B10 - By-pass clippers extra-fine cutting blade

These by-pass clippers are designed for harvesting oranges and apples. Manufactured of carbon steel, these clippers are heat treated for optimum strength and durability. The extra-fine cutting blade is designed to cut right at the peduncle and the ergonomic design fits comfortably in the hand reducing user fatigue. Additionally, the concave cutting blades help avoid punctures to the skin of the fruit and the counter-blade relief helps reduce scrapes and scratches to the skin of the fruit.

This particular range of scissors has been specifically designed to reduce the damage caused during picking. Rotten fruit is one of the main causes of economic loss of citrus fruit companies.

The use of conventional picking systems (by hand or with unsuitable scissors) is the cause of the main source of “waste” due to damaged fruits.

The Valencian Institute for Agricultural Research (IVIA) has certified that by using these particular picking scissors it is possible to reduce light damage by 64%, average damage by 33% and serious damage by 50%.

This type of damage, in most cases, is not detected in quality checks and the fruit arrives at the final destination as rotten.
