Automated Irrigation Systems

Click to enlarge

This is a 6000 foot Irrigation system designed and installed at Millstone Farm, CT by Davies Steel Design. The farm needed a way to conserve water and water at the heart of the crop instead of using sprinklers. The system has a 4 foot head, is filtered with a 200 micron filter (industrial grade) and is both simple and effective in design, allowing the most technically challenged farm hand to carry out programming and maintenance.

Each of the 29 beds have Electronic timers allowing 4 different watering sessions per 24 hour period. This now saves the farm 22 labor hours per week, a huge saving for any organic farm.

Each of the 29 beds can be isolated when work needs to be carried out on the beds. The drip tape delivers a constant drip exactly where the crop requires for the reccomended amount of time. Cheap, easy and hassle free. This full system would cost around $8,000 installed with a maintenance and winterising contract.

Special Purpose Farm Machinery

 

I was approached by a local farm that had a problem with thier trailer overturning on steep slopes whilst carrying the spraying tank, at that time they were hand spraying using a gun which is extremely labor intensive, they asked for my help. I worked with them and designed a completely new system.

This trailer now sits 7 inches from the ground to the axle and lowers the centre of gravity nearly two feet, thanks to a 4 inch drop axle and a cleverly designed trailer. The gross axle weight is 3,500lbs and the trailer structure can withstand 10,000lbs.

The control panel is extremely user friendly. Each arm has a metering and isolation valve allowing complete flexibility of the system.

The arms can be folded down to spray a width of 16 feet, they don't lock down and are suspended with chain.If they strike a foreign object they are allowed to rise up instead of bending or breaking.

The arms can also be raised if only the centre spray system needs to be working for jobs such as driveway washing. The arms fold away and lock into position using locking pins, allowing easy use of the hand spraying system.
