Summer recap

As the long summer days slowly bid farewell and make way for autumn, we take a moment to reflect on a busy summer at HuizingHarvest. In this article, we’ll share the highlights of the projects we worked on and give you a glimpse of the tasks awaiting us in the coming months. Discover how we made the most of the season and what lies ahead.

Dealer Support

This summer, we supported dealers in Germany, Romania, and the Netherlands. Our team took charge of preparing a wide range of machinery, including combines, forage harvesters, and balers. This enabled dealers to keep their own staff focused on other key tasks during this busy period, resulting in timely delivery and the machines being ready for use on farms.

Although we managed the summer workload well, we found that we could have been more efficient by scheduling tasks earlier in the year. Of course, that’s easier said than done. Ideally, we would complete more maintenance work during the winter to ensure a smoother process during the busy season.

The reality, however, is often more complicated. Due to unexpected capacity shortages at dealers and changing customer demands, machines sometimes ended up at the dealer more frequently than planned. Thanks to our flexible approach, we were able to step in quickly and make sure the work was completed on time. This way, everything ran smoothly, even when things didn’t go as expected.

 

Our team was in charge of getting a variety of machines ready, such as combines, forage harvesters, and balers.

Dealersupport
Potato Harvesters

This summer, we assisted manufacturers with preparing and delivering machines, focusing particularly on potato harvesters. Our team of 3 to 5 technicians ensured everything was ready for shipment on time. We carried out rework activities, made customer-specific modifications, performed routine maintenance, and handled necessary repairs.

We are always on the lookout for individuals interested in this kind of work. Interested? Take a look at our job openings or join our upcoming webinar for more details.

Testing & Validation

A significant part of our work involved testing and validating various machine components, including sensors, wear parts, and the overall machine process. We conducted these tests under diverse conditions and collaborated closely with contractors and large agricultural companies across Europe and beyond. For instance, one of our technicians spent 8-9 weeks traveling through Europe in a specially equipped HuizingHarvest van to collect samples and analyze data.

Installations

In France, the Netherlands, Germany, and Belgium, we built storage sheds for potatoes and onions. Thanks to our flexible workforce, we were able to scale up quickly and complete the installations during the summer break, just before the harvest season began.

Upcoming period

In the coming months, we will focus on various tasks. We will assist with events, optimize combines for soy and corn, and improve the process for beet harvesters. Additionally, we will continue to support dealers and manufacturers.

A particularly noteworthy project we will be working on is the recall of agricultural machinery. Our technicians will be tackling this across several locations in Western Europe. While we can’t reveal the details just yet, it promises to be a challenging and interesting job for our team.

Let’s make it work!
