Four Phase KLIMA Process:

1. Prepare

Wires need to be releasable, anything attaching wires to posts or attached to the wires need to be released so the wires can be fed through the KLIMA head. This is key to the KLIMA system as it utilises the wires to extract waste material.

2. Prune

A small number of skilled pruning staff undertake the initial pass making the all important cane selection and head positioning choices only.

3. Process

The KLIMA then lifts and extracts wires and surplus material clear of the replacement canes stripping and mulching in a single pass.

4. Complete

Fruiting wires are then reattached to the intermediate posts and canes are ready to trim and wrap.

The unique, patented cutting and feeding system is the reason the KLIMA G2 design is a universal and fully adaptable tool for your vineyard.
The KLIMA Cane-Pruner has halved our stripping-out costs and given my staff and I time to concentrate purely on making the cuts. Our need for casual, unskilled labour is now minimal and with the cost savings, we can afford to pay a better rate to our workers. The flow-on effects of the KLIMA Cane-Pruner has given us much more control in the vineyard leading to better canopy management, increased yields and improved quality'. 'For those who are resistant to removing the fruiting-wire staples and replacing them with nails or clips, I can tell you that we recouped the cost of doing that in the first season'.
