D9 mounted seed drills can be used as a solo machine or in combination with all soil tillage implements for either conventional or mulch sowing. With this in mind, these seed drills can be equipped, from choice, with either WS suffolk coulters or with RoTeC Control disc coulters.
The D9 Special, in working widths of 2.5 and 3 m, is designed for small to medium sized farms. This favourably priced entry level range offers the smaller farm, or part-time farmer, the possibility to enjoy using AMAZONE quality. That means: No compromise on metering accuracy and seed embedment. Seed box sizes from 450 l up to a maximum of 850 l with a 400 l extension on the 3 m D9 Special.
The D9 Super in working widths of 3, 3.5 and 4 m is designed for the medium to larger sized farm. In conjunction with a coupling frame, the D9 Super is available even with working widths of 9 and 12 m.
On the D9 Super, with a 3 m working width, the robust design enables the seed box to be increased using extensions from 600 l to 1,000 l.
The AD-P Super pneumatic pack top combination, in working widths of 3 m and 4 m, is absolutely ideal for farm sizes of between 200 and 500 hectares or for agricultural contractors.
The benefits:
• work rates of more than 3 ha/h from a working width of just 3 m
• large seed hopper
• higher forward speeds
• unrestricted flexibility following the plough or when mulch sowing
• compact design – lower tractor lift capacity requirement
• reduced preliminary cultivation necessary thanks to the 55 kg coulter pressure on the RoTeC+ Control coulters
High work rates and first-class sowing performance: With these outstanding features, the folding Avant seed drill combination proves its worth with its ability to operate in practically every farming situation. In larger working widths of 4, 5 or 6 m, the professional end user can profit form the modular build design. The front linkage of the tractor is made practical use of by the seed hopper; no unnecessary ballast weights are required. So, with the seed hopper mounted on the front and the rotary cultivator, packer roller and sowing coulters on the rear of the tractor, the result is a relatively manoeuvrable combination with an optimum weight distribution that provides high outputs even in small fields. Quick and simple change round from field to field: Just fold up hydraulically, drive on to the next field, unfold and start work!
The new modern Cayena tine seeder is designed for rapid sowing, with or without prior soil tillage. Its strength shows through, especially on hard and stony soils, and in dry regions where normal coulters fail. No matter whether for coarse, medium or fine seeds, for mulch sowing, for sowing in ploughed ground or into stubbles, with its 6 metre working width, the Cayena proves its enormous efficiency. With operational speeds of up to 15 km/h and a 3,600 litre seed tank, the Cayena offers huge potential for maximum daily outputs.
Seed drills with integrated passive soil tillage are used whenever relatively cost effective sowing with high work rates is required. Conventional and, of course, more and more, conservation arable farming systems are included in the operational ranges. With the Cirrus, one has a machine, with which it is possible to achieve precision sowing especially in medium to high yielding areas yet with a relevant higher acreage output.
"Cirrus 6001 is a modern, beautifully crafted seed drill, well suited for an acreage output of certainly possible 5 ha/h", is the beginning of the result of the endurance test carried out by the dlz magazine. Tested was the Cirrus 6001 with RoTec+ Coulters.
