24 POTATO GROWER | JUNE 2018 HARVEST EQUIPMENT Safe-T-Pull, Inc. • (701) 284-6100 • www.safe-t-pull.net Safe-T-Pull Pro The Safe-T-Pull system consists of a hitch that fastens to a truck's existing tow hook mounts, giving operators a centralized loop to pull from, and a hydraulically operated tow bar that mounts to the drawbar of a tractor, forage harvester, payloader or bulldozer. This system saves time and provides the added safety of eliminating dangerous ropes, chains and cables. The system is strategically designed to pull from both frame rails, reducing the risk of damage. It is also completely operable from the comfort of the cab, with no need to get out to hook up. Drivers can even unhook on the go. Converter Dolly The Strongbox Converter Dolly has been called by many names: dolly, jo-dog, converter, jeep… By any name it allows the operator to hook a field tractor up to a semi-trailer to load it in the field and return it to the headland without dragging trucks through mud or other unfavorable conditions. This helps reduce compaction and ruts in the field. Orka Food Technology The Wireless Potato Node, manufactured by Orka Food Technology, identifies the exact locations where potato damage takes place. It provides a real-time measure of shock, vibration, rotation, tilting and temperature to which potatoes are subjected, helping to monitor potato conveying, grading and packing installations and transportation from farm location to point of sale. The Wireless Potato Node identifies exact locations where potatoes are damaged, enabling appropriate corrective action to reduce bruising and losses and improving operational efficiency. Manufacturers of grading and packing machines use the Wireless Potato Node to ensure that conveyor systems run smoothly and are well-adjusted. Contact Orka Food Technology at www.wireless-potato.com.
