Our Story

The Turbo Speed System sent into retirement all the technology used until then. Greater reliability and improved performance.

The external belt and bypass were eliminated. The turbine was directly linked to the gearbox, with oil bath clutch and bypass inside the turbine itself.

The result was optimal functioning of the machine with minimal pressure absorption.

Raintronic, Aquasystem, Rain Control

The Raintronic tool was the predecessor of the current electronic systems for optimizing irrigation conditions. The first computer for managing the work of the rollers. With Raintronic, the agriculturalist distributed a homogenous amount of water over the terrain, controlling the hose rewinding speed electronically. With the passing years it changed its name, as it updated to increasingly modern and functional versions.

Raintronic yesterday, Aquasystem 4 and Rain Control 5 today.

Pelton Turbine

Patented by Lester Allan Pelton in 1879, this is still today the impulse turbine with the highest yield and is used for high heads and low discharge. It is often used in Alpine hydroelectric basin. The Pelton-type turbine was used in the first Ocmis irrigation systems. Of large dimensions and with external bypasses, it achieved good results but proved somewhat inefficient in the attempt to limit power consumption. Nor did the version with built-in bypass excel in its results. While it noticeably improved the performance and required less absorption, it remained anchored to a technology based on a variator/belt system to drive the gearbox.

Volumetric Turbine

The alternative to the Pelton, in those days, was the volumetric turbine. It used a hydraulic cylinder that needed a lot of power for the rewinding of the irrigator hose. This technology, too, proved rather inefficient from the mechanical and hydraulic angle. The water needed to rewind the hose was discharged at the side of the machine and therefore wasted.

This was the moment for a further change of technological pace. The VARIO RAIN system is part of the equipment of all newly designed irrigation machines. Its gearbox with synchronized speed change is the pride and joy of Ocmis production, one that is destined to last for a long time. Still lower pressure losses, greater user-friendliness, versatility, toughness and reduced maintenance are the advantages of the new range incorporating this system.

With GPS, the operator has full control of the irrigator.The path and the water jet can be adjusted according to specific parameters: wind, presence of obstacles, the shape of the field to be irrigated.

A new dawn for Ocmis customers.

New Pivot, Frontal Ramps and Hippodrome lines.

“i-CAN System” control system for aligning Pivot and Linear machines without electromechanical switches, but with an electronic encoder that reads in real time the disalignment between the two spans.

Until now, the spans of a pivot mounted on a self-propelling carriage, which reaches the end of the field in linear modality, are obliged to rotate by 180°. The machine, in its turn, has to start again in the opposite direction.

The Ocmis innovation is the alternative the market lacked. The machine extends the hose and allows it to turn around without ever stopping its activity.

Rollers with a motor pump on board, equipped with a completely electronic system for rewinding the hose.The advantages are innumerable, from lower energy consumption to.reduced maintenance costs.

Greater precision during irrigation activities and enhanced work speed (0-300 mt./h.).The permanent magnet motor introduces an unusual level of flexibility to machine speed management.

A system composed of data-gathering sensors and an artificial intelligence that analyses them, transforming them into precious information for the operator.
