With lateral move irrigation systems that use ditch feeds as a water source, there are two ways to build the ditch-with cement bricks or geomembranes.
1). Cement bricks
The advantages of cement bricks are that they conserve water by reducing friction loss caused by earthen ditches, minimize erosion and invasive weed growth caused by irrigation, are easy to maintain compared to dirt ditches, and can be used in any field.

1. Lateral Move Center
In a lateral move center, water is piped from the ditch to the sprinkler. Because ditches provide a large quantity of water, you can use longer irrigation machines and water more of your field at one time. If the irrigation system is designed with two wings, the span can be longer than 800m, and if the machine is made to move 2,000m, the total irrigated area could be up to 160ha.

The capacity of the pump and diesel engine depends on the size of the land and water application rate as well as the working speed of the machine. Pump and diesel engines are installed on the center pivot's cart. An alternator is installed at one end of the diesel engine to produce electric power for the machine while a water suction pipe and boat are installed on one side of the cart to pump water from ditch.

3. Spans
The metallic zinc-plated spans are mounted on intermittent towers. Each comes with two wheels, an axle drive unit with electric gear motor and gearboxes on wheels; the electronic block of the system of the equalization and checking.

The truss design is the most important part of pivot irrigation systems. That's why Rainfine precisely calculates the structural mechanics and test are pivot systems in tough conditions. Our pivot structures are durable enough to withstand 20 years of work without bending or breaking.

The flexible joint design makes the pivot strong enough and flexible enough to encounter rolling or hilly terrain while in motion. Because the aluminum coupler will break if the spans are not properly aligned, causing water to leak and water pressure to drop, we've designed the control panel to switch off the system and stop the machine when the water pressure lowers. Rubber pipe fittings reduce water friction and resistance.

We use a high frequency electric heating system to heat both ends of the steel rods and a head forging machine to form them. When the rod is cut, the steel rod and the headed part have the same molecular makeup. This truss rod can withstand 60,000psi. We use 22mm diameter rods instead of 19mm, making our truss rods stronger than others on the market.

Gooseneck: M × M, M × F, M × B, Furrow arm and standard

Automatic welding process is used to make high quality and uniform span pipes. Using form drill technology developed in Germany gives gooseneck pipes a strong connection to pipe outlets, reducing any damage to the gooseneck when the sprinklers vibrate.

5. End Gun
It is designed with a corner control system for end gun.
When the pivot moves near corners, the end gun will switch on/off by solenoid valve so it can water more area. This valve is controlled by switches in the pivot center.

6. Sprinkler
The huge differences in crops, soils, farming practices and climatic conditions worldwide, coupled with the availability of water and energy resources, requires a range of center pivot sprinkler performances. Our sprinklers are designed to simplify the variety of choices into one basic and versatile group of center pivot products.

8. Filter
Though pivots only need one filter, multiple filters are good optional parts for when one filter fills too quickly with dirt. A cluster system composed of several filters can often be used for more than one pivot. For more effective drip irrigation, clients can choose segmented filter system.

9. Auto Reverse and Stop System
Due to factors such as the terrain, barns and houses, and other obstacles, the pivot may not be able to work a full circle. An automatic stop and reverse controls the pivot to avoid collision. A barricade on the last tower of the pivot works so that when hit by a sensor arm, the pivot will stop and reverse automatically. This system includes a control box, sensor arm, traverse arm, cable and springs, and collision prevention.

10. Shipment
Each span is packed into one wooden box with a clear packing list and instructions for easy installation. All wooden boxes are durable for safe exporting. A 500m fixed pivot (9 spans) can be loaded into a 1×40' HC container.

11. Installation
We will send our engineers to supervise installation. Normally one 7-span pivot needs eight people working one week for installation.
