BIBUS in practice: Wingssprayer innovations

Wingssprayer is breaking new ground. With new techniques, they offer an appropriate answer to the increasing demand for drift reduction and other losses such as rolling off in crop protection. This rolling off is already causing more unwanted exceedances by chemicals in surface water which is not good for soil life. They help farmers spray their crops better, faster and cheaper. This is good for farmers, good for crops and good for the environment. This is their contribution to a sustainable agricultural sector. 

Innovations don't happen by themselves, pioneering requires determination, having the guts to break through boundaries to do things really differently, based on the fact that you know it works based on your own practical experience (37 years). The development of the Wingssprayer is the result of such a process. Years of testing and development, staying critical and continuing to develop by listening especially to farmers, critical government and water managers. And as a result, Wingssprayer is now able to apply effective techniques never before seen in agriculture. A product to be proud of and that they supply to their customers with pleasure and enthusiasm.

 

Not surprising was Wingsprayer's choice to approach BIBUS BV for the right technical solution to develop the Wingsprayer system. For years, BIBUS BV has proven to be a reliable and cooperative supplier of high quality technological products for the manufacturing industry. Crucial to the innovative Wingsprayer design are the oil-filled dampers that must function flawlessly under very harsh conditions. The long arms of the spraying system create the necessary torsional forces and the dusty conditions in the field are also a challenge for normal oil dampers. After Wingsprayer unsuccessfully tested multiple brands of oil dampers in their design, BIBUS BV advised them with a custom solution of application-specific Bansbach oil dampers equipped with, among other things, Bansbach's patented Ceram plus coating. The unmatched quality of the Bansbach oil dampers, the customized advice from BIBUS BV, and the innovative Wingsprayer design make the Wingsprayer spray system an ongoing success story.

Besides the oil damper, BIBUS BV also supplies a micro-hydraulic double-acting mini cylinder. With these micro-hydraulic cylinders, large forces can be realized in a compact construction. These very compactly designed micro cylinders can generate a very high force of up to 4,000 Newtons and have a maximum working pressure of up to 200 bar. Wingsprayer's system needs to be universally connectable to a diversity of tractors, this solution was devised precisely for this purpose and is therefore very well suited.
