Description:
Center pivot irrigation, a key in modern large-scale agriculture, efficiently waters vast farmlands. Its core is a fixed central pivot, the axis for rotating spans (50-60m long) supported by wheeled, motorized towers, forming large circular crop areas.
Under spans, sprinklers/drop tubes adjust droplet size for crops/soil, minimizing evaporation. Pressure regulators and flow meters ensure consistent water application, preventing over/under-watering.
A central control system, manual or automated, uses sensors to monitor soil moisture, weather, and crop needs, adjusting irrigation in real time for precision.
Versatile, it irrigates corn, wheat, fruits, adapting to flat or rolling terrain. Circular coverage suits large fields, reducing labor and soil compaction vs. flood irrigation.
Modern upgrades include variable rate irrigation (VRI) for tailored water delivery, solar power cutting costs, GPS for uniform coverage, and mobile apps for remote management.
With 80-90% water efficiency (vs. 50-60% for flood irrigation), it conserves groundwater and reduces runoff, aiding sustainability.
It revolutionizes farming, enabling precise, efficient large-scale operations, crucial for global food production amid water scarcity.

Advantages:
The center pivot is firmly fixed on the cement base to eliminate the force generated by the machine operating on irregular terrains, , so that the water supply pipe can rotate freely in a circle radius to irrigate the whole round field.
Application Area:
▪ Large scale land plots of square or round shape
▪ Terrain slope: ≤25°
The enforced standard pipes are normally carbon steel, their diameters are 6 5/8 inch(168 mm), which is 10% thicker than the competitor's top quality level.And they are effected the hot-dip galvanized process according to maritime standard.
If the water condition is unexpected hostile, the rubber liner inside the pipe will offer additional protection.
FAQ:
