R3060

Indisputable craftsmanship, for over a quarter century

In 1989 Dewulf achieved a milestone with the introduction of the R3000, the very first self-propelled three-wheeled offset potato harvester with gooseneck steering. The striking harvester stood out from the rest thanks to unprecedented manoeuvrability and the ability to continue harvesting when others were forced to stop. Since its introduction, we have carefully continued to develop and improve the machine. In 2014 Dewulf presented the fifth generation of the reference in self-propelled 2-row sieving harvesters.

Always ready... anytime, anywhere

In wet or dry conditions, hilly or flat, the R3060 has earned its stripes through countless productive working hours. What you can expect from the R3060:

• Superior quality of the end product
• Maximum productivity under all conditions
• Extreme ease of maintenance

Optimum result ensured

With its standard equipment and additional options, the R3060 assists the driver in every way possible to achieve the best results when harvesting products such as potatoes. With the arrangement of the spacious new Claas cabin, Dewulf has created a very enjoyable working environment focused on the driver. The joystick operation and control-units for the harvesting and driving sections provide the driver with the luxury and simplicity required to operate the machine. The Scania DC9 385A Tier V Final (Ad Blue) engine generates a powerful 350 hp and will impress you with its smooth running and low consumption.

Step up to the next level with Level X

The right machine settings make a major difference in the harvesting process. With Level X, Dewulf brings together data, smart technology and automation to support the operator and get the most out of the R3060. This makes it easier to achieve the optimal balance between capacity and harvesting quality.

Level X is available in three different packages, each with its own focus and clear benefits:

• Level X Bronze: comes as standard and provides insights via the integrated IoT platform into GPS location, consumption, machine speed and mode, harvested area, productivity and more.
• Level X Silver: gives the operator greater control over the quality of the harvesting process with a state-of-the-art camera system, saved machine settings, Remote View, slow motion and casting integration.
• Level X Gold: takes automation to the next level. Based on sensors, data and AI-driven analyses, the machine automatically adjusts its settings to the crop, soil and conditions, with the aim of maintaining consistent quality while making optimal use of the machine’s capacity.

Flexible for various vegetable crops: carrots, chicory, salsify, …

The R3060 is equipped with a QIS harvesting unit (Quick Interchange System) as standard, allowing quick switching between different harvesting kits. This makes the machine suitable not only for potatoes, but also for crops such as carrots, chicory, onions, flower bulbs, beetroot, turnips and salsify. Switching between harvesting kits takes just 15 minutes, making the R3060 highly flexible for a wide variety of crops.

Optimal haulm removal for every crop

Depending on the crop and conditions, the R3060 can be equipped with different solutions for precise and efficient haulm removal:

• Haulm topper: For removing potato haulm. Thanks to ADC (Automatic Depth Control), side-shift and its suspension on the front wheel frame, the haulm topper follows the ridges accurately, even in curves.
• Combitop: For vegetables where the haulm is no longer strong enough to be harvested with a top lifting harvester, the Combitop cleans the haulm right up to the product.
• Bed Crown Top: For topping carrots or salsify grown in beds. The unit can also be used to remove the layer of soil covering the carrots.

Multiple variants thanks to modular construction

Countries and regions each have their unique characteristics. That leads to specific requirements and needs for a harvester. The R3060 is therefore available in different variants to accommodate those specific circumstances. With a wide range of options, Dewulf offers customised solutions:
