INNOVATION AWARD AGRITECHNICA 2019 IN SILVER – Automatic All-Round Strapping Trolley
Careful securing of loads is crucial when transporting agricultural bales, but the
manual securing of loads with belts involves a high degree of risk for the operator
and takes a great deal of time that is in especially short supply during harvest.
The all-round strapping trolley from Agrarsysteme Hornung automates the proper securing
of loads with straps with comparatively little effort, and requires less than 60 seconds
to do so. The automatic lashing straps can be positioned as desired on the trailer. Swing arms at the front and rear wall lay the straps over the load.
Then they are automatically tensioned. This securing method also functions with partial loading and imprecisely positioned bales. Despite tight time schedules, this enables
the driver to comply with the requirement to secure the load, while the danger during lashing and for other road users when driving on public roads is considerably reduced.
