Hydraulic Shakers for Professional Fruit Harvesting
LIPCO, a manufacturer of hydraulic shakers, develops equipment for the efficient and tree-friendly harvesting of stone fruit, pome fruit, and nuts. The hydraulic trunk shakers grip the tree with a powerful, bark-protecting grapple and precisely transfer the shaking motion to the trunk or main branches. Our hydraulic shakers are designed to maximize harvest yield while minimizing the effort required.
Depending on the orchard layout, the HSA 10, HSA 30, and HSA 50 models are available for wide-row orchards, dense plantings, and high-performance industrial orchards. Operation is controlled from the tractor, which speeds up mechanical fruit harvesting and reduces physically demanding work on the trees. With a focus on durability, reliability, and user-friendliness, our harvesting technology offers an optimized solution for the challenges of modern agriculture.

Hydraulic shaker HSA 10 for wide areas
The LIPCO HSA 10 was developed as a high-performance hydraulic tree-shaking unit for wide-area operations and larger trees. The powerful, flexible, bark-protecting grapple can grip trunks with diameters ranging from 8 to 55 cm. For larger trunk diameters, suitable main branches can be gripped and shaken. The gripper pressure is infinitely adjustable.
Thanks to the hydraulic telescoping mechanism, the shaking arm can reach trunks and branches located far from the tractor. The HSA 10 is available with either two or three telescopic sections. The unit requires a double-acting control unit on the tractor or 1x pressure and 1x free return, plus a 12 V power outlet. This innovation optimizes harvesting efficiency and safety. Depending on the model , the reach to the rear is up to 5.60 or 6.60 m.

Depending on the model , the reach to the rear is up to 5.60 or 6.60 m.
Hydraulic shaker HSA 30 for narrow cultivation
For intensively managed orchards and close-spaced plantings, the HSA 30 offers a compact solution with high area coverage and a foldable grapple. Its hydraulically folding outer jaws make it easier to work between closely spaced trees, while the bark-protecting grapple grips trunks with diameters ranging from 8 to 25 cm. With its joystick control and automatic function, as well as a shaking unit with its own hydraulic system, it maximizes shaking output per hour and minimizes tree damage.
Depending on the application, the tree shaker can be mounted on the front or rear of the tractor and requires a double-acting control unit on the tractor or 1x pressure and 1x free return, as well as a 12 V power outlet. A lateral reach of 1.20 to 2.80 m and a parallel shift of up to 0.65 m facilitate positioning of the shaking head. The overrun brake is hydraulic, which improves handling and safety.

Hydraulic shaker HSA 50 for industrial plants
The HSA 50 is designed for high harvesting output in industrial facilities and professional orchards. Its compact industrial grapple grips trunks with diameters ranging from 8 to 52 cm. Hydraulic adjustment of the grapple’s tilt angle makes it easy to adapt to different tree positions. This technology eliminates the need for dangerous tree climbing and is operated from the tractor, saving time and offering convenience.
With a capacity of up to 300 trees per hour, this hydraulic tree shaker is particularly well-suited for operations that require high hourly output during harvest. An additional wheel axle reduces the load on the tractor hitch and improves lateral stability during operation. The gripper pressure is infinitely adjustable. The tractor must be equipped with a double-acting control unit, 1x pressure line, 1x free return line, and a 12 V power outlet.

LIPCO hydraulic shakers
Hydraulic shakers are an innovative solution in agriculture that have been specially developed for harvesting work. These implements use the power of hydraulics to increase efficiency and productivity when harvesting various agricultural products. They are particularly useful when harvesting fruits, nuts and other products that require gentle handling to avoid damage.
Hydraulic shakers work on the basis of hydraulic systems that transfer energy through the movement of fluids under pressure. These devices are equipped with shaking mechanisms that are ideal for carefully loosening and collecting fruit. By using hydraulics, the shaking movements can be precisely controlled and adapted to different harvesting requirements.
Advantages:

By using hydraulics, the shaking movements can be precisely controlled and adapted to different harvesting requirements.
Advantages:
- Increased efficiency: by using hydraulic shakers, harvesting time can be significantly reduced, leading to an increase in overall productivity.
- Reduced damage: The gentle shaking technique ensures that the fruit is less damaged, resulting in a higher quality end product.
- Adaptability: The devices can be adapted for different types of trees and plants, making them very versatile.
- Labor saving: They reduce the physical strain on workers as less manual labor is required.
Which hydraulic shaker is right for your orchard?
| Model | Typical Applications | Trunk diameter | Range / Movement | Shaking capacity |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| HSA 10 | Open-space landscapes, larger trees | 8 to 55 cm | up to 5.60 / 6.60 m toward the rear | depending on inventory |
| HSA 30 | Dense plantings, intensive plantings | 8 to 25 cm | 1.20 to 2.80 m laterally | up to 400 trees per hour |
| HSA 50 | Industrial Facilities | 8 to 52 cm | up to 3.00 m to the side | up to 300 trees per hour |
All three LIPCO hydraulic shakers are designed for professional use in fruit growing and can be attached to a tractor via a three-point hitch. However, the mounting options vary depending on the model. Key factors to consider when selecting a model include tree size, trunk diameter, row spacing, terrain, desired hourly output, and the available towing vehicle.
Hydraulic shakers for fruit harvesting
When harvesting apples, pears and other tree fruit, hydraulic shakers can be used to gently detach the fruit from the tree. This reduces damage to the fruit and improves the quality of the harvest.
Hydraulic shakers for nut harvesting
Such devices are ideal for nuts such as walnuts or hazelnuts, as they shake the nuts off the tree efficiently without damaging the shell.
Hydraulic shakers for olive and soft fruit harvesting
Hydraulic shakers also do an excellent job when harvesting olives and various types of berries, enabling a quick and gentle harvest.
