This paper presents a unique technical solution of berry fruit harvesting by
accurately controlled pulsations of air flow. A special harvester, which induces strong
turbulent fluctuations of atmospheric air from both sides of the plants, has been
designed and tested in the past fifteen years. It is towed behind a tractor, but also
equipped by own diesel engine that drive all hydraulic components and, indirectly, the
fan, pulsating air flow control units, machine leveling system and fruit conveyer. The
study is focused to operational parameters of the harvester, technical specification and
design.
