The Microfit Herbi is part of the modular Microfit system, is a spinning disc sprayer for the Controlled Droplet Application (CDA) of herbicides. It can apply CDA formulations or traditional water-based products at total spray volumes of only 10-30 litres/hectare. The consistently large spray droplets of around 250 micron minimise the risk of spray drift and fall in a precise 1.2m wide circular spray pattern. Herbaflex and Herbi-Twin lances are available for narrower or wider band widths of between 10 cm and 2.4 m.
 
The Microfit Herbi is used worldwide for band spraying and can treat over 3 kilometres (about 0.4 hectares) in one hour. Uses include general clean-up, border, pathway or strip spraying (e.g. in orchards, forestry and plantations) and spraying of larger areas by making consecutive spray passes. The reduction in mixing and filling operations (with no mixing required with CDA formulations) offers operator safety advantages.

  • Light to carry and easy to use.
  • High work rate and economical.
  • Minimises spray drift.
  • Battery powered with no pumping required.
