The first farming machine equipped with a vision system

The Pellenc design office has more than 10 years of experience with visionic technology, in particular for the development of automatic harvesting machines. This precious experience ensures Pellenc mastery of this cutting-edge technology. PELLENC has proved once again that comfort, work quality and productivity can go hand-in-hand with winegrowers' high-quality standards.

The information measured by the Vision Pruning Machine is shown in detailed maps that indicate the water and mineral balance of the grapevines on each plot of land. The data is integrated with the "Precision Winegrower™" to ensure the optimum management of your vineyard.


VISIO pruning machine at work

Visio pruning machine is packed with high-technology. Its new mulching disk is made of a new material with an extremely high elasticity limit. The patented PELLENC manufacturing process guarantees unsurpassed cutting quality. The Vision pruning machine greatly simplifies pruning work, as it eliminates the collection of vine shoots and reduces the grinding work on the ground. Final pruning time is reduced by 50 to 60% in vineyards with cordons and by 30 to 40% for cane pruning - the economic benefits of the tool are indisputable.

Lightweight, powerful and rapid

The steel used to manufacture the new mulching disks is a product of the latest technological advances. It provides increased strength and weighs 30% less than the previous version. Power has been increased by 20%. The new material made it possible to rework the shape of the disk to improve wire cleaning. The work vision has been significantly increased by the new colour of the disks.

The VISION pruning machine offers unequalled cutting quality thanks to the following features :
  • a Pradines blade cutting design
  • cutting quality that equals the hand pruner
  • low rotational speed (80 rpm)
  • increased safety: no projectiles, no wood-dust.
  • reduced wear on cutting components(no sharpening)
  • reversible mulching disks last twice as long
