Cranberry Equipment


Boom Spreaders

Having built the first boom spreader ever built (1984) you can count on us to be here now and in the future. We are proud to say we continue to build the lightest Cran-boom in the industry and, the longest producer of boom spreaders. Working closely with growers and their staff, allows our growers creative design opportunities they require to fit their individual application.

Combination of a large CFM fans driven by a power unit sized for your application makes application rates of one hundred pounds per acre possible. Exclusive stainless steel outlets creates the best random pattern of application in the Cranberry industry. Maintaining application rates with consistent spread patterns, allows our booms to hit target rates time and time again reducing stripping.

Our lightweight cost effective platform, forms one base to build upon for application of either wet or dry. Wet system utilizes Raven-metering components. Dry system utilizes Valmar metering components. Both systems control imputs resulting in better production.

Your choice of either Kubota or John Deere engine creates reliable dependable power source.

Use of aluminum within our booms design takes advantage of aluminums natural characteristics and benefits for our long reach design. Powder Coating the aluminum booms increases corrosion resistance adding to the life expectancy. Steel booms are available upon request.

Exclusive to Spooner Machine, Inc. is our abrasive resistant PVC pipe we have custom extruded. During the extrusion process we have ware resistant qualities incorporated within the PVC to deliver a superior product for longer life.

Our hydraulic ground drive has an efficiency rating of .985 for consistent application rates. Controlling imputs results in better crop production. Custom built axles are used on all of our trailers giving us a strong base to work from.

Training and assembly done at your site, creates complete understanding of the capabilities of all functions of your new boom spreader. When training is complete we continue support as needed.

Our Berry pumps come with an aluminum or stainless steel wash unit. Four leveling points, convenient remote operation allows operator complete control during cleaning operation. Hydraulic or manual lift of up to seven feet, minimum water storage at the top for washing increasing safety. Wash box design increases water flow rates while spreading the berries prior to entering the wash station for better cleaning results. Berry box is constructed from aluminum for convenient lightweight handling. Intake pumping rates of 500 barrels an hour when set up in good corral of berries with cleaning rates of 98% being typical.

Long Reach Attachment for Berry Pump Pictured here is our long reach arm attachment having the benefit of reducing setup time from bed to bed. It comes as a complete unit able to move independently using a single hydraulic lifting point, reducing all manual tear down.
