The Volpi Super Bomber 295XL olive harvester is an electric machine designed to perform olive harvesting with a reciprocating horizontal movement.
The narrow head, with a working width of 49 cm, facilitates access even amongst the densest foliage, making the product suitable for trees with dense vegetation or closely spaced trees.
The telescopic pole, adjustable from 2.4 to 3.6 metres, allows the highest branches to be reached without the need for ladders in many situations. The net weight of 2.75 kg and the ergonomic handle with speed control facilitate continuous professional use, with direct control of the speed during harvesting.
The Volpi Super Bomber 295XL olive-shaking rake utilises a 12 V brushless motor that transmits movement to the prongs via a series of straight-toothed steel gears. The 4+4 quick-release glassfibre nylon prongs perform an alternating motion that transfers vibrations to the branches, facilitating olive detachment without the need for continuous rotation of the head.
The three adjustable speeds, up to 1,120 beats per minute, allow the intensity of the operation to be adapted according to the olive variety and the shape of the tree.
Key technical specifications
The main technical features of the Volpi Super Bomber 295XL olive harvester are:
- 12 V brushless motor: reduces the need for routine maintenance. The thermal protection system activates in the event of motor overheating.
- Steel gear transmission: motion is transferred directly to the rakes. This mechanical design is suitable for continuous operation.
- 49 cm narrow head: facilitates passage between the inner branches of the canopy. Improves precision during harvesting.
- 4+4 fibreglass nylon prongs: the quick-release system makes it easy to replace individual prongs. The material offers high resistance to stress.
- 2.4–3.6 m telescopic pole: allows the length to be adjusted to suit the tree. The 10-metre power cable, complete with clamps and connectors, extends the operating range.
- Multiple power options: compatible with a 12 V lead-acid battery, a 21.6 V cordless lithium battery and a 44.4 V–20 Ah backpack battery. Batteries are not included.
The Super Bomber 295XL is equipped with an advanced electronic control board for managing the brushless motor and the three operating speeds. The control unit also allows the use of different power sources — 12 V battery, 21.6 V cordless battery and 44.4 V backpack battery — by correctly regulating the power supplied to the motor and ensuring protection, reliability and consistent performance.
