3 GENERAL
BAUER LINESTAR 9000 is an irrigation machine consisting of a 2 - or 4 - wheel central tower and a quantity of
spans.
The LINESTAR is apt for rectangular irrigation.
The four-wheel models are non-towable, the two-wheel models are both non-towable and towable.
The system is supplied with water by the means of hydrants and flexible hoses. The two- and four-wheel central
tower is equipped with a diesel power generator providing the required power for the machine drive. The control
panel is also mounted onto the central tower.
The central tower and the truss elements (towers, spans) are electrically driven.
The joints (tower couplings) mounted in between the spans allow horizontal bending thus ensuring a straight run of
the system.
By varying spray nozzles and system speeds it is possible to make the water application rate match all
requirements of crop and soil.
The travel direction of the system is determined by a furrow drawn in the ground (furrow guidance), by a stretched
cable (cable guidance) or a cable laid below ground (induction guidance).
