Description BAUER Rainstar drum

With the invention of the RAINSTAR system more than 50 years ago, Bauer revolutionised irrigation. Since then, the system has been constantly developed, incorporating modern technologies such as turbines and proprietary gearboxes. Today, the Bauer Rainstar family offers more than 100 models adapted to any type of crop and working conditions.

Rainstar is the perfect combination of technology, efficiency and durability. With solid construction, in-house manufactured components and a wide range of models, the Bauer Rainstar is the ideal choice for farmers looking for a complete and reliable solution for high-performance irrigation.

PE pipe produced by Bauer

The polyethylene pipe is manufactured in-house by Bauer to the highest quality standards. By controlling its own production, the company can adjust the wall thickness of the pipe to minimise pressure loss and save energy.

Galvanising for durability

All metal components in the RAINSTAR family are hot-dip galvanised, offering excellent corrosion protection and long service life.

Range of models

The RAINSTAR family is divided into several series, designed for different types of applications and needs.

Each series offers specific characteristics depending on field size, crop type and water flow requirements.

Advantages and featuresheie

  • Reliable, sustainable and efficient
    RAINSTAR models are built for maximum reliability and consistent performance. Hot dip galvanised steel construction combines modern technology with premium quality.
  • Easy access for maintenance
    The swivelling cover allows quick access to the gearbox and internal components, simplifying the maintenance process.
  • Solid supports for stability
    The hydraulic mounts ensure a firm hold on the ground and transmit force directly into the centre of the system, optimising the operation of the equipment during retraction.
  • Closed core drum
    The first layer of pipe is fully protected against mechanical damage, preventing premature wear and ensuring an extended service life.
  • Precision chain training
    The use of high-quality chain and laser-cut components ensures even force distribution and minimises maintenance.
  • Precise guidance system
    The double helical spiral guide mechanism ensures even pipe winding and reliable operation, even in difficult conditions.

  • TVR 60 turbine
    The heart of the Rainstar system is the TVR 60 turbine, a high-efficiency full-flow turbine with adjustable VARIO nozzles that optimise performance at different flow rates.
  • Bauer 4-speed gearbox
    The 4-speed gearbox allows precise speed control and smooth pipe retraction. Shifting gears is simple and safe, and the transport brake protects the mechanism when travelling.
  • Combi Trolley
    The trolley is adjustable in width and allows the pipe to be retracted symmetrically or asymmetrically. The high ground clearance design makes it ideal for tall crops.
  • Fine spray system (Water Boom)
    As an option, the Rainstar system can be equipped with a watering boom for fine application of water over large areas. This provides even and gentle watering, minimising water loss through evaporation.
  • Intelligent electronic control
    Bauer control units allow you to programme and monitor the irrigation process. The operator can set working times, pressure and duration and some versions offer remote monitoring via SMS or network connection.
