ROOT TRIMMER

Automatic pruning of single-stem trees.

Root Trimmer RT10

The Root Trimmer RT10 is designed to prepare trees efficiently for the next steps in the process, such as pruning or transplanting, using our patented technologies. The system can operate as a standalone unit or be integrated into a complete processing line. This reduces manual handling, lowering labor requirements by 5-6 operators, and helps maintain a structured and efficient workflow in daily nursery operations.

HOW IT WORKS

Infeed

Bare-root trees are placed in the machine.

Pruning

The tree is moved into position and pruned for 360°.

Waste removal

Cut roots are discharged via the integrated outfeed belt.

Outfeed

Trimmed trees exit the machine, ready for the next phase in the nursery process.

Speed up Root Pruning with the RT-10

Consistent Results

Every tree is pruned with precision for consistent performance and reduced rework.

Reduced Labor, More Output

Two operators can handle up to 600 trees per hour, safely and efficiently.

Built for Tough Conditions

Designed for high-volume nursery environments with minimal maintenance.

Cut Time, Boost Output

Benefits:

Efficiency: Processes up to 600 trees per hour with minimal manual handling.

Throughput: Continuous processing supports a steady workflow

Range: Trimming diameter 15-52 cm, trunk 6-18 cm

Reliability: Designed for intensive seasonal use

The Root Trimmer RT-10 is designed for bare-root avenue trees with straight stems, helping nurseries streamline the root pruning process while reducing manual handling. By automating a traditionally labour-intensive step, it creates a more controlled and predictable workflow. The machine maintains consistent output quality across a wide range of tree sizes, ensuring uniform results and reliable performance throughout the season, even during peak periods.
