Braud High-Capacity Grape Harvesters

PREMIUM QUALITY GRAPES

The award winning Opti-Grape™ system streamlines the wine making process from the vineyard to the winery by reducing time and labor costs while providing premium quality grapes. It is a premium system that delivers up to five times better cleaning performance by means of a unique, air-cushioned cleaning surface to remove as much material other than grapes (MOG) as possible.

ADJUSTABLE SETTINGS

You can adjust fan speed directly from the cab on the IntelliView™ IV monitor. A MOG collection plate supplied as part of the Opti-Grape system allows the operator to sample the rejected impurities. As a result, the driver can adjust their own sorting parameters, depending on the harvest conditions, the grape variety and the growers sorting expectations.

IMPURITY SELECTION

The air cushion surface enables a wide range of impurities of all shapes and sizes to be removed, such as petioles, stalks, bits of leaves, wood, stems, etc. It is also effective at removing dry and moldy fruit, and any botrytized fruit which may be present during difficult harvest conditions.

REVERSIBLE FUNCTION

When the Opti-Grape system is not required, automatic opening flaps and an in-cab reverse function directs all harvested crop into the hoppers.

CROP DISTRIBUTOR

A specially designed crop distributor uses two infrared level sensors, allowing the hopper to be filled completely and efficiently. The hoppers have been adapted to accommodate the Opti-Grape system without compromising hopper capacity.
