Last weekend, the General Agrícola company and its official distributor in our area called Ferropro, S.L. invited us to their new nebulizer presentation together with the NeoTwin system... it was a really amazing morning!!
Firstly, they gave a small speech to explain us about this machinery works, advantages, objectives, main features,... After that, we visited close fields where it had been prepared a field demonstration. We visited two different fields: the first had garlic and the second had barley. We could see how this nebulizer works with different configurations. Finally, all guest could taste a good banquet with wine, ham, Manchego cheese,...
This new system consists of an air turbine of 550 cm diameter (it can be axial or centrifugal according to the needs of the farmer) that distributes air through some PVC pipes what have holes to throw spray liquid and air (it uses venturi nozzles). One of the most important feature is that the farmer can guide the air curtain to fit the culture sprayed. Other important characteristic is that you can save liquid because if you use a column of air the liquid has bigger penetration in the crop with less litres used. This system is manufactured for suspended nebulizer from 400 to 2,000 litres and trailed nebulizer of 1,000 to 5,000 litres. The working width, pump, tank size,... farmer can configure to satisfy his needs.
The NeoTwin system is made to use in overgrown crops (garlic, onions, cauliflower, lettuce,...) because it allows us to put liquid in the most hidden areas of the plant due to air can move all leaves to give way the liquid. When the air disappears, the leaves can come back the original position. We could test it in garlic working with a pressure of 10bar (it uses a high pressure pump of ceramics pistons what can work from 1bar to 40bar)... all parts of the leaves were completely wet (it didn't happen when the NeoTwin system was switched off). Another important point is its price because they said us this system only raises the price about 15%.

Buenos días
ReplyDeleteEn primer lugar agradeceros vuestra presencia, el pasado día 12 en la presentación del sistema NEOTWIN y sobretodo agradeceros el gran trabajo realizado, reflejado en este artículo.
Un abrazo

Hola Victor.
DeleteGracias a ti por invitarnos y por tu comentario. El nebulizador nos gustó mucho.
Saludos.
Hola
ReplyDeleteEs la primera vez que veo un nebulizador trabajar y me salen varias dudas:
Qué diferencia hay entre un pulverizador y un nebulizador??
Para que tipo de cultivos se utiliza una máquina y otra??
Las dos son compatibles o una máquina es para un tipo de trabajo y la otra para otro tipo de trabajo??
Gracias!!.
Saludos.
Hola Miguel. Gracias por tu comentario!!
DeleteSe lo he comentado a la gente de General Agrícola para que nos de una explición técnica, ya que nosotros tampoco somos expertos en la materia.
Te puedo adelantar, que una de las diferencias es la alta presión con la que puedes trabajar con el nebulizador, por lo que puedes ahorrar líquido y penetrar más en algunos cultivos. Por tanto, esta máquina está más pensada para cultivos muy frondosos (cebollas, lechugas,...).
Saludos.
Hola miguel, y gracias por el interes mostrado.
ReplyDeleteHola Twins, farm
En pocas palabras la diferencia entre un pulverizador y un nebulizador, es que
el primero como bien dice su nombre, pulveriza, moja la vegetación, y el
segundo aprovecha el aire canalizado para, romper la gota en muchas mas fracciones y penetrar con mas facilidad en la planta, mojando todas las caras de la hoja con muchos menos litros por hectárea.
Como bien as explicado, se utilizan para cultivos más frondosos. para conseguir una mejor penetracion del producto y una menor condensacion.
La ventaja que nos ofrece el NEO TWIN es que podemos trabajar con aire y
sin aire. Con baja y alta presión, con lo consiguiente, tenemos una maquina
muy versátil y ideal para los agricultores de nuestra zona, que tienen un
poco de todo (cereal , ajos , cebolla, melones viña, etc…).
Sin otro particular ,
un saludo,
Victor L Guerrero
Hola Victor.
DeleteMuchas gracias por tus aclaraciones. Ahora ya está todo muy claro.
Un abrazo.
Hola a todos
DeleteEn primer lugar agradecer a Victor y Jesus por organizar la presentacion tan estupenda que pudimos realizar del nebulizador especial para cultivos bajos NEOTWIN.
Tambien dar las gracias por su asistencia a TWINS-FARM y la enorabuena por este reportaje tan magnifico sobre nuestra maquina.
Haciendo referencia a las dudas que comenta Miguel yo creo que Victor las a aclarado muy bien.
Un saludo

Hola Raul.
DeleteMuchas gracias a vosotros por invitarnos y por organizar este tipo de eventos para los agricultores de la zona... siempre es muy interesante el poder conocer máquinas nuevas y aprender de la gente que las fabrica.
Un abrazo.
