Characteristics
The RPS snow plough consists of four segments and is one of the large ploughs by Riko Ribnica. With our know-how, experience and a long-standing tradition, we have ensured that RPS ploughs offer excellent performance and robustness. It is designed for professional snow removal as it can achieve high ploughing speeds. We offer a wide range of plough types and additional equipment.
Don’t be afraid to head into the snowiest and most difficult winter conditions with a robust and durable RPS snow plough.
Plough protection system
A proven and reliable triple safety system is based on the connection between the segment and the support frame in combination with pre-loaded springs and oscillating links, support skates or wheels and hydraulic anti-impact safety system. Oscillating links make it easy to pass extremely high obstacles. If the blade on the segment hits the edge of a shaft or another obstacle on the road, the plough segment moves backwards and up, and the spring on the segment creates a certain force that ensures a constant contact of the blade with the surface. After passing an obstacle, the segment automatically returns to the operating position.
Installation and mounting options
In addition to standard fixing plates and a three-point hitch, we also offer an option for installation on various types of vehicles or working machines. In the design and construction phases, we always follow all standards and ensure that mounting or demounting of the plough is quick and simple.
Drive and control
The plough is hydraulically operated via a control lever and/or an LCD colour display from the vehicle cabin. The hydraulic system on the plough consists of reliable proven components. The snow plough may be driven by a plough-mounted electro-hydraulic system (EHS) or a hydraulic unit of the vehicle. EHS is a simple solution for controlling the plough on vehicles that do not have their own hydraulic unit.
Blades
The plough is basically equipped with wear-resistant metal blades, rubber, polyurethane or combined blades can be installed if desired. The latter are used on surfaces such as granite, ceramics and the like.
