Our dual bowl configuration allows you to produce with one dripper sort while another stands ready in anticipation of the next product change.
The consolidated frame lets you make set-up adjustments quickly in just a few simple steps. The operation of switching to a waiting bowl filled with new drippers takes less than half an hour. It is especially simple when changing to drippers of a similar size (e.g. going from non-compensated to compensated). More important dripper differences may require additional adjustments, but they remain quite simple with a second consolidated bowl. Changing the insertion tool and adjustments are easy thanks to preset positions and graduated scales built into the fixed frame.
The compact design of the dual-bowl keeps the line footprint to a minimum. The width of the line with a dual-bowl is identical to that of a single one. Quality settings are consistent and repeatable. Insertion start-ups and stops are fail-safe, which translates to low scrap when doing the change.
The dual-bowl concept is available as an option on all micro-drip irrigation lines for flat drippers, from /Enter to ///Explore, with thin or heavy wall product.
