About the Vacuum Tea Collecting Machine
The Kademe vacuum-powered tea harvesting and collecting machine is a next-generation solution developed specifically for efficient, high-capacity tea leaf collection in the unique conditions of the Eastern Black Sea Region of Türkiye. Equipped with an advanced suction system, robust construction and operational flexibility, this vehicle-mounted unit enhances both collection quality and operational safety.
It enables rapid, hygienic and uninterrupted tea harvesting, reducing labor costs and minimizing product loss during collection and transfer.
General Features
High-Capacity Collection System
The vacuum unit offers a 27 m³ gross body volume, with a net usable capacity of 22.5 m³. This allows extensive, uninterrupted tea harvesting in large-scale plantations without frequent unloading.
Seasonal Versatility with Interchangeable Upper Body
Thanks to its modular upper body design, the vehicle can be repurposed for other agricultural or municipal duties during the off-season, maximizing year-round utility.
Roof Design Preventing Water Accumulation
The inclined and reinforced roof design ensures that rainwater does not accumulate, preventing structural fatigue and corrosion over time.
115 hp Vacuum Engine Performance
Equipped with a powerful 115 hp diesel engine, the vacuum system ensures uninterrupted suction power, even in challenging terrain or during long operations.
Vacuum and Transfer System
High-Performance Vacuum Hose and Suction Nozzle
The system features a Ø 254 mm food-grade vacuum hose and a wide suction mouth designed to collect tea leaves efficiently, directly from the field. This setup ensures minimal leaf damage and maximum transfer speed.
Low Noise Operation
The vacuum fan is designed for quiet operation, reducing environmental noise pollution, which is especially important in residential and rural areas.
Lightweight Aluminium Suction Mouth
The front suction nozzle is manufactured from high-strength aluminium, making it both lightweight and highly resistant to corrosion. This allows easier maneuvering and reduces wear on the hydraulic lifting system.
Hydraulic System
Hydraulic Components with Extended Lifespan
All hydraulic components are selected for long service life and ease of maintenance. The system includes a hydraulic oil reservoir designed to support continuous operation during long harvesting sessions.
Telescopic Cylinder Angle Optimization
The telescopic cylinders are positioned at a custom angle that prolongs the service life of the sliding curtains, which are used to direct the collected tea into the container. This prevents jamming and reduces maintenance costs.
Structural and Operational Advantages
Body Construction and Material
The container body is manufactured from AISI 304 stainless steel. Internal surfaces are easy to clean and resistant to tea leaf resin and plant moisture buildup.
Wide Service Access Panels
Maintenance and emergency interventions are simplified through wide service windows located behind the curtain system, allowing technicians to access internal components without disassembling the entire structure.
Chassis Compatibility and Load Distribution
The upper module is compatible with a wide range of standard truck chassis. Its lightweight design ensures better load distribution and preserves the vehicle’s structural integrity during full-capacity operations.
Operator Support and Safety Systems
Two-Stage Hydraulic Safety System
In case of malfunction or pressure failure, the integrated two-stage safety mechanism prevents hydraulic fluid from contaminating the harvested tea. This feature ensures product quality, hygiene and environmental safety.
Hydraulic Locking System
Designed to reduce risks such as accidental hand injuries, the hydraulic locking mechanism also protects the rear hatch during misalignment or overpressure, reducing the likelihood of structural damage under load.
Application Areas
This vacuum-powered tea harvesting machine is designed to meet the specific demands of tea-producing regions and municipalities. Its versatility, ergonomic design and robust performance make it suitable for a wide range of field conditions and organizational needs.
Tea Plantations in Hilly and Narrow Terrain
With its maneuverable build and high suction efficiency, the machine is ideal for steep and densely planted tea gardens, particularly in mountainous regions such as the Black Sea area. It enables safe and efficient operation even on difficult slopes.
Agricultural Cooperatives
Large cooperatives that manage multiple tea gardens can use this vehicle to optimize labor costs and harvest speed. The equipment is also compatible with telematics solutions for fleet monitoring and performance analysis.
Municipal and Public Green Area Operations
Municipalities and regional authorities can use this machine for leaf collection in parks, green belts and roadside tea cultivation zones. Its modular upper structure allows the vehicle to be repurposed for different functions during the off-season.
Export-Oriented Tea Producers
Producers targeting premium tea exports can benefit from the machine’s clean vacuum collection method, which minimizes leaf contamination and improves product quality during transport and processing.
Tea Research and Development Facilities
Agricultural institutes conducting R&D on tea quality, harvesting techniques or mechanization can deploy this vehicle to test automated collection methods in real field conditions.
Why Choose This Machine?
This vacuum-powered tea leaf collection vehicle combines cutting-edge engineering with practical field experience. Its durable construction, operator-centric design, modular functionality and fuel-efficient diesel engine make it an ideal choice for tea producers and agricultural municipalities. Whether you are working in the steep tea fields of the Black Sea region or managing public green areas, this machine ensures a faster, safer and more cost-effective harvest season.
