opening height makes it possible to regulate the supply of the table with matter), a hydraulic canopy and a Ferti-CONTROL 4000 switch box. This box takes over all controls of the machine and also the DPA flowmeter (option).

As a reminder, the Tornado3 is a muck spreader with lowered narrow body made of HLE steel and wheels with a large diameter. Its high capacities and sturdiness are ensured by its body made up of successive folds and by a side reinforcing post.

Trans-Palm: Strong and reliable body from 10 to 16 t

JOSKIN has designed a new trailer for the harvesting of palm fruits: the Trans-Palm.
Based on the successful Trans-Cap, this trailer is simple, sturdy and can face all types of tracks. The sprung drawbar ensures a significant flexibility and protects the driver from shocks.

SPECIFICATIONS:

  • Tapered monocoque body;
  • 900mm wide chassis made of closed profiles to provide the machine with a significant sturdiness;
  • Single or double axle;
  • Payload from 10 to 12 t on single axle and from 12 to 16 t on double axle.

The body made of 4mm thick HLE 420 high tensile steel is not fitted with a rear door but with a scow rear end for an easy unloading. The harvesting of palm fruits for example requires a manual loading. That is why several body heights are available to allow a quick and easy loading.

EASY TRANSPORT

The Trans-Palm tipping trailer was designed to be packaged in containers, which increases the transport possibilities while reducing the freight costs. As an example, up to 4 units of Trans-Palm 4500/7C65 can be put in one 40" container.

Mechanical “VacuSTORM” System

Joskin, who got many years' of experience in the design of slurry tankers obviously proposes different pumps (vacuum, Storm, Garda, lobes and spiral pumps). In order to offer the most adapted system to each customer, a pump mix was designed, which we call
the VACU-STORM:

  • one VACUUM pump for filling;
  • one centrifugal STORM pump for emptying/feeding the rear implement.

These two pumps can be mechanically driven through a PTO-shaft by a reinforced monobloc transmission box. This process grants the performances of a proven system. The vacuum system (Jurop PN 155 and PNR 155 which offer a flow up to 10,000 l/min), efficiently integrated on the drawbar, creates an atmospheric pressure difference in order to fill the tanker. By creating a vacuum (depression) in the tank, the slurry is sucked up. The addition of a turbo-filler furthermore allows to optimize the filling.

The major advantage of the vaccum pump is to be well suited to all pumping situations (in pit, offpit, funnel, ...). It brings a large flexibility of use, especially to the contractors.

The centrifugal pump and its housing, ideally placed under the tank, grant a fluid and homogeneous slurry feeding and reduce the maintenance to a minimum. The stone trap, mounted before the pump, avoids any unnecessary wear. This design also allows a safe and practical access.

The STORM system pushes the slurry out of the pump thanks to the centrifugal power, created by the rotation of a propeller around an eccentric pump housing. The centrifugal pumping system designed by Joskin certainly reaches the highest flows (up to 10,000 l/min). Furthermore, the spread quantities can be easily managed by an electronic flow meter.
