Drilling precision and low seed drop height (below 10cm) always ensure the best seed positioning in the seeding row, the company says.
The Planter can distribute a wide variety of seed types such as rape seed, beet, maize and sunflower, or even zucchini or mustard.
The new fertilisation system features a spline distribution row by row, resulting in a homogeneous seed growth with a continuous fertiliser distribution in the row and an even distribution between the rows. The fertiliser hopper range is reinforced with new capacities of 2x190 litres, 2x260 litres, 950 litres and 1,350 litres for a volume adapted to the work outputs and required applications.
KMS208 and KMS412 control boxes enable controlling that the seeding operation is progressing smoothly. The control boxes can now receive hopper bottom sensors (fertiliser hoppers and microgranulator). For optimum seed distribution particularly on field angles, the KMD112 enables disengaging the row distribution independently in order to avoid an overlap of two seeding rows.
The seed hopper design has been reviewed and now delivers a 47L capacity while preserving a row spacing of minimum 25cm. This volume provides a large operating range especially when sowing maize.
The manufacture of the closing wheels has been completely reviewed, to increase the machine service life; the Planter 3 features double sealing systems with nylon flanges.
