Gravel Reclamation

Degelman rock rakes are the optimum tool to reclaim gravel from secondary municipal roads. Save money and reclaim up to 75% of lost gravel by pulling the material from the shoulder, breaking and sifting lumps, then depositing gravel back on the road where it belongs.

Pin Eye Cylinders

The Lion WP 3000 welded cylinder series is designed to withstand the most demanding applications on the market today. Lion’s extensive design experience has resulted in a premium cylinder with the latest in sealing technology. Standard Lion 1000 induction hardened rods provide the ultimate in corrosion protection and durability.

Image

Oversized Electroless Plated Nickel Pin

At 5.1 cm in diameter, these high-tensile steel pins are 60% larger than any other pin on the market.

Image

Bushing Seal

The wiper edge removes even the toughest dirt and contaminants from the pin, keeping the system running clean and at its peak performance. The metal enclosure ensures a secure fit in the open housing, preventing expulsion of the wiper, even under extreme conditions.

Image

Excavator Tips

From loose dirt and crushed rock, to concrete and abrasive mining applications - the Degelman excavator tips are world renowned for high quality steel backhoe teeth. These cast steel grill tips provide the ultimate protection against high impact and high abrasion. The solid grill shafts are precisely milled to accept these teeth, and the tips are easily replaced by removing a simple roll pin.

Image

Round Solid Steel Grill

The grill teeth on the Rock King are made of round solid C1045 steel shafts. This steel is much stronger than ordinary mild steel and has a natural spring to it to resist impact damage. A Degelman grill is extra heavy, developed with the optimum sweeps and curves to separate rocks from stones. Every third tooth is welded to the frame to allow small lodged rocks to clear freely. The round profile itself is also the optimum shape with the smallest choke point to minimize jams.

Image

Precision Grill Control

The wheel placement created between the tractor hitch and the offset tires provides precise reactive control over grill depth, exceptionally important when working in soft and/or wet field conditions.

Image

Frame Design

Rock pickers are used in the most abusive and harsh conditions known in the agricultural and construction markets. Hitting, lifting and picking hard heavy stones puts enormous stress on equipment. A durable rectangular frame design is the heart of a Degelman rock picker. It supports these big loads and carries the weight of the grill and reel assembly. Even the inside corners are supported by heavy angle plates that tie the frame tubes together.

Superior Paddle Teeth

The paddle design starts with an over-sized, heavy wall tube. The teeth themselves overlap the paddle tubes to protect the tubes from damage. This small detail increases the tube strength, creates a more robust point of rock contact, prevents tube damage through bowing and reduces dents. This is but another example of the Degelman difference - no detail is overlooked.

Degelman Industries makes use of cutting edge production technology like robotically welded paddle teeth; perfect welds every time. Additionally, the teeth are fully hard surfaced by robot - a technique commonly employed in industrial applications that provides three times more wear resistance.

Image

Advanced Reel Spring Design

The reel spring assembly moves constantly under heavy loads and is designed to arc back under pressure and release. The spring is a heavy-duty compression design exclusive to Degelman, which has taken years to perfect. It works better and lasts longer than typical extension springs. Paired with this is a urethane puck that dampens vibration and minimizes backlash as the reel paddle decompresses. Finally, a simple bend integrated into the spring holder plate greatly increases the strength of the spring holder.

Image

Heavy Reel

The oversized reel plates are heavy and designed to withstand abuse. The reel side plates are laminated and incorporate formed edges that dramatically increase the reel's strength and providing a natural deflective surface. Small details can make a big difference.

Image

Superior Rock and Soil Separation

Degelman rock pickers are designed to pick stones quickly, efficiently and with a minimum of soil collection. The geometry between the reel and grill is designed so that the paddle makes the first contact, lifts and spins the stone onto the grill further separating the rock from the soil.

The unique interlaced grill and paddle teeth drop dirt easily onto the field. Even the bottom and rear of the hopper box make use of grated spring bar strapping to keep rocks in and dirt out.

Image

Large Stone Picking Capability

With a massive 30 inches of clearance between the paddle assembly and the grill, large stones are easily picked. These machines are designed to provide relentless heavy stone work day in and day out.

Image

Extra Plates, Extra Welds, Extra Strong

Backing into a rock pile with a weighted rock picker can damage key components. The hydraulic hose cover is welded to the box frame to be even stronger in a key crush point. The back of the hopper box is constructed of double walled formed steel as it receives heavy pounding by rocks in the hopper and the area most likely to become damaged.

Where crush damage and daily wear are more likely, areas have been reinforced to ensure years of trouble free operation. For example, the grill side plates have additional reinforcement plates added to counter head-on damage.

Long HD Swing Pole

The hitch pole, considerably longer and larger than typical rock pickers, is allowed to pivot, providing a large working envelope, superb visibility for picking rocks, and the ability to tuck the picker behind the tractor for narrow transport.

By simply pulling the pin, the machine is ready for field or transport. For more demanding operators, a hydraulic option is available and recommended for overall ease of use and perfect for precisely backing up to rock piles.

Image

Windrow Capacity

Operators that clear bush and pasture land often use the Degelman Rock Rake to place debris into neat windrows. Our Degelman rock pickers were designed to take the normally tough demands of a rock windrow. These windrows are often contaminated with sticks, stumps, crop residue and stones of various sizes and shapes. Degelman Rock King pickers are designed to work tirelessly for this exact purpose.

Image

Removable Tire Assemblies

Distributing weight and minimizing the pounds per square foot in soft wet conditions is necessary. These large diameter tires disperse the weight of rocks in the hopper and reduce the possibility of heavy rutting on your valuable fields.

We make changing the tire, rim or spindle a much simpler process by providing a single bolt through the spindle. Changing the running gear is quick and painless.

Image

Increased Ground Protection

Degelman Rock King uses Alliance 710/50 R26.5 agricultural tires, offering an extremely wide footprint and rounded shoulders for maximum flotation in any soil condition, minimizing rutting and soil damage. The Alliance tire design helps reduce the power required to pull, resulting in increased productivity and fuel savings.

Reversible, Replaceable, High-Wear Teeth

Increased carbon content means rake teeth are less prone to damage, and a robotic hard-surface treatment results in impressive wear resistance.

Individual teeth are easy to replace and can even be reversed to effectively double their lifespan before requiring replacement.

Exceptional Quality

A three-spring suspension system stabilizes the rock rake drum over variable terrain. This completely isolates the frame and driveline components from shock loading encountered when striking buried rocks and other obstructions. Drum height and spring contact pressure are hydraulically controlled and can be adjusted during raking operation to compensate for different situations in the field.

The tension springs are made of 12 gauge wire capable of absorbing 220 pounds per inch of deflection. Ample spring travel allows the RR1500 to keep moving over large obstacles in the field.

Image

Adapt to changing conditions using the standard hydraulically-operated drum angle adjustment. Through a range of 10 to 30 degrees, the drum angle can be tuned for different tasks - from aggressive raking to more complete soil engagement for levelling.

Offset the wheel height on each side of the rake to change the contact angle between the drum and the ground - known as feathering the drum - which is essential for breaking up clumps of soil and ensuring dirt-free windrows. Achieve a perfect offset using the bolted wheel brackets for problem-free adjustment.
