Machine Styles

Fixed Pivot

A circular move machine for the irrigation of large areas automatically. The pyramidal structure of the RKD central pivot is built up with galvanized-steel angular profiles and the bolts are anchored to a square reinforced concrete platform. This results in RKD pivots having a remarkable sturdiness and stability which allow it to handle the turning movements of the machine.

The pivot is water-fed through a vertical inlet pipe and elbow of varying sizes, to connect to various span configurations to suit a particular application.

Towable Pivot

The towable pivots operation is like the fixed pivot, with the added feature that it can be moved to irrigate in multiple areas. This considerably increases the irrigation area of a single machine. This system can be towed by a tractor or any other type of machinery to change position.

Multicenter Pivot

The multicenter pivots operation is like the fixed pivot, with the added feature that it can be moved to irrigate in multiple areas. This considerably increases the irrigation area of a single machine. This system is self-transferring and does not require a tractor or any other type of machinery to change position. This pivot is able to move sideways and may be guided by a furrow or a cable.

The revolving main cart has two driving wheels, used for the circular function, and it is performed by rotating the wheels 90º once the cart is lifted with the hydraulic lifts installed in it.

Linear

RKD Lateral or Linear Systems are suitable especially for irrigating rectangular plots and are guided by a precise system of alignment by means of a furrow or a cable.

The cart is mounted on two or four driving wheels and the feeding of the equipment can be accessed by means of a hose connected to one or more hydrants, depending on the dimensions of the plot and the volume of flow it must provide; or by means of a motor-pump group fixed on top of the main cart, which takes the water directly from a ditch to feed the system.

Hippodrome Cart

RKD’s circular and linear irrigation system. RKD hippodrome systems have been designed to irrigate square, rectangular or unusually shaped plots, allowing lateral irrigation and making the turn possible by pivoting at one or more points, internal or externally. They are able to irrigate when necessary, without requiring the anchoring of the central cart.
