Description

Oliviero Flex BCT Olive Harvester and Shaker

Olive Oliviero Flex BCT Olive Harvester and Shaker

The Oliviero Flex BCT harvester and shaker is an ideal solution for olive harvesting. This model stands out for its lithium-ion battery that can be plugged in, which guarantees efficient operation. The telescopic design allows the pole to be adjusted as required, with an extension that facilitates harvesting from even the tallest trees.

The horizontal motion of the prongs provides greater effectiveness in harvesting olives, minimizing the risk of damaging the branches. The cordless system ensures maximum mobility, eliminating the obstruction of cables and improving work efficiency. This model is suitable for both domestic and small orchard use, offering a versatile and high-quality solution for operators.

Distinctive features:

Telescopic: allows the pole to be adjusted for greater adaptability.
Horizontal prong motion: allows efficient and gentle harvesting.
Cordless system: facilitates mobility without the clutter of cables.

Harvesting Head and Prong Motion Mechanics

Oliviero Flex BCF is fitted with 6 AX01 harvesting prongs on the head, a new patented material of exceptional elasticity and flexibility, unlike other harvesters on the market, which are fitted with carbon or plastic prongs instead. Such prongs are an impressive 35 cm to allow them to reach deep into the plant.

Prong motion: given their unique flexibility, the prongs bend under the inward or outward motion of the harvester head, mimicking the action of a whip.

The six harvesting prongs move in groups of 3 in a symmetrical manner. This motion mechanics, on one hand, allows the harvester to reach into the most difficult plants, guaranteeing very effective harvesting, and, on the other hand, minimises vibrations by optimising the balance and ergonomics of the machine.

The head of the harvester is angled at 18 degrees to the pole to facilitate the harvesting operation

Focus on the harvester head.

Thanks to the new prong technology, this machine increases productivity and reduces plant damage, with a maximum opening of 60 cm and a minimum opening of 10 cm.

Electric Battery-powered Motor

The Oliviero Flex BCF is equipped with an efficient power supply, thanks to an integrated and interchangeable 14.4V battery. It comes with an Energy Kit that includes a 108Wh battery. The included charger has three independent charging ports, allowing simultaneous charging of several batteries and optimising set-up time.

The 14.4V lithium-ion battery can be recharged at any time (just like the batteries of mobile phones, no memory effect) so it is always ready to use. It lasts on average 3 times longer than a standard battery. The battery is equipped with a convenient charge indicator.

Advantages of the electric engine:

More reliable than an internal combustion engine, thanks to its electric engine No spark plug, filters, oil dipstick, carburettors, etc. that is problem-prone components
Much lighter
Zero maintenance, for the same above-mentioned reasons
Lower consumption and drastically reduced operating costs compared to internal combustion engines (great results with minimal power required). In addition, the operator won’t have to constantly buy fuel (that should always be fresh).
Zero vibrations, again thanks to the electric engine. Whereas almost all internal combustion engines, which are not equipped with an anti-vibration system on steel springs, have a very high degree of vibration, making work very uncomfortable
Zero fumes, zero impact on the environment and, above all, zero repercussions on the Operator’s health.
Much quieter and therefore more pleasant to use than an internal combustion engine

Detail of the drive controls

Those who work continuously without ever switching off the machine (while others deal with nets and olives) with one battery can work for about 4.5 hours non-stop.

about the autonomy of lithium batteries

When using a harvester, the choice of battery depends on the practical needs of the user. The main differences between a base-mounted battery and a backpack battery concern freedom of movement and autonomy. The base-mounted battery is more manoeuvrable and lighter, but offers reduced autonomy. In contrast, the backpack provides longer working sessions, although it can be bulkier in tight spaces.

Base-mounted lithium-ion batteries offer greater freedom of movement. The lack of cumbersome cables improves agility when working between trees, making the harvester easier to manoeuvre. They are generally lighter than the backpak once, reducing operator fatigue, and make it easier to transport the device. In addition, handling is more intuitive, not requiring additional equipment such as a backpack. On the downside, however, they have a very limited autonomy and often cannot do a full day's work on their own.

On the other hand, lithium backpack batteries, while adding a certain amount of bulk, allow for greater energy capacity, extending the operational life of the harvester without the need for frequent recharging or battery changes. Their higher capacity allows long working sessions without interruption. In addition, shifting the weight of the battery to the back reduces the direct load on the arm and body, better balancing the overall weight of the equipment.

However, backpack batteries can be less ergonomic and uncomfortable in tight spaces or during quick movements between trees, and the presence of the cable can be an obstacle or obstruction during operation. Finally, the constant carrying of the backpack may cause more fatigue in the long run than an integrated solution in the product base.

Lithium-Ion Battery + Charger

LITHIUM-ION BATTERY AND BATTERY CHARGER INCLUDED

Battery equipped with quick release: the battery can be easily removed from the machine by simply pressing the quick release button.

Voltage: 14.4 V

Amperage: 7.5 Ah

The convenient battery can be recharged at any time, no memory effect (it does not tend to run out after many charge cycles), always ensuring great power.

Convenient battery charger included (it connects to the home mains as the charger of a mobile phone).

Charging time:

The battery is attached to the charger through the quick coupling, in the same way as it is connected to the machine.

Additional batteries can also be purchased for an extended working autonomy

Lithium Battery Advantages

LONGER RUNTIME: up to 3 times longer than conventional nickel–cadmium batteries, reducing the need for recharging during long periods of use.
Ideal for medium to large gardens.

FULL CHARGE FOR THE ENTIRE BATTERY LIFE: the charge of the lithium-ion batteries does not fade. Unlike nickel-cadmium batteries, which power gradually decreases, lithium-ion batteries, cells maintain constant power throughout the entire cycle. There is roughly the same charge for the entire cycle without reducing the motor speed. The battery operates at full
power until it runs down.

LONGER CHARGE DURATION: Lithium batteries boast 3-4 times more charges than conventional nickel-cadmium batteries, while having longer storage periods with less charge loss. Lithium batteries can be recharged up to 2000 times!

LIGHTWEIGHT: Lithium batteries offer the best power-to-weight ratio. On average, they weigh 1/3 of nickel-cadmium batteries.

ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY: Lithium-ion battery-powered tools are recyclable and are produced without heavy metals.

NO MEMORY EFFECT: Lithium-ion batteries can be recharged at any time without a negative memory effect; they are able to offer maximum power even after hundreds of charge cycles.
A few minutes of recharging is enough to provide the power needed to complete the job.

LOW DISCHARGE RATE: Low loss of charge rate (up to 5 times lower than nickel-cadmium batteries) so your machine will be ready to use even after months of storage.

BATTERY CHARGER: lithium-ion battery chargers reduce energy consumption by an average of 35%.
