Structural Apex: 1500 Kg for Maximum Penetration and Stability

The AWB-1600 CAR is structurally the heaviest in its class, providing the physical foundation necessary to stabilize high-speed digging and complex separation mechanisms.

1500 Kg Mass: The Ultimate Anchor for Depth Consistency

The 1500 Kg Empty Weight is the non-negotiable factor for stability. This massive weight provides essential downforce to ensure the digging share maintains non-wavering penetration, even through compressed subsoil layers or high-resistance Black Cotton Soil. This consistent engagement is foundational to minimizing tuber damage caused by shallow cutting or bouncing.

Multi-Web Separation System for Vine and Clod Elimination

The “CAR” designation implies the inclusion of the most advanced separation features (Kit C: Side Discharge + Deviner Web, according to sample page 22). This multi-stage system is crucial for:

1. Vines and Trash: The Deviner Web actively and aggressively removes vines, weeds, and heavy crop residue that often clog simpler diggers, significantly reducing post-harvest labor.

2. Pristine Tubers: The sequential separation (Primary Web -> Deviner Web -> Secondary Web) ensures soil and clods are cleanly eliminated before the tubers are deposited into the windrow, securing superior tuber quality.

Hydraulic Control for Adaptive Operation (2 Valves)

The 2 Required Control Valves empower the operator with dynamic control over the machine. This allows for real-time adjustment of both digging depth and angle, as well as web agitation speed, to adapt instantly to varying soil moisture and vine density, ensuring optimal separation performance across the entire 5-10 km/h speed range.

The Commercial Imperative: Securing High-Grade Yield

The AWB-1600 CAR is the definitive strategic asset for commercial growers who prioritize operational continuity and market-leading product quality.

Conquering the Most Challenging Harvest Conditions

The combination of 1500 Kg mass and dynamic hydraulic control makes the AWB-1600 CAR uniquely suited for the most complex fields—those with high vine density, sticky Black Cotton Soil, and high moisture content. The multi-web separation is designed to manage high material flow without clogging, maximizing the continuity of the 5-10 km/h harvest.

Low Tuber Damage and Optimal Storage Life

The structural isolation of the Trailed Potato Digger combined with the gentle, multi-stage separation ensures the lowest possible tuber damage rate. This superior quality is paramount for meeting strict standards for seed potatoes and processors, maximizing the tuber’s natural resistance to decay during long-term storage.

Applications in High-Throughput Agricultural Belts

The AWB-1600 CAR is the preferred solution for commercial harvesting in high-volume areas across India, such as Punjab and Uttar Pradesh, where the ability to rapidly clear 15-20 acres per day is essential for field economics.

Live Experience: Quantified Field Performance

We provide verifiable data and customer reports demonstrating the superior stability and separation efficiency of the AWB-1600 CAR in demanding conditions.

Customer Story 1: Eliminating Vine Clogging in Punjab

A large potato grower in Punjab was facing excessive downtime due to heavy field residue clogging their standard diggers.

The Solution: They implemented the AWB-1600 CAR Trailed 2 Rows Potato Digger for its Deviner Web separation system and 1500 Kg stability.

The Result: The farm documented an astonishing 99% effectiveness in vine and trash removal, eliminating the need for costly manual vine clearing crews and securing continuous operation. This resulted in a 45% reduction in harvest-related labor costs. The high throughput was maintained at 8.5 km/h consistently.

Customer Story 2: Depth and Damage Control in Deccan Soil (Maharashtra)

A commercial producer in the heavy clay profile of Maharashtra needed perfect depth consistency to avoid cutting tubers.

The Solution: They relied on the AWB-1600 CAR‘s $1500 Kg$ Empty Weight and utilized the 2 Required Control Valves to hydraulically fine-tune the digging share’s angle.

The Result: The stability maintained a near-perfect cutting line, resulting in a documented tuber damage rate consistently below $0.5\%$. This structural mass proved essential for predictable performance, confirming its value far exceeding the initial Potato Digger Machine Price in India.

Expert Knowledge Hub (FAQ & Technical Deep Dive)

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) about the AWB-1600 CAR Trailed Digger

• Q: Why does the AWB-1600 CAR weigh 1500 Kg?

  • A: The extreme 1500 Kg mass is non-negotiable for maximum structural stability and downforce. This weight is necessary to ensure consistent digging depth and to stabilize the complex multi-web separation system during high-speed, heavy-load operation.

• Q: What is the minimum horsepower (HP) required for the AWB-1600 CAR?

  • A: The machine requires a minimum engine power of 95 cv (HP). This power is essential to pull the 1500 Kg machine and operate the web conveyor and hydraulic functions at the high 5-10 km/h operational speed.

• Q: What is the key advantage of the “C” model’s multi-web separation?

  • A: The multi-web system (often including a Deviner Web) is optimized for fields with high vine and weed content. It performs a higher quality separation than standard models, drastically reducing trash carried into the windrow and minimizing post-harvest manual cleanup costs.

• Q: Does the extreme weight damage the soil structure?

  • A: The 1500 Kg weight is distributed to stabilize the digging process. By ensuring a single, clean pass at high speed, the machine minimizes wheel slip and repeated travel over the field, resulting in less overall soil disturbance than lighter, less efficient machines.

The Physics of Ultimate Separation: Speed, Stability, and Multi-Web Action

The AWB-1600 CAR leverages its 1500 Kg mass for foundational stability and its 2 Required Control Valves for dynamic control. This structural stability ensures the continuous, clean presentation of the potato mass to the high-efficiency, multi-web conveyor. The synergy between high momentum and precise, gentle separation is what maintains the lowest rate of tuber damage while achieving the highest tuber recovery at speeds up to 10 km/h.
