The Clemens EasyFix ShootBinder is an advanced, labor-saving vineyard tool designed to automate shoot tucking and simplify canopy training. Built with both efficiency and sustainability in mind, this lightweight hydraulic machine uses biodegradable clips and tensioned cords to gently position lateral vine shoots between trellis wires — all while traveling at speeds up to 5 km/h.
Whether you’re a small grower or managing large commercial vineyards, the EasyFix system delivers consistent, uniform shoot positioning that enhances light penetration, air circulation, and disease control — without the need for manual tying or time-intensive labor.
The unit uses a 300-count clip magazine that feeds biodegradable staples into a rotating belt. The system draws a biodegradable cord from a spool, tucks shoots automatically between the wires, and staples the cord to hold everything in place. Clips degrade over time and can be mechanically removed post-harvest.
With a forward speed of 4–5 km/h, the EasyFix system can tuck up to 2 acres per hour, reducing labor needs by 70–80% compared to manual shoot tucking. This makes it ideal during peak growth when canopy management timing is critical.
The system is powered by a single-acting hydraulic valve (12 L/min), requires no PTO, and mounts easily via 3-point linkage or Clemens lift mast. A brake mechanism at the end of each row prevents cord waste and ensures clean finishing.
EasyFix promotes eco-friendly practices by using biodegradable materials that safely decompose under UV light. It eliminates the need for plastic ties and minimizes damage to vines and fruit clusters during training.
Perfect for VSP (Vertical Shoot Positioning) trellis systems and tight-row vineyards, the Clemens EasyFix is favored by growers for:
Reducing repetitive strain on laborers
Ensuring consistent canopy height and structure
Improving airflow and sunlight exposure
Lowering the cost and time spent on mid-season canopy adjustments
Operators report significant time savings during critical growth windows and higher quality harvests due to better light distribution and reduced disease pressure.
